BIOGRAPHY

Denroibo was born to a duo of gnomish submariners shortly before the Second War. During one of the naval battles of the war, the vessel his parents piloted was destroyed, and he was left an orphan. He has no memories of his parents.

Raised as a ward of Gnomeregan, Denroibo grew up as something of an outcast. With little interest in either technology or magic, he found little common ground with his fellow gnomes. He instead filled his days by concocting wild stories of high adventure and intrigue to entertain his companions. When he was a teenager, he whittled a makeshift piccolo and garnered a reputation for brightening dwarven taverns with his song, music, and dance.

Though this made him well-liked by his neighbours, Denroibo still felt like he wasn't truly a part of them. He earned his way doing odd jobs, mostly sending packages and messages throughout Dun Morogh.

When the trogg invasion of Gnomeregan began, Denroibo took up whatever was at hand and joined the cause. He was given a crash-course in roguery and let loose upon the troggs. Denroibo would win no dueling contests, but he held his own, to be sure.

When the gnomes were forced to flee their city, Denroibo traveled about Dun Morogh briefly, but realized that he had nothing truly keeping him there. He packed up his things, took to the road, and never looked back.

At first Denroibo remained in Khaz Modan, fighting the troggs abroad, but he found he had developed something of a wanderlust, and that as sad as he was for losing Gnomeregan, he felt no thirst for vengeance or vendetta against the troggs. He expanded his journeys, and found a world full of marvels awaiting him. Having only rarely and briefly ever leaving Dun Morogh in his lifetime, he was intrigued by not only the strange and wonderful new creatures and cultures waiting for him, but he found himself enraptured by the stories told by adventurers abroad. He stayed in Booty Bay for nearly half a year, doing nothing but listening to tavern patrons trade tales.

Denroibo soon fell back into his old habits. Using his newfound combat skills, he was able to earn a much better and much more interesting living, but his true passion was for spinning tales and hearing them. And, of course, he was never averse to whipping out his piccolo and dancing on a tabletop should the need ever arise.

 

 

FRIENDS AND FOES

GIZ (MX-450)

Mechanostrider

During the war in Gnomeregan, Denroibo and the tinker Milli Featherwhistle were part of a small group of defenders who fortified a building in the city and managed to keep it for two months. When they ran out of supplies, they were forced to part ways, and Milli promised all of them a discount on her mechanostriders should they survive. A year later, the only other survivor, Denroibo, dropped in on her and reminded her of her promise. Having forgotten about it, and now regretful of making it, Milli sold him the MX-450, a terribly old model of mechanostrider which she hadn't built for years. Only one remained that would run at all. She sold the last MX-450 to Denroibo and he named him Giz and painted him red. Giz and Denroibo have had a tumultuous relationship with each other since; Giz constantly doesn't work, and Denroibo constantly kicks Giz and tells him he's not working.
