Gossimer

Gossimer, better known as Goz, is a character in Year 1 created by SomeMangos. He is a gnome fighter wearing chain mail.

Personality
Goz is very social. He even introduces himself to those he doesn't immediately classify as foes. He's no stranger to magic he's actually more comfortable around magic users as they remind him of home (and he hope their magic skills may rub off on him). He dislikes dishonesty and often tries to ensure those around him don't partake in it. Goz is absurdly loyal to whom ever he admires. He loves messing with people, telling jokes, puns, all things fun.

Despite being such a friendly guy, Goz is kind of petty. He goes for the 'eye for an eye' approach and aims for weak points such as wounds or joints (watch your knees).

History
Goz lived in a rather large village. His elder siblings were very skilled, successful, and even famous and his parents expected the same of him. He tried being an apprentice under a weapon smith, found he liked using them more than making them. After some time he decided hunt after hours too. One night he encountered an injured kenku named Penny. Goz decided to let her take refuge in his home and even befriended her. Much later it was discovered that Penny was a wanted criminal. She and Goz attempted escape the village together to avoid arrest.

Sadly, they where captured. Penny was killed, and Goz was exiled for aiding a criminal. From there, He traveled around, took up small jobs, and went on adventures.
