Garth

**Garth** is an NPC-turned-party member from the Houses campaign.

## Personality

Garth is considered by his cousins to be retarded. Only speaking in gibberish, Garth enjoys games, and was for some reason the one gifted with godlike powers unheard of to any gnome.

## History

After the party left the lean dimension for the first time, they were spat out in the Angolad Forest. They encountered a group of gnomes, with Grey Everwyn asking Garth who he is, being given the response "OOGDBOOGDABR." Confused, Grey persisted, asking him where they are. He then replied "ANGOLEHD." Grey gave up and tried drawing pictures to communicate with him, only being given a picture of a cabin in response. Another gnome spoke to Grey, apologizing for his "retard cousin", this "retard cousin" being Garth. The party noticed Garth has a floppy hat, compared to the straight ones the others have, being equivalent to a soft spot amongst gnomes. When Engelbert is shown the mushrooms Grey presented him, Engelbert responded that they are harmless mushrooms that make you glow, and that they are one of Garth's favorite snacks. Once they went into the house for the cook to make them a meal, Anna Sigewulf III said "hi" to Garth, to which he said "AGADABOOGY." Anna asked him for some marijuana, and Garth returned with associated leaves, none of which are cannabis. This invoked a screaming match between the two, which culminated in Garth beginning his iconic "pill game". Garth put out two hands, one with a blue pill and one with a red pill. Anna is asked to choose one, and picks the red pill, falling asleep. Elkos played as well, and picked the blue pill, winning the sugar pill, while Garth snuck some Viagra into his sword, making it straighten out. After waking up, Anna hugged Garth and adopted him, even though in human years he would have been a year older than her.

Once the party entered Pteven, Garth is gifted an ALF plushie by Anna, to which he replies "BABAGOOBY." There was a tech deck on the roof of the marketplace, which Anna instructs him to get. He did it without question, and responded with "GOBADOOGIBIDYBA."

During the party's trip to Ridgewater, Anna insulted a crab's mother before killing it, making it a meal for Garth. After Garth ate, he continued playing *Fortnite: Battle Royale*.

After Morticia brought a Xenozian tank to life, the party fought it, with it almost ramming Zulnut and Grey, though in the nick of time Garth saved the two, repelling the tank backwards with his arcane abilities. The tank was flipped over, but Garth was left exhausted.

During the leadup to the final battle with Morticia, Anna told one of her soldiers to make Garth king of Xenoz if she died in the battle. At the Reaper's camp, Anna said what she thought could be her final goodbye to Garth. When trying to convince Zulnut's gobliness to join them in battle, their suggestions didn't work, instead affecting Garth. After Grey got corrupted, Garth attempted to fight him, greatly weakening him for the party.

Once Morticia was defeated, Grey's otherworldly patron bestowed his powers upon Garth. Garth enjoyed the infinite ravioli granted by the party's one wish.
