It had been hot that day in the slave pens outside the gladiator ring and he had been glad to get his hammer and get into the arena.  Standing on the baking sand hadn't been much of an improvement but it was more or less clean and open compared to inside the pens.  As he heard the crowd begin to howl for the fight to start he mentally began to prepare.  He took control of his metabolism to slow blood loss from wounds, the air around him warped to protect him from blows and his mouth stretched out for it's new razor sharp fangs.  The door dropped open and he strode into the ring.He had known he was a dead man as soon as he entered the arena and saw the dozen men inside.  Had known it ever since he had won a wrestling match his master had wanted him to throw and cost his patron a great deal of money.  As a slave he had had nothing but his record of perfect fights and not even the threat of death would take that from him.Mama Grater, the succubus in charge of the slaves, had always been fond of Big.  Had in fact given him his name when he had first gotten to the slave pens and impressed her with his size.  After the thrown fight she was the one who had whispered to him, "Trust the tiger's bite." Then he had entered the arena and seen the men inside waiting for him.  One of the men he noticed was wearing a tiger mask.  During that long painful fight as Big crushed and ripped his foes he kept one eye on that man.  He never really participated in the fight and the few blows he did make were all easily blocked and soon he was the last one standing.  Badly wounded Big had staggered over to the man in the tiger's mask and tackled him to the ground.  While they were wrestling he had felt a slash under his ribs and a soothing blackness had fallen over everything.  He had awoken several hours later half buried in rotten corpses in the Meat Pit, where the bodies of the dead are left till they can be re-animated for labor or to give the ghouls and cannibal human tribes something to eat so they don't venture into the slums.  Thus started Big's life of freedom.Big had left town after that and moved far from his roots to avoid bumping into any unfriendly familiar faces.  He'd taken several jobs as guard, assassin, bodyguard anything really but had finally ended up in this dump tavern looking for something new.  And this pathetic brew certainly wasn't it he mused with a frown at his beer.  Slowly standing to his full height of nearly eight feet he grabbed his gear and turned to go.  A bleary eyed drunk on a nearby stool stared up at him and whistled, "Damn you sure are BIG ain't ya boy?"As Big left the tavern he paused at the door to say over one shoulder, "That's what Mama used to say."---Here are stats/treasure/skills all that jazz.   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> [sblock]Big IronmaulHalf Giant Psychic Warrior 12Alignment:  NeutralStr:  24  (+7)  Dex:  16  (+3) Con:  16  (+3) Int:  10  (+/-0)Wis:  16  (+3) Cha:  8  (-1)HP:  68 <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1215380" target="_blank">rolls</a> + 36 (con) = 104 / 104AC:  22 = 10 + 9 (armor) + 3 (dex) Touch:  13Flatfooted:  19 Init:  +7Fort: 16 (18 w/fire)  = 8 + 5 + 3   Reflex: 12 (14 w/fire) = 4 + 5 + 3   Will:  12 (14 w/fire) = 4 + 5 + 3Base Atk:  +9 / +4Grapple: +24 = 9 + 7 (str) + 4 (size) + 4 (imp. grapple)G.
