Background
"Hullo, my name's Digsby, short for Digsbert. Me mates call me Digs." ~ Digsby (repeatedly)
Digsby is a paladin of Hoketh who has been sent by Lady Aila to aid in recovering an artifact needed to establish a teleportation link between Alivast and Tristella Court. He is currently working with The Unexpectables to accomplish this goal.
Digsby is soft spoken, and appears a bit slow. He enjoys digging holes practically to the point of obsession.
Digsby has had two encounters with the Harvest Man, a celestial of Hoketh. The first was in the incident where he lost/gained Armsby, and the second was when he nearly died while fighting alongside The Unexpectables.
Digsby was living peacefully as the son of a grave-digging Hoketh cleric when an unknown force of "bandits" attacked and he suffered a massive injury that, in his own words, cut him in half and severed Armsby. He encountered the Harvest Man and awoke to find his entire family and village risen as undead. Digsby had to destroy the animated corpses of his friends and family and lay them to rest with proper burrials.
After this incident, Digsby was given the epithet "Rotshell" by other villagers who believed him to be cursed.
Relationships
Armsby
Armsby is quite literally Digsby's left arm, but it is not permanently attached to his body and seems to exhibit a mind of its own, often behaving in a manner similar to a friendly pet. Digsby tries to keep his limb strapped on tight, but it often wanders away and gets into mischief.
Digsby says that Armsby contains part of his soul. Aila knows of this connection so the Hoketh clergy do not consider his arm to be undead offensive to Hoketh.
Batsby
While exploring Hellmouth's Grave, Digsby was assailed by a swarm of bats, one of whom nestled into a gap in his shell. The two began to bond, and Digsby gave him the name Batsby, which is short for Batsbert. Digsby cares very much for Batsby's well-being and Batsby has grown to trust Digsby. However, Digsby decided that Batsby would travel back to Alivast with Log, both for his own safety and to carry a message to Doros.
Borky
Borky and Digsby get along amazingly well. When he first met Digsby, Borky was hesitant to let him join their expedition, but when Digsby shared some cheese with him, the orc fully backed his inclusion. Borky goes on to show a great deal of concern for Digsby when he is experiencing emotional trauma, and in response to the orc's actions the mask of Lys reacts strongly and is partially repaired.
The Harvest Man
The Harvest Man has come to Digsby within visions twice in his life, once in the incident that created Armsby, and a second during a near-death experience while combating Bugbears in the western frontiers. Digsby was neither happy nor unhappy to have these visions, describing the experience as "necessary."
