Arrk is a well-known troll mercenary that currently operates in the Lake of Steam region. While he is known to reliably hold up his end of a bargain, Arrk has the bad habit of eating people who don't do the same. He often finds work as a caravan guard or as a bodyguard, work that allows him to succumb to his natural bloodlust.^[1]

[edit] Personality

While he is smaller than normal trolls, Arrk is a bit more intelligent (though still possessing a quite short attention span) and trustworthy. Arrk has a disturbing habit of licking his +1 spell storing greatsword, which is cursed to continually bleed, whenever he is nervous or bored. ^[1]

[edit] Background

As he was somewhat diminuitive within his tribe, Arrk was forced to leave their cruelty. After stumbling across and joining a group of bandits, he discovered a true knack for the work. Finding the compensation of looting to be less than he wished, Arrk began working in a mercenary company, leading to his current lot in life.^[1]

[edit] Possessions

Along with his cursed spell-storing sword (that posesses an inflict serious wounds spell), Arrk carries with him two masterwork throwing axes, a chain shirt and a gold necklace that acts as a ring of featherfalling.^[1]
