Avniv

```
“Where am I?”

```

## Early Life

After a small community was terrorized by a league of raiders, they decided they needed a protector. The smartest and most crafty people in the community grouped together to create a being of clay and metal. The community engineer created a strong endoskeleton for the body to support the body. The sculptor created a body made of clay to wrap around the cold steel. The community scholar enchanted the clay with a rock, enchanted with runic lettering placed into the back of the clay, to never dry and become another statue such as the ones in the courtyard. The rock began to sink into the clay being absorbed like a person in quicksand and with that the being arose.

## Middle Life

Defending the town for years and disarming many raids, he kept the village safe and happy and they decorated him in fine gemstones placed gently into the clay which held them in place. As the years went by Avniv began to learn the knowledge of the villagers, he copied their movements and mannerisms and they accepted him as one of them. Pillagers and zombie hordes were little issue for him being a little weaker than the average Iron golem. However on a particular rainy day he hears the horn of raiders blare throughout the sky so he quickly begins making his way to the village edge. Whenever he got there he quickly realized this was no normal raid, at the front of the line stood a looming suit of armor with an ax that makes trees seem like twigs in comparison. Its red eyes stared deep into Avniv’s being. Avniv stood tall, aware of the new enemy but not knowing of the meaning of fear. The armor quickly ran at him but by the time Avniv realized what was happening, there was an arm through his chest. Clay around the rough armor tried to connect together around the wound while the creature stared into Avniv’s eyes. A look of triumph flashed in the creature's eyes as he ripped out a small stone hidden within the chest of Avniv. Avniv crumpled to the ground as the armor stood victoriously in the rain.

Years later a young explorer, named Aris, stumbles upon a rock with runic words written upon it. He is aware that it belongs to a golem, perhaps an iron due to the inability for this climate to host snow, but all he sees is clay seeping into the ground on the outskirts of a ruined town. He crouches down next to the clay and firmly places the rock into the mud. The clay began to form and mold around the rock slowly forming a humanoid shape, Aris stared in awe as the humanoid awoke and the clay eyes stared into the white spotlight eyes of the voidling.

## Appearance

A steel endoskeleton covered in clay. The clay itself is not yet fully dry nor does it seem to ever dry unless extensive time in the sun, allowing the clay being easily molded into human-like features and able to sculpt others' faces and body parts after intense studies and time molding the clay. The clothes worn by it are similar to marble statues that were being gawked at and admired by others hoping to appear more like them. Small holes pop up around his body from bubbles beneath the clay rising up and popping when it reaches the surface. Is age 57 has been active for 3 years, dormant for 54.

## Personality

The main thing that drives this character is attention, the spotlight is where he lives and the spotlight is where he wants to stay. This drives him to need to have shiny things to drive attention toward him. Due to not being human, he does not understand how his decisions affect others but does mean well. He is also a trickster one thing he enjoys doing is attempting to copy a person's look and analyze their reactions but it means no harm to do so. Like fresh clay Avniv still has to be molded, he doesn't understand how the values of good and evil work, he knows human emotion and the scholar who made him created him with his sense of humor in order to have someone within the town to be comical with. However this is a con in the way that he always registers humanoid happiness and attention as a good thing which leads him to be easily manipulated.
