1. Randomized / Character Generation. Eva Terra rolled physical dice on air.
2. What is this character’s name? - Goobles "Goob" Horseradish (He prefers "Goob," a childhood nickname given to him because he ate a specific kind of horseradish as a kitten).
3. What is their ancestry? - Tabaxi (Cat-folk).
4. What is your job or role? - Master Cobbler & Enchanted Footwear Artisan. Goob is an elderly, highly skilled cobbler specializing in "lifting shoes" (enchanted footwear that allows wearers to levitate or float a foot or two off the ground). Having retired to a quiet, mundane coastal town, he caters to both regular citizens and wealthy aristocrats seeking custom, high-end footwear.
5. How old are you? - Elder (A seasoned, aging Tabaxi with thinning, gray-yellowish tabby fur and deeply calloused working hands).
6. Describe your physical appearance. - Goob is an older, graying tabby-patterned Tabaxi with a thin, lion-like mane, yellow eyes, and subtle patches of thinning fur around his ears. He wears comfortable, unpretentious robes over calloused, working-class hands and speaks in a slow, deliberate tone—occasionally slipping in cat puns despite his stern, professional demeanor.
7. Describe yourself with 3 adjectives. - Reluctant, Patient, and Solitary.
8. What is a valuable item/piece of lore/secret that this character possesses? Or do they value an ideal/concept? - Ideal—Strict Professional Hospitality: Goob holds a deep, uncompromising commitment to professional etiquette, quality craftsmanship, and formal hospitality in his shop. He maintains a pristine, comfortable storefront and expects all business interactions to be conducted with dignity and respect.
9. What is a particular quest you would be willing to recruit or hire the player characters to go do? - Slaying the Shadowy Shoe Beast. In a rare moment of anger and poor craftsmanship, Goob accidentally created a sinister, animated pair of shoes that took on the form of a shadowy prowling dog. Ashamed of violating his own high standards, he hires adventurers to hunt down and destroy the shadowy creation before it terrorizes the town further.
10. What would be their reward for succeeding? - Masterwork Lifting Shoes or Custom Elegance. Upon destroying the cursed shoes, Goob rewards each party member with a pair of custom-crafted Masterwork Lifting Shoes (which allow levitation and grant advantage on Charisma/Persuasion checks due to their exquisite elegance).
11. What would be the consequence of failure or refusing the call? - Shoe-Cannibalizing Monster or Rival Party Triumph. If the party refuses the quest, a rival adventuring group (like a "Gary Oak" archetype) completes it instead and flaunts their new masterwork lifting shoes. If the party fails, the shadowy shoes begin devouring other footwear in town, eventually fusing into a giant, aggressive shoe-golem that blames Goob for its existence.
