Message: <blockquote data-quote="pallandrome" data-source="post: 3191944" data-attributes="member: 46930">Stish StonetoesGnome RogueStish was born and raised in the small metropolis of Hill's Edge. His father was one of the more successful mayors the town ever saw, winning the election two years running. He grew up a city boy, well educated, wealthy family, happy home, the works. Young Stish decided early that there was no life like city life, but even cities have their dangers.Stish had become good friends with one of the house servants, a halfling by the name of Timmers. Timmers and Stish spent many a summer day exploring the streets and alleyways of Hill's Edge. They would spy on the criminals and thieves and hoodlums of the town and treat it like a game. Stish would always push things farther than Timmers, always trying to beard the tiger in it's den. Timmers would pay the price for this one night. The two were caught, but Stish managed to escape.Timmers was never seen again. At Stish's behest, his father launched an investigation to try to find his houseboy, and his son's friend, but it did no good. The boy was gone. Stish took the loss hard. As soon as he was old enough, Stish joined the city guard. His father was displeased, but he understood. He did, however, give his son a little leg up with his political backing. Mr. Stonetoes knew his son well enough to know that Stish wouldn't be happy working a desk job, and he wouldn't advance enough to affect the changes he wanted as a beat cop. So it was that Stish became a wandering guard, travelling the Western Heartland, looking to become the Gnome that could make up for what he had already caused to be lost.Description: Stish Stonetoes is, if you'll forgive the terminology, a rougish fellow, dispite his station. He flirts with the women, jokes with the men, and has an innate ability to become the life of any party he's a part of. He has a love of food and clothing, and particularly of the technological devices his race is famous for. He has started wandering the land in hopes of finding himself, and becoming a person he can be proud of, a person who can keep his hometown safe, in ways that his father was unable.</blockquote>
