Pustule
MinorThe air thickens with rot as she looms near, her bubbling cheek-sore weeping a vile trail that stains everything it touches. There's a greasy menace in her yellowed grin, like she's sizing you up for the butcher's block. You can't help but wonder what foul deals lurk behind that unicorn tee.
Pustule is a hobgoblin merchant who appears in the dungeon's underbelly as a fleeting but memorable vendor of explosives and detonators. Her single encounter in Book 2 underscores the grim commerce of the crawl, where even a rotting hobgoblin can turn suffering into profit. She embodies the dungeon's casual horrors—brief, repulsive, and gone before you can forget her stench.
Physical Description
Towering at six feet, this large muscular hobgoblin female has rough greenish-gray skin stretched over a powerful frame, her face a goblinish nightmare dominated by a wide flat nose, small beady yellow eyes, and jagged yellowed teeth. An open sore on her cheek constantly bubbles with black and green ooze, trickling down her face, over her shoulder, and staining her threadbare pink graphic t-shirt emblazoned with a unicorn wearing sunglasses. She smells overwhelmingly of rot and sickness, her scraggly black hair tied back in a messy knot, clad in ragged pants and battered boots, moving with a hunched, predatory swagger.
