Squelch is an Izzet goblin wizard on the plane of Ravnica. His inventiveness served him well, and after a test flight on a metal plate, he teamed up with Ruric Thar during the running of the Implicit Maze.

History

During the running of the Implicit Maze, Ruric Thar was approached by a lone, disheveled goblin, looking to team up. This was Squelch, and he had big ideas on how to beat his enemies. He had just finished a test flight on a metal plate, and had some issues with the landing, which is why he spat blood. The deal was, the goblin would help the ogre out, and the ogre would pay him in chickens.

Squelch dashed under the shields of the battalion of Boros soldiers facing them. Squelch hurled himself onto the back of an armored war beast, then pulled a metal spike from an unseen pocket and jammed it into the top of the creature's head before jumping away.

Sparks flew. The war beast staggered and turned on its yokemate. Human soldiers scattered as the crazed behemoths broke free of their traces, stamped past, and disappeared down the alleys. The massive engine of war began to topple with a strange grace, slowly falling onto its side. Then the entire contraption exploded in a whoosh of flame.

Now clear to proceed, Ruric Thar lumbered forward, and Squelch climbed onto their back. He fashioned a basket, and mounted it to their body as they continued through the maze.
