Name: Midge Coppersnap
Race: Halfling (Lightfoot)
Class/Role: Level 7 Rogue (Thief)
Appearance: Midge is a small, with a wiry frame and freckled face perpetually smudged with soot or flour dust. Her curly copper hair is cropped short and chaotic, often half-tied with twine or bent nails. She wears layered hand-me-downs, all with hidden pockets and subtle reinforcements — old armor scraps sewn into a scarf, a belt buckle that’s actually a keyring. Her bright hazel eyes are constantly darting, her grin crooked and knowing.
Backstory
Born in the alleyways and washbasins of Broadshire, Midge grew up on rooftops, in chimney stacks, and beneath bread carts. Her parents vanished before she could speak, and she was raised by a loose network of orphans, pickpockets, and exiles known as The Grumblegut Guild — a semi-benevolent street gang focused on survival over spite.
Midge became the go-to runner, lockpick, and rumor-gatherer, eventually serving as the Guild’s youngest ever “pathfinder” — a position of respect among the dispossessed. Though Broadshire’s guards see her as a pest, shopkeepers know her by name… and trust her to deal with problems quietly when the law can’t. Now in her late teens, Midge has turned her attention toward protecting other kids in the streets — especially from the darker things crawling into Broadshire from below.
