Parallax — "The General"

Race: Construct | Class: Barbarian | Background: Heavy Striker / Feigned Mindlessness


Description

7–8 feet of polished brass and blackened iron. Faded Gnomish Royal engravings cover his frame, mostly hidden beneath oversized reinforced leather aprons. When he moves, you feel it before you see it.


Personality

Recently dropped the "mindless machine" act and revealed his true sentience. Measured, strategic, and deeply observant. Speaks plainly and means what he says. Seems to carry the weight of a very long memory.


Background

A massive Royal Gnomish Guard construct. For a long time he played the role of a silent, obedient machine — "The Silent Sentry." That act is done. He is now an active strategic voice in the party and making no apologies for it.
