Description
Gizzard is an old, grumpy dragonborn — purposeless, by his own reckoning, and so he travels. Little else about his appearance or manner is recorded in the vault.
Ideals
Bonds
Flaws
No joy left in fooling around with women.
Personality Traits
Grumpy. Old. Purposeless.
Motivations
- Not documented — left as an expansion hook.
Backstory
Gizzard is haunted by past relationships, the details of which aren’t recorded anywhere in the vault. Whatever happened left him without purpose, and travel is what he’s done with that since.
Relationships
- Ambystoma — Fellow party member in the original Flesh to Dust party.
- Gwen — Fellow party member.
- Thrum Stoneheart — Fellow party member.
- Zander — Fellow party member (early sessions).
Notes
- This page is noticeably thinner than his fellow party members — the vault has very little dedicated material on Gizzard specifically, mostly stealth/perception rolls and stage directions from raw session notes rather than backstory or characterisation. Filled in only what’s actually attested rather than inventing motivations, ideals, or bonds.
- Played by Andrea. Joined the original “Flesh to Dust” party (Ambystoma, Gwen, Thrum Stoneheart, Zander, Gizzard) starting at the docks of Malachite, investigating the originium/oripathy crisis.
- Session 2: led the party correctly through a branching forest path outside Malachite (notable Survival/navigation moment) during the goblin camp investigation; was among those exposed to crystal dust at the goblin camp (everyone except Gwen).
- Session 3: helped recover Magallan and the crystal-laden wagon from the goblin camp. A session note at the Iris Tavern reads “Gizzard is not affiliated with the group” — unclear whether this reflects an in-fiction development, a player absence, or just a stray note. Flagging rather than resolving; worth checking your own memory or the full session log before publishing.
- Session 8: still with the party (alongside Ambystoma, Gwen, and Thrum) on a visit to Rhine Labs, where researcher Melusine expressed interest in studying dragonborn — likely relevant to Gizzard given his race, though the note doesn’t name him directly.
- No record found of Gizzard’s eventual fate, current location, faction allegiance, or role — left blank in the frontmatter rather than guessed.
