Kasim’s traditional Goblin upbringing instilled two primary convictions in life: of the incomparable value of treasure over everything else and the utmost importance of ceaselessly acquiring it. Kasim hence taught himself in the arts of grave robbing and theft from a young age, and always kept his ear pressed close to the ground – wherever rumors of treasure spread, there Kasim would try his luck.

For all of Kasim’s innumerable enemies throughout Aurelica, it must have the merchant convoys around the Crisas Desert that despite him most as his burgeoning group of goblin thieves have plundered the routes to their heart’s content with magical sleights of hand as to frustrate the most determined guards. Moreover, Kasim is only the most talented of this group of talented thieves covering such specialties as underground tunnel digging and explosive manufacture. Thus, Kasim and his merry band soon accumulated a surprisingly large fortune in just a few years.

Kasim’s band soon graduated to the richest isolated organization within goblin territory, rich enough to force even their supposed leader, Gubeg, to extend the hand of cooperation. Yet Kasim is no fool, and quickly realized Gubeg’s natural cowardice and over-reliance on the beast Horace makes him vulnerable to a change of government. Kazim has hence begun to plot alongside many of the other factions of Crisas for a way to assert himself as the goblin’s rightful leader.
