Bubbles
A one-armed goblin who threw himself on the party’s mercy in the cliff cave above Weber-Hollows in session 2026-05-01. Adopted by Tharion as a follower of Elythrael and given the name Bubbles.
Background
- Was part of a goblin stronghold the party had encountered “not a day back.”
- His boss (unnamed) had stolen a magical ring from the Barrows-Family-Crypt — specifically, the ring missing from Aradorn the Unifier’s rotted hand.
- The boss attempted to take refuge near the local owl bear’s lair and was promptly killed and dismembered. His arm with the ring still attached was lying in the owl bear’s nest when the party arrived.
- Bubbles was the only survivor of his clan to make it out of the cave area.
Personality and Status
- Speaks broken Common.
- Lost his arm somewhere in the chaos — not Tharion’s doing.
- Failed his Wisdom save when Lilith offered her hand, fled in fear from her. Stays close to Tharion.
- Pledges service to Elythrael in exchange for protection. Tharion takes the pledge at face value; the rest of the party is more skeptical.
- Currently traveling with Lilith and Tharion as they tail the owl bear.
Open Threads
- Is Bubbles a real convert or a tactical liar?
- What does he know about the goblin stronghold’s broader operation?
- Will the party let him into Weber Hollows? Aldrich and Flinter are both unlikely to take well to a goblin guest.
- Can he be trusted with the Speak-with-Dead ring or other magical items?
