Tinybones is a skeleton rogue from Urborg, Dominaria.[1]

Description

Tinybones is a tiny animated skeleton. He speaks in an unintelligible clattering language.[2] He can disassemble himself into bones, either to compact himself or hit people with his bones. He can fashion his finger into a makeshift key for picking locks.[3]

Tinybones doesn't enjoy stealing or hurting the people of Urborg.[4] Tinybones steals because he has a tiny family to feed, and they have a giant appetite.[1] He does, however, seem to enjoy being a nuisance to others.

History

As life isn't easy in Urborg, Tinybones banded together with other ghouls to form an ersatz family.[5][4] To support his family, Tinybones turned to a life of crime.

Thunder Junction

Around 4563 AR, word of Tinybones's exploits had reached Oko, and he sought the skeleton out and recruited him to take part in a heist on Maag Taranau, the legendary treasure vault at the center of Thunder Junction.[5][2] Tinybones traveled through an Omenpath to the plane and joined the crew. He assisted Oko in a raid on the headquarters of the Sterling Company to obtain one of the vault's keys, disguising himself by hiding inside a cardboard box. The plan succeeded in obtaining the key, but their cover was blown on their way out when the sight of Oko's son Kellan caused his illusion magic to fail. As the duo ran away, Tinybones lost his hat but recouped the loss by stealing a guard's pocket watch.

Later, when the gang was sneaking into Tarnation, Oko wore Tinybones, disguised as bone armor, as part of his plan to get captured on purpose.[6][7] When the Sterling Company caused a distraction, also planned by Oko, Tinybones undid his chains, and along with Oko made a break for Maag Taranau.

Tinybones helped navigate the maze of traps within the vault of Maag Taranau, and escaped after Akul assaulted them.[8] At the debrief for Oko's crew, Tinybones departed for further adventures with Rakdos, who had taken a liking to the mischievous skeleton throughout his tenure.
