Shpegoober

**Shpegoober,** or Captain Shpegoober is part of *The Fungis* crew and is Captain of the vessel, **The Poor Bet.** He is a dwarven wizard and DM NPC played by Zachary Patton.

Born on Si'Bickall 33, 3437 PB, she was raised in an orphanage of Selûn in the town of Yezbün, Zej. She is the daughter of **Ravina Greenbottle**.

As a bard, her main spell casting focus is her magical lute (originally belonging to her mother, Ravina). She is a devout follower of The Pale Lady (Selûn). Due to her half-dryad race, she knows an assortment of bardic spells and several druidic spells. She is considered chaotic neutral and she is a member of the Bard College: College of Persona (homebrew).

## **Description**

### **Appearance**

Rowena is a humanoid of half-dryad race. Her mother Ravina Greenbottle was a halfling and her father is of unknown origin, but most likely was a dryad or half-dryad himself.

She is 51 years old (similar to 25 years of age of a human), 4 foot tall, and weighs around 57 lbs.

Rowena has a gently squared jaw, soft chin, with high-pronounced cheekbones, and a small button nose. Her eyes are a mix of purple with flints of green. She has large iris that fill up nearly the entire eye. Her hair is jet black in a dark room, but in the sunlight is iridescently purple. When her hair grows past her shoulders (which it is), tiny purple blooms grow throughout her hair.

Her skin is light green as if it is the young wood peeled back from the branch, texture and all.

She has a small tattoo of a bat on her left wrist.

Her magic is also presented outwardly as a mix of purples, greens, and grays.

### **Personality**

On paper, Rowena is the most charismatic of The Fungis. She is also the most proficient in Religion. She can be very deceptive and reclusive as well as unpredictable.

Her most commonly used spell is *Prestidigitation* and the rest of the party jokes about her necessity to clean her surroundings and herself. Her need to clean stems for her feeling of having lack of control in her life. She most likely has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder *(Jaci Butler, who plays Row has been officially diagnosed with the mental disorder herself.)*

She can be flirty when she wants to, but rarely acts on the remarks she makes. Due to her orphaned upbringing, she can be quite the loner and is used to being independent and relying solely on herself. She is constantly fighting the need to be a part of something bigger, and her party while also wanting to keep her distance. She very outwardly hates the Kefken Empire and is very vocal about it, even going as far as coining the derogatory slur, *Kefk*, when referring to someone who works for the Empire.

Rowena has seen much tragedy in her life and can sometime go to a very dark place because of it. Being a Bard of the College of Persona, though, she has mastered the deception of "putting on a good face" and grinning through the pain. Because of this, it's hard to really know her true feelings towards her allies and enemies at many times.

Rowena's alignment is currently chaotic neutral, due to her sporadic decision making and blatant hatred towards anyone remotely involved with the Kefken Empire early on in her journeys with The Fungis. This is possible/likely to change to neutral good as she has grown and leveled up. Her views seem to be softening as well as her impulsive behavior as she is learning many of her actions do, in fact, have consequences.
