A Dragerørt or "dragon touched" individual, someone who has been physically as well as mentally affected by the bond with their dragon over the years. This is a rare occurrence in trolls that have achieved an almost enlightened state of connection with their dragons. It takes decades for a troll to be as heavily mutated as Mahi'onn is - in typical cases, that is. The only other known Dragerørt that survived the culling of riders in the kingdom is King Korgmak’tun, who went through the process in a much shorter span of time and displays the most frightening and dramatic features of such a change to ever be recorded.
Name: Mahi'onn
Sex: Male
Age: 74
What would be middle age in your average troll, but as a bonded his lifespan is expected to extend far beyond the norm.
Height and Build:
A large and hairy troll of unusual and notably fierce appearance (see: Dragerørt), standing at 8'2 and of heroic athletic proportions; toned musculature is much more broad than lean, but still on the dexterous side. Mahi'onn is prone to dropping to all fours to cross distances with greater speed and power. It should be noted he has not always been quite so tall, extra height and durability among his mutations.
Race: Desert-Mountain
A desert and mountain troll hybrid from the deep red sand gorges, a mixed people who have grown in enough numbers over enough generations to have been given the unofficial title of 'rudrocks' (semi-derisive slang) or 'canyon' trolls. They have become known as an adept warrior trading people, but some consider them nothing more than the barbarian hordes their settlements originated from. There is not much known about their fledgling culture due to their secluded nature, which leads many to claim that as the descendants of thieves have likely combined the worst of both worlds.
Physical Description:
An older warrior with rusty red, heavily speckled skin and darker markings made up of jagged lines and splotches. They light up a pale, almost white blue in response to strong emotion to match his eyes, a dark blue with significantly lighter sclera. When glowing they make the heavy scarring across his body all that more distinct - this is a troll that has seen many battles. A mane of long, uneven white hair hangs with a low wave, often seen with braids to disguise areas where it has mysteriously been cut shorter - it grows very long, but tends to stay around his shoulders. This troll is quite hairy in general, thick beard and white body hair standing out against his skin. A pair of droopy, but still rather expressive ears point downward from behind his dramatic crest.
Horns:
Mahi'onn once had a pair of fine horns, oxlike and strong – they are now part of his mutations and the tallest of four pairs of horns that make up a split crest extending from his forehead. Also affected by the bond with his dragon are his nose, which has taken on many more snout like qualities and developed a stubby horn and his brows, which are now spiked ridges rather than hair.
Tusks:
Is quite toothy, with large lower tusks and smaller, outer upper tusks - as a result he as a distinct slur a bit on the heavier side. In combination with a grumbling tone it can at times be difficult to understand him. Mahi'onn has broken and regrown his tusks due to reckless battle - and dining - habits many, many times and they are often damaged.
Tail:
A thick tail that reaches to his ankles, balancing his bulky posture and heavy head - is dangerous to be hit by, sides displaying tapering spikes down the sides and squat 'caps' of much shorter and less intimidating spikes down the center. There is an shorter underside of scraggly hair that tapers off before it reaches tail tip.
Occupation:
Chief of Rødkropp, General to Korgmak’tun
Previously a member of Baalrag’uut’s council of 25
Skills:
battle, leadership, survival, hunting, dragon husbandry, cooking, ancient ceremonial traditions and superstitions
