"Meats for weeks! Oh, who's....me's? Happy rats people!"
==Persona==
Extremely curious, and friendly to almost anyone he encounters (to a fault), Skudge is a clumsy, compulsive hoarder. He can frequently be found collecting and storing items considered to be garbage or junk by most individuals, and even holding onto food items well past it's date of proper use. Above all else, he fears serpents, soldiers or guards, the sound of metal crashing, and running out of 'emergency food'.
==Origins==
Born under Clan Fa' Minara, buried deep below the then-beginning overworld venture by Verminlord Skrol, Skudge was found to be much less intelligent and coordinated than his counterparts, and after two-and-a-half decades, was dispatched on a 'secret mission' to the above world, supposedly by Ratnir himself, in an attempt to remove him from society.
==The Mission==
Steadfast in his 'mission' to wreak thieving havoc across the overworld, Skudge began his crusade by heading to the nearest settlement to him, a local winery. Finding it temporarily unguarded, he began rummaging through some of the stock which had been briefly left outside, only to be spotted and confronted by a wandering Foraith named Megandrel. Offering up some of the wine in exchange for his release, he and the traveler escaped into the nearby treeline and became exceedingly drunk, during which Megandrel fell asleep. Purely out of inherent nature, Skudge nearly began eating the Foraith before finding himself with a dagger to his throat. The incident was miraculously forgiven, even having strengthened the small bond the two had made, and both set out to accomplish their individual goals together.
==A Harrowing Encounter==
No more than a week after meeting Megandrel, the two travelers happened upon a head member of a group who called themselves Stolas, many of whom were scattered across Rathnir and Eldham. Accepting the offer to join, Megandrel and Skudge helped the group gather themselves together before, through democratic vote, all parties decided they would relegate themselves to the northeastern region of Eldham, seeking allies among the nation of Varn Torum. Leading the group just off the shores of Yaszuma, Skudge watched as the others began attempts to colonize the island without the nations knowledge, only to, as expected, be discovered and quickly overwhelmed by the threat of war with Yaszuma, one which Stolas could not possibly survive. Fortunately, thanks to the efforts of the now-towns diplomatic party, the alliance with Varn Torum soon extended to the support of much of The Northern Lights, including an offer from the nation of DonFuer for Stolas to establish themselves in their lands instead. Though hesitent at first to lose their ground, after further threatening enocunters with evnoys from Yaszuma, five citizens formed the Council of Stolas and chose to accept the offer proposed by DonFuer, Skudge being more than happy to follow closely as they evacuated the island and journeyed west to the fields of their future home.
