I guess I'll jot down what I have in mind for the crew around here:

-Scri'erk: A giant arachnid, deadly predators who live solitary lives. My plan is they came here from a connecting cave and hunkered down in the Everdark. She'd be a big, scary monster who keeps adventurers out but also eats people from time to time. Not nice, but smart enough to be reasoned with. I'd say she's nothing compared to what used to live here so she's filling a niche right now.

-Snick: A kobold who got left behind when the tribe ran away. Snick grew up sneaking around and scrounging for food. A pretty quiet and stoic person but chaotic as all kobolds tend to be. Mostly just interested in shiny things and staying alive, but is a bit of a snoop.
