Name: Ladd
Age: Unknown,exactly..surmised around 500yrs {Human equivalent: mid-30s}
Sex: Male
Race: Troll, Fae-Blood
Personality: Kind-Hearted. Quick to anger,though equally quick to laugh and to forgive. Patient,sage,and with a sense of levity and pity to those who were weaker than himself,especially if they are "of the Earth" as he is.
Life in the Past/History: Ladd was born *somewhere* in the Southern Appalachian Mountains around the year 1500. Despite his Troll heritage,he was not keen on tricking or attacking humanity,a trait that eventually got him attacked and exiled from his tribe sometime around 1650. Lost and alone,with not even a name,who would have thought his salvation,and the turning-point of his life would come from a young,Scottish wolf who befriended and mentored the Troll,teaching him how to read and write,as well as speak in a number of "human" tongues {Latin,Gaelic,English,Spanish and French..though Ladd later learned Cherokee,German and Arabic}.
As such,Ladd {as he came to be called} made a Life-Oath to said wolf..promising to aid the wolves if he could,so long as said help would not interfere with the wild and wondrous places of the world,Ladd's home.
Time passes,and Ladd grew tired,however,of the changes in the world..Humanity no longer cared for the wild places,and the wolves numbers dwindled..Ladd,overcome with terrible sadness at the events of the world,encased himself in stone to "sleep" until he believed things may grow better.
The year was 1949.
Fast forward to present day..Ladd awakens,and much has changed,though only time will tell if such change will be for the better..
Integration: Allied with the Wolves,Protector of the Forests
Any Special Notes or Abilities:
**Skin of Stone~Exactly as it sounds,Ladd's skin provides some armor to him,as it literally is as hard as stone.
**Regeneration/Natural Healing~The stories are true. Trolls can regenerate at an alarming rate,depending on the size of the injury. Minor cuts and bruises heal in mere seconds,though major injury {fatal stabs,amputation,etc} can take up to a week or so to fully regrow.
**Protector of Wild Places~As such title,Ladd has the following abilities: Speak to Animals,Speak to Plants,and Leave no Prints {can walk/run without being tracked}
**Tremor/Earthquake~Via his warhammer,can endue such with energy,striking the earth with such force it causes a tremor {the weakest level,Magnitude 4} to knock enemies off balance to a localized earthquake {at strongest,Magnitude 8} which can open up the earth to swallow enemies whole,though such power effectively levels {1d6} miles,with himself being the epicentre.
