== Background / Personal history: ==
Qigiq was born of an affair with a visiting elf lord who is not known to Qigiq. His mother tells him no more than his heritage. His grandfather disowned his mother and him from the family with a stipend to never be seen again. Qigiq lays the blame on his elven heritage for all his problems. He has become a guide and huntsman to help his mother and him, and doesn't cognitively recognize his own self-loathing. He has a skewed view of elven persons, and while not openly hostile can be passive-aggressively demeaning. 
Qigiq has never met his grandfather in his memory, he knows his name only. His grandfather upon seeing the mutilated babe's ears, knew what his daughter had done, and gave one of the trusted men a hefty purse, and told him to ensure they wouldn't be seen again. The man, took them half way to Niqamui, split the purse with the babe and his mother, and headed back to the estate. The money didnt last long and soon Qigiq and Penelope were on their own. Small town to small town, Qigiq grew into a woodman and eventually could make enough money that they moved into Niqamui. Madeline holds Howard to task, and still doesnt forgive him but has had only minor luck in finding Penelope. She knows Qigiq is a firebreathing kitten and keeps tabs on him. 
== Secrets: ==
* His eleven ears were mutilated at birth by his mother trying to conceal his heritage from his grandfather.
* His ex-fiance Heather is now betrothed to Tristal Silverleaf (an elf) he has not met.
== Things I'd Like To Explore In Future Adventures ==
* His own perception of elves. He needs some introspection here.
* His relationship with his grandfather (Howard Steel) (Qigiq knows of his grandfather, but doesn't remember what he looks like. Howard is very stubborn and he has no grandson. His Grandmother (Madeline Steel) has been working behind the scenes to try and make Howard come around and acknowledge Qigiq. Qigiq doesnt know Madeline either, but Madeline continues to keep tabs on Qigiq by sending patrons to Qigiq's woodsman service or now possibly FBK as well. 
* His own father is a mystery to him. He could find his father, however, no design has been thought to this person. GM direct Colab would be necessary.
== List of adventures: ==
*
* Episode 274 Roots Of Corruption, Qigiq met Bill and Armondo. He found some kindred spirits in the children cared for who echo imperfectly his own situation. He protected the children and encountered an Elf who was under the guise of mentoring the children using them also for manual Labor. Qigiq is decidedly not impressed with teaching through labor, but realizes its a job. He helps to neutralize some purple goo near this sanctuary, but unsure how effective this was as this goo corrupts those it touches and could travel easily in a host.
* Episode 278 Tales of the Wind, Qigiq meets Ivy and Collete. They travel to a floating island, and meet monsters. Some diplomocy ensues and Qigiq is faced with a purely Elven society whose longevity is why they receded from general society. Qigiq is thoughtful on the implications of this to himself.
* Episode 279 A Collaborative Effort, Qigiq meets Sadie and Arethor. He travels to a land called Albion where a collective nation is at constant war with a nation called Discardia. He meets an ancient elf with a drinking problem, and gets to help dispatch some agressors. He saves several people and Fluff is a hero again.
