wyx, the Arcane Trickster FES Character Sheet

Name: wyx

Sheet Version: v0.9

Description

wyx (they/them) is a small-sized brown-scaled kobold who wears a green tunic, shawl, and leather armor. They have horns that curve backwards, one of which is adorned with a gold ring, and ears that are pierced and adorned with 3 gold earrings on either side. Under the earrings, wyx’s ears are ripped and healed long ago, so it’s hard to tell they were ever damaged. wyx’s tail is relatively long for a kobold, but not too big, and adorned with a large golden ring just under their tunic.

Scrawled across the kobold’s body are faintly glowing red arcane runes. While they last a long time, wyx redraws them every day, ensuring they have enough power to function as a limiter that prevents them from being automatically drafted into The Skeleton War. Due to this high level of magic required to ward off the divine draft, wyx is typically only capable of up to 3rd or 4th level spells.

wyx’s favorite pastimes are:

  • Helping adventurers
  • Brewing potions
  • Committing crimes & tricks
  • Exploring abandoned ruins to search for treasure
  • Buying, selling, trading, and loaning magical items
  • Befriending & taking care of animals
  • Pacifism

In general, they have access to a ludicrous amount of gear in various bags and boxes of holding.

Chomps is often seen with their materialized phantasmal steed, Chomps the giant turtle, who is capable of moving very fast despite his size. The turtle is often seen carrying the kobold’s gear, but sometimes wyx stores the goods in their personal pocket dimension so Chomps can get a break.

Arcane Magic

  • Duration: varies
  • Limits: While wyx has a lot of arcane power, most of it is spent on casting a binding spell every day on their body, so most of wyx’s magic boils down to setting traps, illusions, summoning Chomps, accessing pocket dimensions, and creating invisible forces.

Arcane Runes of Binding
