Bakk was the 15th child born into a littler of 17 kobold children. Being a collectivist society, the kobold warren quickly gave him the of hunter-gatherer once he reached maturity, hunting wild game for his people. Until one day, when a band of adventurers came knocking.

Alison saw potential in Bakk, and the two became fast friends. Bakk also learned much from her as well, furthering his marksmanship abilities, as well as theatricality, deception, and even a bit of magic.
