Backstory: Skab Cracktooth, better known throughout Verdant Hollow as "Stab," is perhaps the most average goblin in the entire Cracktooth Clan. Which is precisely what makes him famous. Unlike Mugga, he never became an adventuring legend. Unlike Grak, he never commanded armies. Unlike Grik'nak, he never became a Demon Lord. Unlike Urgol, he never mastered powerful magic. He is simply a goblin raider. A surprisingly experienced goblin raider. A goblin raider who should be dead. Many times over. Born several generations after Mugga transformed Verdant Hollow, Skab grew up during one of the clan's most stable eras. Unlike older goblins who endured tribal wars and starvation, he experienced a relatively organized childhood. This did not stop him from making terrible decisions. From a young age, Skab displayed an uncanny talent for finding danger. Sometimes accidentally. Sometimes intentionally. Usually accidentally. His military career began normally enough. Assigned to the Warrior Corps, he received standard training in scouting, raiding, ambush tactics, and survival. The survival lessons proved particularly useful. Within his first few years of service he had already managed to: - Fall into a monster pit. - Trigger multiple traps. - Get eaten by a giant cave frog. - Accidentally ignite an alchemical storage room. - Be trampled during a military exercise. Most goblins expected him to die permanently. Instead, he kept surviving. Or being resurrected. Often both. Over time his growing list of ridiculous experiences became legendary among fellow soldiers. Veterans stopped asking whether Skab was alive. Instead they asked: "How did he die this time?" The answer was usually entertaining. Perhaps the most infamous event of his career involved a captured dragon. During a routine training exercise, Skab somehow ended up sitting on the dragon's backside. Accounts differ regarding exactly how this happened. Skab claims he was following orders. Everyone else claims he was being an idiot. The dragon disagreed violently. Skab died. Again. Unfortunately, administrative confusion delayed his resurrection. This led to one of the most traumatic experiences of his life. Mugga discovered he was still dead. Witnesses report hearing her shout throughout Verdant Hollow. The lecture that followed targeted everyone responsible. Including several officers. Skab eventually returned to life. The memory never left him. To this day, hearing Mugga shout anyone's name causes visible panic. Many healers have attempted to diagnose this condition. Most simply describe it as advanced maternal trauma. Despite his reputation, Skab is actually a competent raider. Years of surviving impossible situations have made him unusually adaptable. He excels at: - Reconnaissance - Ambushes - Tunnel fighting - Scouting - Escaping disasters His instincts for danger are exceptional. Unfortunately, those instincts developed because danger keeps finding him. His relationship with leadership is complicated. Mugga knows him personally. This terrifies him. Grik'nak knows him personally. This terrifies him even more. Urgol treats him as a recurring administrative issue. Muzzuk maintains an entire section of resurrection records dedicated solely to him. Skab considers this unfair. Nobody else does. Among younger goblins, Skab has become something of a folk hero. Not because he is powerful. Because he is relatable. Most goblins will never become Demon Lords. Most goblins will never command armies. Most goblins will never achieve greatness. But they might survive another terrible day. Skab represents that possibility. He is proof that ordinary goblins matter too. The stories told about him are countless. The time he accidentally became bait. The time he survived a cave collapse by hiding inside a supply barrel. The time he got launched from a catapult twice in one week. The time he spent three days hiding from a monster that had died on the first day. Each story becomes more ridiculous than the last. Skab insists most of them are exaggerated. Unfortunately, many are not. To outsiders, Skab appears to be an insignificant goblin carrying a rusty sword. To the Cracktooth Clan, he is something much more important. He is the average goblin. The common soldier. The survivor. The unlucky veteran who somehow keeps coming back. Because while heroes and legends shape history, clans are built by ordinary goblins like Skab. Goblins who work, fight, complain, survive, and keep moving forward. Even when death tries repeatedly to stop them. And if Skab has learned anything throughout his long and painful career, it is a lesson he shares freely with younger goblins: "Monsters ain't the scary part." "Mugga finding out you did something stupid is."
