Appearance
Franky stands tall and stout, with pale grey skin, pointed ears, and little hair. He's got a wide assortment of scars befitting a warrior of his age. He dresses simply and plainly, and can often be seen wearing a toothy smile.
Personality
Franky is a friendly, sociable Hobgoblin. In addition to being a typical warrior in his tribe back home, he often sat around the campfires, cooking and listening to the stories of others. He's slow to anger, and shrewd with his coin, and isn't above shady business practices. But ultimately, he just wants people to sit around the fire, telling stories, drinking and eating, and giving money away to him and those who serve them.
History
Franky grew up the only child from a lineage of female warriors and male cooks in his tribe within the Imperium. He had a happy, loving, hobgoblin childhood, and when he came of age, he followed in both of his parents' footsteps, a warrior chef. He traveled the Imperium lands, refining his craft, earning his coin, and strengthening his body. Once he felt he'd seen enough of the Imperium, he left and made his way to Zaichaer, purchasing a tavern there.

He can usually be found cooking or eating something at most times, and if not, then drinking and socializing within his wide social circle. He retired from the Imperial Army after his mandatory time was finished, and opened a small food stall. He spends much of his days there, drinking, cooking, and socializing with the many patrons who show up. He certainly could upgrade to a restaurant, but he has a particular love for the small, open air stall.
