____ _MANKY __ ___
This sphinx of wonder certainly looks the part, though instead of the typical blue and purple hues associated with the species, his fur is a mixture of brilliant white, golds, and pinks.
CREATURE OF KINDNESS. Manky is a sphinx of wonder whose biggest priority in life is making friends. This sometimes gets in the way of his duties when working in the service of another creature, but as far as he’s concerned without friends you have nothing, so it's best to make as many as you can. This lackadaisical attitude once saw him expelled from the service of an androsphinx named Obex, however, he would go on to prove his worth in service to more open minded creatures.
HERO OF MAN. Through some inexplicable set of circumstances, Manky once found himself serving as a companion to a group of adventurers said to have been responsible for saving The Multiverse itself. He has very little recollection of what transpired, though he’s pretty sure mind flayers were involved. When asked about this grand tale he mostly remembers the inns they stopped at during their time abroad and the many roaring hearths he napped in proximity to while travelling with his friends. Despite this inability to recall details beyond belly rubs and warm fires, he is respected by other celestials and scholars that seem to be more aware of his role in these events than Manky himself.
VARIANT: MANKY AS A FAMILIAR Manky is a good boy who generally enjoys the company of other creatures, regardless of the danger level they may possess. As long as the creature shows no hostility towards Manky, he is likely to try and become friends with them. If the creature is outwardly friendly to Manky, he will often choose to follow them for a time. Manky may have the following trait. Familiar. Manky can choose to serve another creature as a familiar, forming a telepathic bond with his willing master. While the two are bonded, the master can sense what Manky senses as long as they are within 1 mile of each other. While Manky is within 10 feet of his master, the master shares Manky’s Magic Resistance trait. At any time and for any reason, Manky can end his service as a familiar, ending the telepathic bond. |
