Halstar

 

Halstar in his human form is an enormous man with a bushy red beard and long hair tied back in braids. His most obvious feature is a huge, protruding pot belly, which only looks less than overwhelming because of his tree-trunk arms and legs. His personality is a fair match, being incredibly hearty and noisy. Halstar customarily dresses in fine (if somewhat grease-spotted) clothes, with plenty of jewellery and goes nowhere without his axe. However, he is generous to a fault, always ready to share his wealth and table with others - particularly those he finds worthy - honest, struggling folk and honourable warriors. In his bearish form, he appears even larger, with greyish grizzled fur. But even in this form, he retains traces of his great stomach.
