He grew up in the mountains outside Cormyr. He trained first, as a rogue, picking locks on doors to let in a raiding party, and then locking the same door after all inside were dead. Uthgart seemed to be a natural leader, his charisma, and inventive murders brought much admiration. The tribal leaders were not so pleased with this innovative young goblin, and when his sorcerous abilities began to manifest, he was banished. It wasn’t long before Uthgart took up with another tribe, this time as an apprentice to the tribal adept. Uthgart was not happy, and slew his master in a bid for power. Unfortunately Uthgart could not replace the adepts “healing” powers, and once again he was banished. The Goblin Wars with Cormyr were to be an education for young Uthgart. He was able to hook up with goblin, orc, and hobgoblin sorcerers. He learned a lot of magic, and advanced rapidly in power. Uthgart was not above traveling invisibly into human encampments to see the War Mages cast their famous spells. It was on one such occasion that the camp was over run by orcs, and Uthgart was able to loot a pair of magic rings…Abandoning the war, Uthgart traveled north to the Dalelands, and from there to the Silver Marches. The magic of Silverymoon lures him like a moth to the flame. To date, he has not yet had the courage to enter the city. But he has explored Sundabar, and Everlund in the guise of a gnome. He has worked with Orcs and hobgoblins on raids in the area, but always abandons the group if things look bad. In Uthgart’s mind, he has precious little magic. He covets any and all magic. He will gladly kill, and torture to get it. And he will think nothing of sacrificing others of his kind to obtain whatever he desires.Uthgart maintains secret cashes of treasure and magic in several areas of the marches. Each area is free of thieving goblins. They are not much, just potions of healing and some gold. But he has big plans for them.Currently, Uthgart is in Sundabar, trying to pass himself off as a gnomish wizard of low levels. He stole a spell book off a 4th level illusionist, and will appear to study it, as if memorizing spells. His goal is to infiltrate a party of adventurers, and kill them while they sleep. He takes the name of Myron “Tumbletoes” Flintlock. When it’s his turn on watch, he will summon a fiendish ape to distract the party, and hide, casting Snowball Swarms, Blindness, and more Summoned creatures. Only if things go bad, will he cast fireballs. He doesn’t want to loose even one paper scroll! His Polymorph Self spell can be cast 4 times a day. 3 times a day, he’ll cast it to maintain his disguise. The forth use is always saved for a quick getaway (generally as a raven or an owl). Uthgart has grown fond of humanoid luxuries. He LOVES elven wines. For the last two years, he has wintered in human cities. This has led to Uthgart’s master goal. He wants to rule a human city! To that end, he has made contact with a band of wandering Doppelgangers, and been in contact with human mercenaries. He is also casting about for a mage to cast Polymorph Other upon his person for a permanent disguise. But he is too paranoid to do so without a sure way of killing that mage afterwards.</blockquote>
