[Description] Excuse me if I don't shake hands. You might need a cleric after.
Hitter’s given name is only given to those he trusts, but those who underestimate him for his lack of weaponry make a grave error. He is a tall, burly, yet still light on his feet. He wears a masked helm with short blunt horns into battle; always worn is a suit of breastplate armor made of shining silvery mithral [It bears the signs of dwarven craft rather than elven to the keen observer]. His brown hair and beard are showing the first signs of graying, but his strength and vigor are not in question. His hands, as his nickname implies, are green. Not merely painted, they are composed of a rare green metal: starmetal. His forearms are fitted with what appears to be leather-lined bisected steel bracers.

[Abilities]
His fighting abilities are his abilities. His green hands make him a force to be reckoned with. He possesses several other magical items, acquired either from his adventuring career or from Lord Nobil, his current sponsor. Hitter has learned how to be gentle with his metal hands, but sometimes, in moments of high emotion he lets it slip. His tactile senses are deadened. He can sense when his hands are in contact with something, but no temperature or pain can be felt through his hands alone. He has learned the art of drinking from some dwarf friends, and can hold his own. He knows some drinking games, and can tell a tall tale or two.

[Equipment]
Hitter’s green hands (+3 enchanted starmetal hands, capable of enlarging, growing spikes or blades out of the knuckles, able to emit one of four different energy types at a time, can hit incorporeal creatures and crit undead, the starmetal itself does greater harm to extraplanar and undead creatures, normally his hands will cause unconsciousness rather than death, but they are fully capable of being lethal if he chooses.);

Mithral breastplate (heavy protection to his vitals; resistant to acid cold electric & fire energy, always shiny and immune to rust and acid itself);

“Bracers” are permanently connected and allow his hands to fly out and attack from up to 30’ away, he can also use them to reach high places, like magic grappling hooks, shoot them out, grab a high wall or something up to 30’ and pull himself up;

Greater belt of giant strength (bestows a strength bonus, and allows him to enlarge to Large size, stacks with his enlarged hands for greater damage and rock throwing/catching ability);

Ring of spell storing major (10 spell levels replenished by wizard and cleric friends);

Ring of X-ray vision (he may be looking at you and chuckling for some reason…as if he could see through what you’re wearing. PM if you wish to describe any normally unseen details, I will be vague and non-descriptive about it otherwise, it's meant to be a funny gag mostly).

[Backstory]
As a youth he was strong, and encouraged to train in the hope of becoming a famous warrior. His trainer, Master Myk Tisun, believed that using weapons was a weakness, because they could be taken away, and then the warrior who depended upon them was in trouble. Training the hands and body to be weapons was difficult, but more reliable, similar to and yet different from monk training; another weapon could always be picked up if needed. Hitter excelled and before long was out on his own adventuring career. He once knocked out a charging minotaur with one blow.
He lost his hands, his treasured and lethal weapons, in the line of duty to protect his lord from the threat of an assassin’s guild. As a reward for his valor, new hands were crafted for him personally. Hitter’s flesh hands were lethal, his metal hands are completely devastating. He met Kethoth and became adventuring companions. They are not adventuring non-stop like they used to, choosing to enjoy semi-retirement.

[Personality]
Helps people if he’s in the right place, and something big is going down, but usually lets people fight their own battles. He enjoys looking at people, sometimes longer than most, and often with a small grin, and always at females for some strange reason. Calls people out for staring at his hands, but honestly doesn’t mind being asked about them.

[Description] Hi guys!
This gnome has blonde hair with sideburns and goatee, blue eyes, is of average gnome height somewhere between three and four feet. He is dressed in colorful pantaloons blue and green with red trim, calf length dark red suede boots, wears a white shirt with a vest made of blue dragon hatchling hide. He wears a white cape with black satin underlining. He carries a small pick on his belt for self defense, but is more commonly seen plucking at his mandolin or piping on his flute. (*PM if using truesight spell or ability)

[Abilities]
Claims to be a renowned bard, but nobody’s heard of him. He appears charming, and his musical ability is passable, but hardly wonderful. His spell reportoire is more noteworthy, always ready to heal wounds, or charm a fair maiden of any size. (*PM if using truesight spell or ability)

[Equipment]
Bag of holding, portable hole *never mix them!*; Masterwork mandolin, masterwork flute; Cloak of charisma; Ring of mind shielding; Ring freedom of movement; (*PM if using truesight spell or ability)

[Backstory]
A traveling bard, fairly simple. He was raised by a community of elves and half-elves as an orphan, never knowing his real parents. He is always eager to learn of gnomish communities, hoping to one day be reunited with his real family.

[Personality]
He is very observant and eager to lend a helping hand. Seemingly insatiable curiosity, perhaps coming across as nosy sometimes. Due to his history, he becomes excited to meet other gnomes, and is always searching for clues to gnome communities.
