Large

Fyodor is a massive Giff, standing roughly 9 feet tall with a heavily muscled frame.

His Large size does not automatically impose fixed combat modifiers, but the Castle Keeper should take it into account when adjudicating squeezing through confined spaces, lifting or moving him, grappling, fitting into equipment, taking cover, and similar physical situations.

Natural Armor

Fyodor’s thick hide provides substantial natural protection.

A Giff normally has a natural Armor Class of 14 + Dexterity modifier when not wearing armor. If armor is worn, use whichever provides the better base Armor Class; natural armor and worn armor do not stack.

Magical enhancement bonuses from armor still apply even when the armor’s mundane protection is inferior to the Giff’s natural hide. Shields provide their normal bonus.

Fyodor’s final Armor Class is 18.

Headbutt

Fyodor may attack with his massive head as a natural melee weapon.

Damage: 2d6 + Strength modifier

Nonmagical Nature

Fyodor possesses the inherent Giff resistance to magic.

Whenever a spell or magical effect would directly affect him, roll 1d10. On a result of 1, the magic dissipates and has no effect.

This applies to both harmful and beneficial magic.

Fyodor may voluntarily lower this resistance. If he does so, the resistance is completely suppressed until the beginning of his next turn.

Magic Item Interference

Fyodor’s resistance to magic can interfere with devices that actively channel spell effects.

Whenever he attempts to use a scroll, wand, staff, rod, or similar spell-trigger or spell-completion item, roll 1d10.

On a result of 1, the magic fizzles and produces no effect. Any charge, spell, or consumable use that would normally have been expended is still lost.

Magic weapons, armor, shields, gauntlets, girdles, and other passive or straightforward martial magic items function normally.

Firearm Specialist

Fyodor is highly trained in the use of black-powder firearms.

He gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls with firearms. This bonus is already included in his listed attack with the Nock Gun of Accuracy.

Direction Sense

Fyodor gains a +4 bonus on checks made to determine direction, maintain his bearings, retrace a route, or avoid becoming lost.

Heraldry

Fyodor gains a +3 bonus on checks involving noble heraldry, military insignia, banners, coats of arms, unit markings, and similar symbols of rank or allegiance.

Intimidation

Fyodor gains a +5 bonus on checks involving physical intimidation, threats, displays of strength, and battlefield presence.

Leadership

Fyodor gains a +4 bonus on checks involving military command, morale, rallying troops, coordinating subordinates, and maintaining discipline.

Nock Gun of Accuracy +1

Attack: +8
Damage: 3d6
Range: Near

This heavy firearm is magically enhanced for accuracy, granting +1 to attack and damage.

Ring of Free Action

Fyodor wears a Ring of Free Action.

As a passive magical item, it functions normally despite his Giff Magic Item Interference.

Equipment

Fyodor carries a pack, canteen, rations, bedroll, lantern, oil, mess kit, kit bag, mirror, ammunition pouch, and personal military gear.

Notes 

• Fyodor Trumbo is a Giff marine with the 31st Bralspace, or 'Kronenbar's Battlion' under the command of Major Colnar Kronenbar. The giff of the 31st have contracted themselves as mercenary marines under the employ of of the Rock of Bral to provide security of Wildspace since the threats of war have emerged between the Imperial Elven Navy and the Scro's Ruby Tyrant Clan. Fyodor spends part of his time as a professional soldier, part of his time as an independent adventurer.
• While under the 31st color, as of late, Fyodor is on loan to help assist with a band of adventurers that Prince Andru has assembled to take part of an operation for the security of the Rock of Bral. Fyodor has been assigned to accompany them both to provide muscle and ensure the party does not deviate too far off from the mission.
• Carries a dwarven forged 'Knock Gun' that fires several barrels at once in a devastating, cone-shaped spray of lead.
