Description My submission for the latest contest with Axl's Anthro Gang.

A new character who appears later in the Sanga stories. He's a former scout who went missing during a previous war under the dynasty of Sanga's mother. Sanga and Tyriq find he's escaped the enemy dungeons, though he's a bit crazed from the years of torture he's endured.

Kebalt is covered mostly in bandages, and wreaks of medicine and ointment all the time. Though the wounds don't stop him from kicking butt--he attained a high pain tolerance, you might say. Even so, he's an awful mess under those bandages, dealing with infection and fleas, and even the wild vultures are always circling him expecting him to drop dead. Kebalt is actually quite alive and lively though, if not horrendous.

he specializes in staff work and pole vaulting, though a slight cross-eyed problem sometimes keeps his depth perception misaligned, resulting in many a failed pole vault and often a messing landing.

regardless, When initially fighting him while he's crazed, Sanga is impressed that he puts up a good fight against her. She may also learn to love someone--that would be a first!

but the most keen thing about Kebalt is that his mind has been wired from torture to always tell people what they want to hear. Whether it's true or not. And he'll do it without a second thought, wether it's in the party's favor or not.

For example, when Sanga asks out of courisity if this strange Kebalt is a god, of course he answers 'yes.' Because he knows that's what she wants to hear. ^^

I based his design off something mummified. Like a partially mummified Egyptian cat. Even though he's not dead or even undead.

Dropping from the  pale yellow sky, wielding his stiff wooden pole and brandishing a gleaming blade as he lands upon the ground with a dull thud.

Looks like a very swashbuckling character, grinning madly as he dodges and weaves through  hails of arrows. And then sitting down when the night falls, and happily bragging to his friends about all the adventures he had. A really fun guy. ^^

He should be careful.
If someone asks if he can be killed, he is gonna say yes.

Ferroth In reply to koboldmasher [2016-08-22 14:05:47 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. But now he's got Tyriq and Sanga to look out for him.
