[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 2359916, member: 2209"] Race/Class/Appearance/Persona, that kind of thing Gregor Hanville Race, a man cursed with gigantism, he is actually subtype giant and race giant Class giant racial level Gregor is a large man standing well over seven feet tall. He has long brown shaggy hair and a thick beard. A mountain of a young man, his great physique has seen hard use in the mines and he would like to see a new life. Rumors say that when Gregor's mother was pregnant with him she was cursed by a powerful Hexblade and she died in a difficult delivery giving birth to the large child. His father took him to Diamond Lake where they eked out a hard scrabble living though contantly beset by misfortune. The rumors say that he was born knowing the tongue of ogres and trolls though he learned common like other children did. He spent a miserable youth trying to make friends but also learning to be suspicious of the other children who would taunt him for being young and immature for his size and he soon learned to get into fights when he was challenged and his size was an advantage. Despite the miseries of his life he swore an oath on his mother's grave to stand up to evil like that of the hexblades and managed to keep his spirit open for genuine goodness. For those few who became his friends he is a jovial and steadfast companion, willing to help and protect them in the rough community of Diamond Lake. True to his vow, when Gregor saw a bunch of thugs accosting a young woman and dragging her into an alley beside a gambling den he could not ignore it.
