RP Hooks

Mirage Raceway: Anyone who hung around the raceway could know him.

Appearance

Slicket has red hair that he styles in a spiky mohawk. He keeps his facial hair styled into a pointy mustache and a hanging beard. He's a muscley little gnome, tough and strong and often getting into trouble.

Personality

Greasy ⬥ Clever ⬥ Enthusiastic ⬥ Bold

Slicket has a natural lowbrow, almost goblin-like manner, but underneath it is a keen mind and a softer heart than he'd ever admit. He's prone to leaping before he looks, and is easily carried away by enthusiasm. He usually prefers to act, rather than discuss or consider, and deal with the consequences as they come.

This character is available for romance.

+ Romancing Slicket

Slicket is primarily interested in gnomish or goblin women, and has a wide appreciation of all sorts of attractiveness within this niche. He would be exceptionally easy to romance casually, and not that much harder to romance seriously.

He is more likely to be attracted to people who are honest, enthusiastic, and unbothered by giving or receiving good-natured teasing. He is less likely to be attracted to people who are quiet, subtle, sensitive, or calculating. To be honest, though, there's not much personality-wise that would exclude him as a potential partner - he is not opposed to a moderate amount of conflict in his romantic relationships.

History

Slickets parents were oddities in Gnomeregan, in that they preferred to follow their tinkering obsessions in nomadic solitude. They left long before the fall, and little Slicket was born on the road. His parents eventually split up (concluding solitude is better than duotude), and they would usually trade off their son whenever they happened to meet up.

When Slicket reached his teenage years, he became enamored of rocket cars. He left on his own to join the gnomish team at the Mirage Raceway, and dedicated his efforts to rising to the top of the team there. This is where he spent the years of Vanilla Classic, the Burning Crusade, and the Wrath of the Lich King.

+ Cataclysm

The Cataclysm led to the flooding of the Mirage Raceway, which cost Slicket his rocket car as well as all his other belongings. He returned to Dun Morogh to help in the reclamation of a homeland he never knew, and from there he ended up joining Cobalt Company.

He led the team in Westfall that uncovered the rise of a new Defias Brotherhood, and who cleared out most of the leadership from the Deadmines. Now, he's dealing with goblin debtors, coming after him to pay for the last upgrade he made to his rocket car before the flood.

Relationships

Arric

Arric A dude with a cool wolf I worked with in Westfall. I think he thought Birdie was our team leader, but it's no big.

Birdie

Birdie A dude I worked with in Westfall. He cares a lot about people, and he's kind of private.

Lord Ference

Lord Ference Lieutenant in Cobalt, and the sort of dude you can rely on in a pinch.

Glyphe

Glyphe A cute mage engineer gal I worked with in Westfall. A good person to have on your side.

Kenelly

Kenelly A worgen gal I worked with in Westfall. Her wolf form is pretty cool, but she's not a wild wolf. She's a sensible sort.

Natlee

Natlee A cute priestess gal the S.A.F.E. people teamed me up with for cleaning up Gnomeregan. She used to be a con artist, but she's reformed and trustworthy now. I like working with her.

Ozmatoz

Ozmatoz A cute gnome gal I worked with briefly in Westfall. She's a good artist, but I hope she gets some better subjects than ogre butt.
