Backstory[]

Zorbu grew up in a small village on the slopes of the mountains south of Yartar. He lived a typical gnomish childhood: tinkering with mechanical toys, pulling pranks on unsuspecting neighbors, and exploring the woodlands covering the mountains in the company of a local dwarf ranger, Galor Rockshield.

A grizzled veteran of many battles, Galor was waging a secret battle against a clan of drow who were holed up in some deep caves near the village. He carefully struck from the shadows, attempting to drive them back into the Underdark. One night, after a particularly prolonged encounter, a drow scout followed Galor home, and on the night of the next new moon the drow and their minions descended upon the village in force. Galor saved Zorbu's life, but many others were killed, including Zorbu's parents. From that day forth, Zorbu trained under Galor as a ranger, vowing revenge upon the drow and any who claim allegiance to them.

Cunning and imaginative, Zorbu makes use of his tinkering skills to wield an impossibly large crossbow (named Thunderbolt, which is also Zorbu's nickname) and unleash clever mechanical traps against his foes.

Abilities[]

Massive Bolt – Base Attack

Zorbu fires a bolt from his massive crossbow at a random enemy, dealing damage to all.

Know Your Enemy – Level 10 Ability

Humanoids, Beasts, Undead and Aberrations are Zorbu's Favored Foes. He tracks the number of each type that he has killed and gains a 0.01% damage bonus against that type for each kill, stacking additively. If an enemy has multiple types, they count for each type and the damage bonuses stack muliplicatively. These bonuses persist through resets.

Focused Fury – Level 30 Ability

Zorbu's damage is increased by an amount equal to 10% of the sum of his base Know Your Enemy buffs.

Hunter's Pack – Level 50 Ability

Increases the damage of Champions adjacent to Zorbu with a DEX score of 15 or higher by 500%.

Specialization Choice – Level 60

Lead The Pack
Increases the effect of Hunter's Pack by the bonus provided by Focused Fury.
Hunting Partners
The Know Your Enemy counters additionaly increment once for each Champion in the formation affected by Hunter's Pack each time a valid enemy is killed.

Mechanical Squirrel – Level 80 Ultimate Attack

Zorbu winds up a small mechanical squirrel and sends it skittering towards a random enemy. When it reaches them, it detonates the hidden vial of Alchemist's fire inside, dealing damage to (and stunning) all nearby enemies.

Expert Hunter – Level 100 Ability

Zorbu's damage is increased by the bonus provided by Hunter's Pack.
