Description

Thaladred, The Mountain That Walks, is a 7'9", 400 lb Goliath. He looks like any other Goliath that one would imagine. However, he has multiple vertical rows of lithoderms on the right side of his face. These lithoderms are unique in that they range in color from green, grey, and white. 

Thaladred wears metal armor in key locations to protect himself from attacks from creatures of smaller stature. He also wears a large round metal helmet with a wide flat brim. Covering his armor is a large black trench coat with a massive purple stripe along the left side of his body. He wields two items: a flail with an extended chain and a massive tower shield with a giant's skull embedded on the front. 

History

Thaladred is a stoic and quiet defender of the town in which he resides. No one knows where he came from and all are afraid to ask him for more information. When he arrived in town, he established himself as the town's protector and no one argued with him. Since then he has single-handedly defended the town against roving bandits and other undesirable threats. He even led the town in a battle against an invading giant's warband. Townsfolk feel very fortunate to have him around, but still wonder why he is here defending the town as he does. 

Personality

Ideal. The strength of one's arm and the focus of one's will is all that matters.

Bond. I will remain in exile and protect those that I deem need protecting.

Flaw. When focused on a target or task, I become single-minded until the objective is completed.
