Splug the Goblin

Born in the tiny mud pit that constituted his home village of Mung, Splug managed to survive to adulthood due to his propensity for grovelling and understanding of the word “run”. Splug eventually found somewhat gainful employment working under the morbidly obese chieftain, Balgron the Fat. In time Splug payed the price for his quick tongue and greedy nature. After telling an elaborate story to his workmates about a scheme by Balgron to poison their ale rations, and dilligently offering to “dispose” of the offending liquids, Splug was caught in a darkened storage room, more than a little inebreated and insulting an empty wine casks mother. His comrades promptly delivered Splug to Shnaril, the resident hobgoblin torturemaster.

It was shortly thereafter that poor Splug was found and released by a band of adventurers from Winterhaven. He is currently (albeit likely temporarily) in their employ.
