He/Him

Felpip was a private investigator for most   of his life. It was a difficult job that has made him cynical and exhausted   with the simple patterns of crime. He has only one true desire, to bring the   guilty to their knees so he may look them in the eye and condemn them. It’s a   game really, the world is the board and he sees and predicts the moves of his   enemies, hoping someone would be good enough to impress him.

Felpip is a classic investigator trope character, which is good because the better he is with insight, perception, and investigation the more often he can get his sneak attack off. He’s not meant to be on the front line, but he knows how to get everyone there. Get your insightful Fighting skill off and start firing from range to do stupid amount of damage with bows, cross bows, or darts. Take advantage of your minor illusion cantrip to distract enemies while you get your set up.
