Squintz
Squinzerephtoritzpik, aka Squints, is a simple small time scumbag informant who happens to be from a tribe of goblins with a unique body modification tradition...
Appearance
Pointy ears with floppy tips stick out from the sides of a bulbous head best described as onion shaped, the whole of which is covered in wrinkly, mottled forest green skin, sprinkled with warts. A big nose with an enlarged tip rests crookedly about wide, fat, cracked lips covering teeth haphazardly arranged in yellowed and blackening rows.
The most distinctive feature of this head set on top of spindly, swaggering goblin's body is his eyes. Large and close set, they are permanently fixed in a cross-eyed gaze, something his tribe has trained them for by wearing corrective headgear from infancy. Squints is massively cross-eyed, and bears himself like a the hot stud he thinks he is.
History/Background
Squints didn't have anything great or tragic make him into the man he is today, he's simply selfish, greedy and lazy, taking the quick cash over long term investments that require more work.
Need information about where someone is hiding or looking for the black market? Talk to Squints, and if it's not going to be hard work, or dangerous to him personally, he'll help you out, for a nominal fee...
Roleplaying Notes
Keep in mind his shallow, self serving attitude and arrogant self worth, but otherwise, he's about the same level a teenager who thinks he's important even when he's not.

Short but well done.
Heh. He's an okay guy, a most proper source of shady information. I bet it must be confusing to look into those eyes. :)
