Trickster Tom is an ex-archaeologist kobold with a passion for finding (and stealing) hidden treasures and ancient secrets in excavations, proficient with the use of traps and crossbows. He is an expert in history and in avoiding traps. His knowledge of ancient civilizations and artifacts is deep, making him an invaluable companion for any expedition. He is accompanied by his friend Brick, a rat he found in the swamps while fleeing from his excavation. He was about to eat her when he discovered that instead of a meal he could make a friend. After all, kobolds eat anything, even stones and branches soup.
He's a sidekick character I made for my D&D campaign, at first he was just a passing character that my players would interact with and give them directions on how to proceed, but I grew so fond of his background story that I ended up developing him a lot more, and, successfully, my players also liked him that much that they ended up inviting him on the adventure and now he helps them with an important quest.
If he ends up being a character with much more relevance than he had in the last session, I'll draw him more, and even color him. (Such a shame that our next session will be until November, everyone will be so busy on the upcoming months, boo)
