One character in my current game, for example, ended up through said rolls as a bizarre cross between a Hobbit and an Ent (or just a Hobbit that really went nuts on the Entdraught!); nearly 7' tall, built roughly like Shaq, with always-on barkskin and real problems fitting in to any society.  And, being part-Hobbit, of course it's also an always-on eating machine.</blockquote>
