Ostensibly there as a hostler, the near constant Giant attacks on the city forced him into a more guard-like role. It was his idea to build fake huts/houses with spikes inside to cripple the giants when they would step on them. It seems likely that Kauri will move on from Alone soon, his personality matches his runes, and he seldom stays in any one place for too long. Kauri is 5'11", with very tanned skin and a bald head. He is more lithe than burly, protective, and a blur in combat. | After spending the majority of his life to that point working with and around mounts and livestock the laconic, quiet, and seemingly infinitely patient Kauri found himself in the newly created town of Alone.

Kauri
Level 1 Wind Lord, worshiper of Orlanth, Heortlian
After spending the majority of his life to that point working with and around mounts and livestock the laconic, quiet, and seemingly infinitely patient Kauri found himself in the newly created town of Alone. Ostensibly there as a hostler, the near constant Giant attacks on the city forced him into a more guard-like role. It was his idea to build fake huts/houses with spikes inside to cripple the giants when they would step on them. It seems likely that Kauri will move on from Alone soon, his personality matches his runes, and he seldom stays in any one place for too long. Kauri is 5'11", with very tanned skin and a bald head. He is more lithe than burly, protective, and a blur in combat.

Backgrounds
Lead Hills cowboy: 4
Kauri's history really starts in the Lead Hills, just south and west of Whitehall. It was there he herded and drove cattle and horses. He rides a horse like its an extension of himself, and even to this day finds himself out of his element in cities.
Caravan guard in Caravan Alley: 3
Wanting to learn to ride more exotic beasts Kauri traveled to Prax, where he was able to see the nomads and their many different mounts. To his regret, he never got to ride one.
Giant fighter in Alone: 1
After leaving Prax Kauri fell in with some settlers and wound up helping to found the small town of Alone. There he helped fortify and defend the town from giants who resented this incursion of the small folk.
