    Player name: MewingLoki

    Character name: Dribo

    A newcomer to the city of Peltarch, Dribo is a VERY outgoing little hin that loves taking risks and generally living on the expensive side of life. From gambling to entertainment, he dabbles in it all. Many times you can find him in the Dancing Mermaid or performing on a street corner, either way your bound to notice him. Currently he runs with a small band of hin of varyin abilities lead by the elegant Luther Swift. Aye, well enough of that now lets look at how he came to Narfell, "eh Chap"?

    He grew up in the slums of Calimport in a poor family. Like many halflings, he "acquired" things here and there. One of these items was a birdflute. He quickly developed a short tune that he took to the local street corners. As his skills improved, so did the tips in his lil tip bag, and thus so did his purse. Eventually he no longer had a need to steal things and began to enjoy living in wealth. Soon after, he was known well-enough that the local tavern owner hired him on as the nightly entertainment. With all of the extra gold he was making, he began to drink, flirt, and gamble quite often at the tavern. He quickly developed a taste for party-ing it up and having a good time.

    However, one to many drinks can lead to a bad situation as lil Dribo can tell you from personal experience. One night while celebrating after an exceptional performance, he downed one too many apple juices. Not feeling bad at all, he began to gamble as was customary for him. However, Tymora wasn't smiling down on her little party-animal that night. He quickly dropped far into debt to a local dwarf with an attitude. Realizing what he had done, he pleaded with the dawrf to allow him one week to come up with the gold, trusting on his streetcorner tips. However, many were not to keen on the idea of helping out the little hin in trouble with the local gang. As a result, the week neared a close, and little Dribo's debt still outwayed his income. Knowing what might happen to him and fearing any damage to his pink little self or his silky clothing, he snuck out of the city on a boat, going as far as the little money he had gathered would take him.

    However, Tymora smiled on him once again, for his funds ran out just as he landed in Peltarch. Almost completely broke and knowing no one, he really wasn't sure what to do. However, as luck would have it, he met the amazing Luther Swift who helped him get on his little feet. Soon forming a small band of hin followers, Luther became Dribo's most trusted friend, providing Dribo with funds, help, and friends.

    Most recently, he met a friend that has pledged to put in a word for him at the bardic college where he hopes he can bolster his abilities.

    "Good enough fer now, eh chaps?"
