DESCRIPTION

'Lumbo appears to be an stealthy, agile and light-haired elf. His manner is casual and somewhat glassy-eyed. He is known to self-medicate by smoking strange herbs in his ever-present pipe. His habitual haze is complemented by his extraordinary, often supernatural luck.

--CKW

DESIGN NOTES
His attributes mimic his state of mind. His clouded mind represented by his average INT and low WIS. I leaned into his fey nature as an elf by granting him those same spells he is resistant to, as his go-to spells at 1st level.
