Roggan
Description:
ROGGAN
Iron Fist Earth Warlock, Follower of Apis
Roggan is a male Troglodyte. He is 5’ tall, and around 140 lbs. Troglodytes are naturally ‘Fluffy’, but since he’s light, he has very little fat on his arms or legs. Troglodytes are humanoid, with webbed hands that are reminiscent of frogs, and lizard-like feet and head. They have very large, dark eyes. Roggan’s are deep brown, almost black. Skin tone is grey, and Roggan is very pale. They have fangs protruding from their lips. Roggan has been exiled for most of his life, so he doesn’t have the same afinity for pure stone weapons, he also feels that working stone with chisels and picks is mean. He uses a dwarven halberd, expertly made, and a war maul with a polished wooden handle that has Apis’ symbol etched and painted on it. He always has his Sun Sight Amulet on, as his sight in daylight is atrocious, and he always has his hood up, to protect his eyes, except in shadow. He has a pet rock, made of Schist, called Bluto; He never goes anywhere without him. He has a silver ring with Apis’ symbol on his index finger. He’s always picking up special rocks, and putting them into his small leather pouches, as he’s always happy to take new ‘rock friends’ with him.
While in the city of Rivendyne, Roggan created a Stone Golem named Gina
Later on, the below happens:
On a plaque, magically sealed into the bow of the ship known across Palladium as Matilda, it says,
‘Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.’
Roggan was an Iron Golem, all gleaming surfaces with a twinkle in his onyx eyes, a functioning mouth, and an extra pair of smaller arms at his sides for delicate tasks. He was 20 feet tall, and weighed 3,400 pounds. His form was reminiscent of a human, but almost deformed by muscular formations in his torso. As a golem, he wore no clothes, but luckily Roggan does not have a perfect working anatomic knowledge of humans, so there was no problem. He had a white cape, though it was big enough to be used as a tent by most races. Roggan crafted this Iron Golem body himself, and with the help of Master Kel-ed in Wisdom, he transferred his essence into it.
While in the city of Rivendyne, Roggan created a Stone Golem named Gina that died while CrIsis visited Wisdom.

Roggan meet Apis!! Roggan never more happy in Roggan life! Apis send Roggan to new friends.
Explanation:
Troglodytes exile, but do not hunt down, any magic-wielding Trog. They don’t have as much fear of other magic-wielding races, since they rarely have contact with them.
Murodin took Roggan in after his exile. Roggan received Bluto from Murodin, which then became his best, and oldest, friend. Murodin converts Roggan to Apis, and despite his time with his next mentor, he never lets go of those teachings. After Murodin passed, Roggan received the Obaru, (not a horse) which Murodin had trained him how to ride during their travels. Roggan named his new steed ‘Murodin’ in memorium of his guardian
They passed by Wrijin a lot while Murodin was alive, on expeditions to the northern mines, where he met a Wolven Warlock, Wakiw. Wakiw taught Roggan how to harness his natural magic abilities, and lived with Roggan for a majority of his life. They grew close, and will attest to anyone that asks they are siblings.
Roggan’s original body was a tall male Troglodyte, a picture can be found here, and he lived in it for over 60 years. He uses a magic Stone Staff, a dwarven halberd, expertly made, and a war maul with a polished wooden handle that has Apis’ symbol etched and painted on it. He has a pet rock, made of Schist, called Bluto; He never goes anywhere without him. He has a silver ring with Apis’ symbol on a neclace around his neck, and the Ring of CrIsis on his right ring finger. He’s always picking up special rocks, and putting them into his small leather pouches, as he’s always happy to take new ‘rock friends’ with him.
