Frost Stridefoot the Talldark

Frost Stridefoot the Talldark is one of the many adventurers and heroes that have popped up all across Zaltyr in the 5th Age. He’s one of the main protagonists of the Reign of the Heartless saga.

History
Abandoned as a baby on a battlefield, the dark Drow child was adopted by the Halfling Stridefoot clan, who named him Frost for the white shock of hair on his head. As he grew, the boy soon towered over the others, who now also called him the Talldark. The boy had a fire in his spirit like the red of his eyes, but the Clan embraced his nature and tempered the fire within him, training him to be their fiercest defender. Although keeping him hidden from the eyes of the outsiders, hunting in the shadows.

He enjoyed the skill of the rapier. His father had acquired it for him through trade. He nicknamed it Stingwell.

While on a giant crocodile hunt he gained a scar, before killing the beast and taking its hide as a shield and its fang as a talisman.

The Stridefoot clan, nomads, kept to the outskirts of the civilized world. It was no surprise that these outsiders often encountered persecution. One such encounter ended in the murder of his clan at the hands of another clan, the Grimdanks. A clan of orks. Frost hunted them down and killed them all. Now he wanders the world, looking to aid those who find themselves without a clan.

Appearance
Frost is a tall Drow, very tall for a Drow. He stands at 6’3”, with deep purple skin and a head of shock white hair, and a long white beard as well. His hair is tied up in a bun, held there with the feather of an eagle.

His chest is marred with three individual scars, one on his left shoulder from the claws of a giant crocodile, one right above his heart from an encounter with a dragon, and the final one being right on his abdomen from being stabbed with a sword.

He wears a cape made from the pelt of a wolf and the shoddily done leather bandolier which holds many bones of a chicken leg. Around his neck is the talisman made from a giant crocodile fang. He wears very torn leather pants, held up only by the belt that contains his trusty rapier, Stingwell. With fur boots adorned on his feet.
