My current DND character Rhogar, the Cavalier.
A kobold adopted by a noble dragonborn family, Rhogar has had to compete with his younger siblings being the runt of the litter he's trained himself in martial combat, he earned his trusted Tibetan Mastiff whom he named Kars after a legendary beast of steel that was used to defeat Tiamat during one of the great wars between Bahamut and Tiamat.
He now resides in Waterdeep trying to make a name for himself, seeking glory and fame despite as of now being targeted by Xanathar
