Common Derro

Derro, Common
Derro, CE Small Humanoid
Level 3 (+2)
"I’m as fast as lightning moving uphill in the middle of winter, human! You should have never come up to the Everdeep! Yes, I meant down here of course! What?! You’re so scared you lost all sense of smell, too?!"
——Lacknokas, a Common Derro threatening a confused explorer
Like most Derro, the Commoner is utterly insane, afflicted with the curse of a hateful god for a crime long since forgotten. They wear black leathers, carry a shortsword, and wield a repeating crossbow loaded with poisonous bolts with great enthusiasm against their enemies, both the real and imagined ones. They are capable of strategy, but it takes all of their effort to repress their urges and paranoias long enough to achieve the desired result. Once this period of time is over, they usually backlash and unleash a tirade of ranting and raving of no particular direction or purpose. It is probably because of this insanity that even a common Derro is a proficient and dangerous combatant, as the constant threat of other Derro living so close by requires them to keep a vigilant eye against their own people, let alone encroaching threats.
