Numbtongue

Character from The Wandering Inn by pirateaba

A Hobgoblin [Soulbard] who carries the ghosts of his dead brothers in his guitar — the last of the Redfang Five to stay at the Inn, playing music that makes even Drakes weep.

Also known as: Numbtongue, The Goblin Bard

What They Know

• [Bard]/[Soulbard] dual Class — can channel the spirits and Skills of dead Goblins through his music, including his fallen Redfang brothers
• One of the Redfang Five — elite Redfang warriors who were sent to kill Erin but chose to befriend her instead; the others died defending the Inn
• His guitar playing has magical properties — [The Ballad of the Brave] inspires courage, other songs can cause fear, sadness, or rage in listeners
• Carries Pyrite's memories and mining knowledge through his [Soulbard] abilities — can access a dead Goblin [Chieftain]'s tactical genius
• Fell in love with Maviola El, a human [Lady Firestarter] who used a rejuvenation potion — she died and he carries that grief
• Skilled warrior independent of his Bard Class — Redfang training makes him dangerous in melee combat with sword and shield
• Lives at The Wandering Inn as its resident musician and unofficial guardian — one of the few Goblins openly living in a Drake city's territory
• His existence at the Inn challenges Izril's deep-seated anti-Goblin prejudice — people come to hear him play and forget he is a Goblin
