Khar'gan

Khar'gan is a towering, crocodile-headed lizardfolk of about seventeen summers, from a small, secluded tribe in the northwest Soddenlands. Having earned no real battle honors at home, he left to seek worthy conflict for his clan, working his way up the coast through Rahadoum and into old Cheliax before rumors of Isger's instability drew him toward the fighting. He's seven-foot-two of mottled green scale and functional muscle — spined crest, amber predator's eyes, banded tail, and well-worn leather-and-plate.

He fights like someone braced for trouble from any direction: a magically enhanced bow and quiver on his back, a battleaxe and shortsword at his waist, later trading up to the ranged Crimson Thorn. Beyond raw combat he stabilizes the wounded and teaches survival skills — traps, fish traps, safe versus deadly berries — and shows a lighter side too (the memorable pink-paint incident with Lexx). Lately he's been nursing broken ribs, and he's the type to fight on even blinded by supernatural darkness, as he did hunting the Attic Whisperer by instinct.
