Lapilalo, Bane of Frogs

This story is about a halfling monk (he looked a lot like a lalafell from Final Fantasy XIV). Originally he was supposed to be a virtually useless adventurer as I had initially rolled his scores and took the first outcome possible no matter how bad they were, after all I was aiming to make a Krillin like character here. Unfortunately that campaign never took off so this incarnation never saw the light of day. Then adventure league 5e happened and I thought this would be a good time to revive this lalafell, erm, halfling monk with the worst stats in Str and Int.

Next was his background, I thought entertainer would be perfect as it provided additional levels of hilarity (to me). So Lapilalo now demands attention always be on him and will take reckless actions like kicking down doors, springing any trap he came upon to show off his excellent reflexes by dodging them, drop kicking enemies from thirty feet or higher, engaging enemies while shouting "Handsaw is ready!" (Totally stole that from Randy Savage but since Lapilalo is half the man Macho was, all pun intended, Bonesaw was to cool for the little guy hence Handsaw). I was going to multi-class with one of the spell caster selections so where ever he went he would have Dancing Lights but decided against it after some thought. I wanted him to stand out like Hercule but without the flashy "tricks."

During one of the final fights on the very first floor of an ancient Dragon Castle there was an evil tree than was controlling three humans and summoning monstrous evil branches it summoned a giant monster frog. While the others were dealing with humans, Lapilalo was dealing with the other enemies. Being the only combatant near the thing the frog whipped it's tongue swallowing the half sized adventurer in one go. Lapilalo, while in the frog, sat in deep thought (as well of other things) trying to think of a way out of this predicament. However thinking wasn't his strong point so the his conclusion was a rather simple solution... "I'll kick my way out of the frog!"

So, with disadvantage, he managed to perform a double Guile like flash kick from inside the beast so hard that he burst out with a loud pop. Naturally this stunned his fellow adventurers and he got the spotlight he craved for the time being. So if your party is ever going into a dungeon, raid, or expedition across an areas with frogs you may want this level three Halfling Monk who is known as Lapilalo, "Bane of Frogs."
