Anki Waveryder

A longstanding presence of Kullinzios who has a very muddled past. Where this greenskin goblin comes from, why she still breathes the air, what goals she has are yet to be understood. All that is known is that Anki seeks an insatiable hunger for stolen goods, mostly serving plates and goblets.

## Description

A small green figure as many goblins before her. Anki has long black hair, an exceptionally long nose, and pointed ears. Unlike many goblins, she has burning red eyes and lower protruding tusks.

### Armor

Her armor is dirty rags and leathers she has claimed for herself over many jobs. Although she is rather handy at finding fancier clothes, she seems attached to her rags.

### Arms

Whatever items are available to her, often using glass bottles and table legs. She prefers her sword and ship-wheel shield.

## History

There is no given documentation of Anki's history, nor has anyone ever asked. There is something sinister about her life, potentially some form of trauma overcome. She seems to have a goal of sorts, which is unknown. She seems content when she steals, no matter what stakes are on the line.

## Personality

Explosive, thick-skinned, and manipulative, Anki is a bundle of rage with a purpose. For such a small creature she seems eager to put targets on peoples backs, whether or not they share like-minded thinking.

### Beliefs

Although there is not a mentioned god or gods Anki believes in, there are many writings about the Lady of Merth that she has collected.

### Relationships

**Dribs** - After spending quite a bit of time at Dribs' Tavern, Anki has had the pleasure of meeting a "likeminded" goblin of similar stature on a handful of occasions. Anki's determination of Dribs is that he is gullible and easily used for purposes that only a few people around her know. Dribs has been given an alias, like many that Anki possesses, and has yet to meet the real Anki. Dribs made an arrangement with Anki which he believes is a mutual benefit to his business, but has yet to figure out what is really going on underground.

**Rudolpho** - After recruiting Rudolpho and company for a major event that has become known as the Caravan Disaster, Anki has gained a fondness of the deranged and rather whimsical Rudolpho. His personality seems to parallel her own at times, although his ego might rival her own. She enjoyed the bonding experience during the kidnapping of Rowan and has seen him a handful of times beyond this encounter, even if he did not know she was there. She considers Rudolpho a necessary means to get things she wants.

**Grelka** - Introduced as part of Rudolpho's gang. Grelka is a blunt orc who says what she means and means what she says. Most encounters promise some form of violence to befall the individual in her way, making Grelka perfect for the task of roughing up guards on a caravan. Grelka was with Anki and Rudolpho during the kidnapping of Rowan and attributed to the memorable experience that Anki knows will haunt Rowan until the day he dies.

**Yen** - The little red imp with a fiery personality is a mirrored reflection of Anki's inner workings. Meeting upon the streets of River's Crossing, Yen showed promise of the life that Anki had become entangled in. With such promise, Anki was easily swayed to bring Yen into the life of thieving. Excelling with prowess at lifting light objects from people and chests, Anki brought Yen on to take part in the Caravan Disaster. However, ever since the slaughter that befell the Caravan, Yen had disappeared and Anki has not seen her since.

**Roslin** - The elf with connections to Vanessa of the Merchants Guild has been both a disruptive thorn in Anki's side, as well as a nauseating bundle of hopes and dreams that think Anki and the elf will one day be friends. Anki has made special arrangements to plague the House of Illumina and Roslin as a target of her common thieving. The reasoning behind this is not entirely certain, but it seems to have some connection to a plan Anki arranged that went awry. Anki holds a deep-seated grudge that has existed for a long while. In more recent days, Anki has been less present with her constant threat of stealing, even returning a few stolen goods with what appears to be a moral compass within her. Although, it is uncertain if this is another ploy or real.

**Rowan** - The fae sprite, Rowan, has had more than one encounter with Anki and they share a mutual understanding. If Anki is involved, there is likely going to be elevated blood pressure. There have been many goblin inspired changes that have occurred in River's Crossing to deter Anki's continued break-ins. Each one seems to test Anki as another obstacle in her way. One occurrence that Anki was involved in, but never connected to, was the Caravan Disaster, including the kidnapping of Rowan. The time spent was rather enjoyable for one side more than the other. Although Anki has no actual grudge against Rowan, his connection to the Merchants Guild seems to inspire her to screw with him regularly.

**Jeczuz** - Originally an assumed gullible and usable asset for the start of something greater for the little thief, Anki, those roots have since soured when the moral compass on Jeczuz brought the intervention of Hand of Illumina down on Anki's shady dealings. Anki carries with her an exceptionally spiteful grudge ever since Jeczuz went back on his deal with her and accused Anki of breaking her end of the bargain.

**Caleb** - Although encountered only one legitimate time, the wolf-man left an impression that still makes Anki's skin crawl. There have been many times that Caleb had caught the scent of the goblin. But there has been not an actual encounter to make good on the threat Caleb gave to her.

**Ylva** - The northern medicine-lady, Ylva was most known for her role with Crann Ar'Tuar. Anki has worn many faces towards this clan and towards Ylva. The greenskin goblin is most known as a thief of the clan while other aliases carry some form of uncertainty. Anki has been a thief, a messenger, and a miscreant towards many people around Ylva.

**Lorcan** - Another more prominent member of Crann Ar'Tuar. Anki has also had encounters with this individual with similar experiences. Anki has continued to use an alias that is in better standing with Lorcan, but it is uncertain if there is any trust towards the goblin. Anki has made her dealings with Lorcan minimal unless necessary.

**Neyn** - One of the least known encounters of Anki which has also played one of the most major roles in Anki's life. After discovering some greater talents that Neyn possessed, Anki sought out and executed what is necessary to turn Anki into the manipulative threat that she desired to be. There is a lingering presence over Anki's shoulder ever since Neyn and her met, but there has yet to be any repercussions for the act.
