Inglorious Monsters:Sior

Background

A gentle but intimidating giant, Sior hails from the North, the bitter cold and wind bracing body and soul in the struggle to survive. He’s seen a lot of death in his day, and with that came the Awakening that showed him the Truth behind the Lie. One day, out of nowhere, Sior was approached by a man named Agent Starr. He offered Sior a deal - help stop the Nazis and their reign of terror, and in doing so he could not only help many people, but potentially find artifacts of great power. Sior accepted, especially after learning that the Nazis had converted many Scelestus to their cause and were trucking with the Abyss.

Appearance

Sior is seven feet tall, incredibly fit and muscular, with shoulder-length dark hair and tattoos covering most of his body. He wears his numerous scars as marks of pride and accomplishment.
