Appearance:

A tall, well-built muscular man, this goliath towers over most that stand before him, or at least he used to. He always carries a huge shield on his back and two battleaxes strapped to each of his sides. His eyes always scan his surroundings, scrutinizing everything and everyone, grasping all that he can from merely watching. He is however sometimes seen with a smile on his face, noticeably when he is talking to friends. Tattoos run fron the top of his head to his tippy toes, the most remarkable parts being those of two dragons on his chest and back.

Personality:

He is unlike many would imagine a barbarian from Uthgardt. He is relatively well-spoken, amicable and most of the times reasonable, which might be surprising to some. He enjoys talks, but not nearly as much as he enjoys fighting and discovering new places or people. And so, he spends most of his time venturing outside of Sigil and bashing whatever tries to come at his throat with a smile on his face... When it proves to be a challenge. "To each their own, as long as they don't get in my way" seems to be his defining philosophy.

Relationships:

He seems to be at good odds with most of the factions, enjoying his time with many people. He has been, however, heard to complain about the Xaositects and he keeps teasing a berk that goes by "Vallin". Recently there's been chant that he joined a group called the "Juggernauts", one that Glaucon Spinel is part of. There are more than a couple he would call friends, ranging from the Sensate chit in green to the bleaker tiefer with green wings. His main interest lies with the Signers, however, as he is undergoing his trial to join them after having a pleasant chat with one of their factotums. All around, he is amicable to those that are amicable to him, and always looking to make new friends.

Accomplishments:

While he hasn't been in Sigil for too many cycles, he is already making a name for himself throughout various ventures. In one, he helped slay a minor Demon Queen, of which he is particularly proud of. In others, he joined some canny bashers to slay the black, white and green dragons.. Some chant says he even landed the killing blow on the green one. Some other minor achievements include slaying a Dread Seagull that was plaguing the Outlands around Hillard's Bay together with other bashers and a recent one being surviving an alcoholic drink made for the consumption of giants, from the fires of Ysgard.

Goals:

Coming from the tribe with a clear purpose, Eglath wants to get stronger. He needs to prove himself and stand tall so that one day he can return to his tribe as 'Protector', a title that he often speaks about but never explains what it really entails. And so, this 'walker jumps at every opportunity at increasing his skills or learning new things that might help him in his journey.

Plot Hooks:

Anything that involves training his abilities or combat seems to interest Eglath. However, the most important one is tracing the footsteps of the Thuliaga that came to Sigil before him. One he knew went by "Dawnbringer". He has recently, with the help of the Fated factotum Rosaline, found out that he used to own property in the Lower Ward, which he investigated and found out that Dawnbringer was probably a doomguard or Athar. He is looking forward to find out more.

History:

Eglath comes from a tribe in Uthgardt, one that he never named. In that particular tribe, he was born and raised in the Thuliaga clan, a clan whose responsibility was to be keepers of knowledge. To learn of the outside world and improve the tribe with their knowledge. He swiftly became second in charge through his might and understanding, and lived a relatively peaceful life talking to outsiders when they got lost in the mountains.

His peaceful life stopped when the war with the Black Ravens began. A long, tedious series of battle would train him in the art of combat and make sure he lost a lot of what he held dear, steeling his resolve and making him a tough man to fall prey to emotion. The end of the was was with the "Long Battle", the end of which he recorded and left with the Sensates, in hopes of others reliving his memory and feeling what he did. He then decided it was time to take the ancient trial, one that was meant to turn a tribesman into a 'Protector', who would make sure that the losses they suffered during the war would not happen again. Following in his ancestor's footsteps, he stepped into the sacred heart of the mountain wearing the ancient stone necklace, and found himself transported to the Cage. This is where his trial began.
