Skarn

A level-3 changeling juvenile in Hump Town whose village the gnomes bombed and whom a camel named Flint raises to charge a gold coin for anything: the salvaged FarSeerer on his roof, a look at the castle, the gold coin Carl promised every child who went to the shelter. He takes your own shape when you knock. By the end he is flying the Twister and charging the other children for rides.
