[QUOTE="maddmic, post: 2997091, member: 9989"] I'm fine with Herger's description. Just think, BIG viking type guy w/o armor (Hrothgar has yet to see anything oversized come his way. Not that I'm complaining. He's just a big target and I've been trying to be very careful with him in his delicate state. LOL) Also, if I'm not mistaken on the terminology, I would like his moustache to be more of a long fu-manchu style. Think the dorn in the book. The ends could be braided if he sees fit. If you guys have seen the 13th warrior, I envision his hair to be about as long as Buliwyf. (The 1st warrior. Here's a link to his pic on imdb: [url=http://www.imdb.com/gallery/ss/0120657/Ss/0120657/AU28_2_23.jpg?path=pgallery&path_key=Kulich,%20Vladimir)]Buliwyf[/url] ) Herger is 8'9" and 305#. He has an 18 strength which doesn't really (in my eye) fit his frame yet. He's still growing though and by level 5 he'll have a 20 Strength. (should we all live that long) Sometimes I think that the heroic path paints a pretty good mental image of the character, so I'll drop a bit in here. [b]Size Features:[/b] The giantblooded is a massive member of his own species, but his heritage does not unlock immediately. His body must be tempered and his blood tested before it begins to express the raw power within. At 1st level, the giantblooded is considered Large for the purpose of the size categories of the weapons he may use. However, this benefit comes with a trade-off; the gaintblooded's bulk makes it harder for him to go unnoticed and more expensive to remain protected; he suffers a -4 penalty to Hide checks and his armor and shields cost and weigh twice the normal amounts. When determining the giantblooded's height and weight, multiply his height and weight by 1.5 to determine final numbers. [b]Rock Throwing:[/b] Part of the giantblooded's heritage is his capability to become a living siege engine, throwing rocks that lesser men would be hard put to even lift. So long as the giantblooded has loose boulders, broken masonry, or even the bodies of his foes about him, he will never lack for ammunition. The giantblooded's thrown rocks have the listed range increment and damage. [/QUOTE]
