Glimik

==Name==
Glimik Frostswindle
==Physical Traits==
Rather short, even for Goblin standards, Glimik is just touching 2ft 7". His looks are sharp and refined, aside from the stubble forming on his face. He has purple-pink eyes which light up whenever he catches sight of fire, drink and gold... obviously. Has brown, somewhat upswept hair, with loose locks dangling down infront of his face. His ears are quite big, and have numerous, plain looking ear-rings pierced through them. The ear-rings seem to possess no magical enchantment, and are probably there for looks.
His clothes are average for any spell-flinger. Firey orange silk robes, with black velvet streaks sewn on.
==Race and Class==
Goblin, Mage (Pyromancer specifically)
==Personality==
Despite the intense training in the arts of magic, Glimik is very much a relaxed individual, although he is somewhat on the socially inept side of things (studying in solitutde will do that, though), and comes across as rather shy and awkward. He is, however, able to make friends and those who are in good standing with him know that they have a caring and protective friend to turn to.
==Guild==
In Character: None. Out of Character: Mercury
==Occupation==
Has been under the tutilege of a one Archmage Velio for years, learning the arts of pyromancy. He has learnt the skills of Herbalism and Inscription; the former being there to help the latter - by crushing herbs to make the pigments for inks.
==Family==
Apart from his lack lustre mother and father, Glimik cannot recall any other relatives.
==Background==
His father was a slimeball; his mother a floozy, Glimik didn't exactly have the best upbringing... to be fair, it was pretty damn awful. He despised his parents as much as they despised him. Six years later, and a young Glimik was sold off (by his parents) to a skilled mage on the intent of the Goblin being the mage's slave. Ironically, this mage saw the arcane potential this little one held, and instead brought him up as an apprentice.
After that, life for Glimik started to get better, but it was still a rather hardscrabble lifestyle for him; he had to go out daily to collect herbs for the sake of benfitting his ability as a scribe. Not entirely the safest prospect when the herbs are out in the wild, where all sorts of nasties roam. Mercifully, the magics the young Goblin possessed were more than enough to keep these natural foes at bay.
As Glimik went through puberty (in all its awkwardness), the tasks set by his mentor steadily grew more and more demanding, reaching a peak when the pyromancer had to visit each individual Horde capital and obtain a reagent unique to that place. After that, the tasks grew into a mundane stream of studies and practicing spells.
==Family Background==
See above; father was a slimeball, mother a floozy.
...
Going into more detail... the Frostswindle family lived in the slums of Kezan, scraping by on mere copper coins. Glimik's father, in desperation, briefly tried to write and sell literature (he briefly tried to get Glimik involved on this aswell, who was four at the time!)... alas, there's not much demand on the Goblin market for "boring ol' books", apparently, so the business died within a fortnight.
==Criminal Record==
Has been charged with breaking the peace... once. Has also stolen some near worthless items on rare occasions.
==Personal Notes==
*Due to being a Herbalist, a rather uncommon proffesion for his kind, he's earned the unforunate nickname of 'Pansy'.
*Likes the odd drop of alcohol, although a... certain incident means he is forbidden to drink any booze whilst studying, or practising magics... infact, he's not really allowed to drink at any point.
*Bit of a day-dreamer.
==Quotes==
"Oh, spanners."
"I know what yer thinkin'. Ya see a Goblin and ya expect him to run off with yer wallet before you can even blink an eye. Well, lemme tell ya somethin'. I ain't so lowly as to do that."
"Tinkerin'? With all that mess an' fuss? Pah! Listen, pal, I'm gonna bring about a new age of tinkerin'... with arcane power!"
"Why can't we all just get along?..."
==Current Status==
In love with a young Blood Elf girl by the name of Alannasori - their blossoming romance has interfered with the Goblin's studies somewhat...
