'''Skip''' is a child employed as dragon bait by a group of hunters.
'''Skip''' is the main character of the short writing exercise 'I hate Dragons' by Brandon Sanderson. He later extended it, revealing more information about Skip.
 
Skip lives on the[[Sixthface]] worldon knownthe as 'Sixthface'cube, where thepeople residentsare getborn with simple magic talents known as 'knacks'[[knack]]s.

As a result of his knack of hearing spelling and punctuation, he is very interested in words and a stickler for grammar and spelling. He would like to become a lexicographer and collect all the words and their spellings into a dictionary.
The group is later hired by a sorceress who takes them into deeper dragon infested land, despite the groups protests. This leads Skip to abandon the group, fearing being eaten by a dragon, but is cornered, alone, by a dragon on his way home. His fate is unknown.{{book ref|I Hate Dragons}}
 
Skip's ability to smell delicious to dragons got him run out of towns a number of times, before he joined up with Johnston's Spears, Dragon Hunters as dragon bait. The group was later hired by a sorceress from [[Dawnface]] who took them into the highlands, looking to hunt and kill a specific dragon. After failing to find the dragon she was looking for, she told the hunters that they would be venturing further into the mountains, where larger and more powerful dragons are common. This led Skip to abandon the group, as he feared finally being eaten by a dragon. However, after leaving the hunters, he was cornered, alone, by a dragon on his way home. His fate is unknown.{{book ref|I Hate Dragons}}
His other knacks include being able to hear spelling and punctuation marks. As such, he is constantly correcting other peoples words, and would like to create a dictionary.
