Grugtor the Barbarian

Grugtor is a Mighty Barbarian from the Northern Reaches, the land that lies over Mount Hirikith.

He is tall and heavily muscled with a strong jaw line, he wears his dark hair up in a haphazzard topknot, he dresses in a loincloth and a number of leather straps to carry weapons on, recently he has obtained some fine Yeti Fur whilst crossing Mount Hirikith.

Grugtor made his first appearance in The Orb of Delusion where he was the most popular character ever created by Robert, a sucessful fantasy writer. Grugtor has also starred in a romance novel Grugtor the Romantic Barbarian, published when Robert when he was first starting out as an author to make some money, he used the pen name of Roberta Smith.

Robert was convinced he was infact Grugtor after a near fatal car accident that claimed the life of his wife.

Some time after meeting the version of Grugtor that was a delusion within a delusion he appeared as an actual in game character in the module Grugtor Makes an Entrance arriving at Hirikith City with his companion Marzug the Barbarian.

Marzug and Grugtor appear to be life long friends having gone on many adventures together, and frequently start discussing some adventure or another, usually ending in laughter, this can be confusing to onlookers since they do not know the context or most of the details.

Both the barbarians speak in a broken version of the common tongue, with Marzug being slightly more fluent and slightly less broken in his delivery.
