This dude looks like he makes a living scavenging stuff and selling it. Maybe he has is really awkward in social situations due to a lack of it growing up?

Possible Familiars: [item=Battleram Skirmisher] [item=Iron Golem]
Personality: Zagreus is a distant dragon, holding the same emotionless expression through almost any situation. He can be quite intimidating, but is really calm and patient with others. Zagreus rarely talks, finding comfort in silence.
Job: He is a scavenger who sells useful scraps. When he comes across something that may have been lost, he strives to figure out who it belonged to and return it.
A ram can ram ramshackle armor with dire ramifications.

Iron Golem
Familiar
Ride the iron golem through a storm at midnight; metal!

Job: He is a scavenger who sells useful scraps. When he comes across something that may have been lost, he strives to figure out who it belonged to and return it.
Lore: We find the hidden. We find the fallen.
Zagreus fulfills the duty of a searcher. His purpose is to find the lost or missing- whether they be dragon or something else. This is not a glamourous job. It is hard; full of terrible hours, awful weather, and nasty characters. Sometimes he never completes his mission when there is nothing left to find.
Despite his burden Zagreus finds the joy in the little things. He has been all over Sornieth. Seen many beautiful things. Even met a few beautiful dragons. Yet he can't stop. He can't stay. There is always another call for help.

My first thought with Zagreus is a scavenger. Someone who mucks about old forgotten tombs, long since abandoned, carrying the massive shovel and weight on his back to help him dig and break down various doors, chests, or graves.
He doesn’t seem to have any qualms about disturbing the restless dead, as long as it’s properly abandoned and there’s the potential of treasure in it for him. That’s where he found his familiar, who he had to figure out how to repair himself, and why his room is jn such a state; everything’s so haphazardly strewn about there’s barely room enough to walk, let alone sleep. Garbage is mixed with priceless artifacts, and he keeps saying he’ll sort it but then gets distracted looking at a shiny thing, or running off on another treasure hunt.
(Essentially he’s a Skyrim protagonist, a strong grave-robber with a hoarding problem)
He would keep the following:
[item=Aged tome] he picks up every intact one he sees. They’re gonna be worth something to somebody, someday. If he can ever pick it up off the floor.
[item=clay fertility statue] a large number of these have wound up in worse condition on his floor than they ever were in the tomb
[item=Golden key] actually a skeleton key, and can get into practically any unenchanted lock. Turns out they were pretty common back in the day when enchantments were less common outside of Arcane territory, so now he has a whole giant keyring full of the things.
[item=ghastly houndskull] definitely cursed.

Like fine wine, tomes only get better with age. (Special thanks Jayfox.)

Clay Fertility Statue
Dragonmade
Statues like this are often given to matriarchs and mothers in hopes that their hatchlings develop strong and able. Many clans keep one in each of their nests for luck.
65
a large number of these have wound up in worse condition on his floor than they ever were in the tomb
Golden Key
Dragonmade
A golden key fills a wind-up pocketmouse with energy!
50

Ghastly Houndskull
Organics
Still capable of animation long after its host body has been destroyed, the best tactic for dispatching these airborne skulls is with a swift projectile.
47
definitely cursed.
Ooh okay this seems fun! It's been a while since I wrote some lore.
Zagreus strikes me as a necromancer on first glance. I feel like it'd be really fitting, especially considering how the character his name comes from was dismembered and reborn. He spends most of his time working in dark corners of sewers, which gives others the impression that he's intimidating and mysterious. He is extremely powerful, most likely having some of the strongest magic in the clan, however he's mostly awkward when it comes to interacting with others, all his words sounding slow and deliberate.

Contaminated Featherback Pelt
Organics
A pelt this far gone is best burned or buried far away from clan territory.
350
Cedar Logs
Organics
A resplendent cedar log, ready to be shaped.
25
Glowing Tail
Organics
Who needs a lava lamp when you have this squishy light source? Your lair will be the coolest. (Special thanks to BallpointTattoos.)
29
Acid Widow
Insect
Didn't think it was possible to make a spider even worse? Nature has been severely underestimated.
