Abriax
Appearance
Abriax is a tall, powerfully built creature. Standing at a massive Nine Foot Seven Inches (or two hundred, ninty two centimeters), and weighing in at Five Hundred, Eighty Five pounds (or two hundred, sixty five kilos), Abriax is nothing to shake a stick at... Because he might eat it. Massive teeth jut from his bottom jaw, ever ready it seemed to eat and feast upon anything he could fit his mouth around.
Across his grey/green skin are what appears to be tattoos, in some sort of tribal pattern, but what they mean is known only to Abriax. At the ends of each of his arms are powerful hands and razor sharp claws. His feet are five toed, however they all end in talons, and the fourth and fifth claw is a dew claws, and seem to be largely unimportant.
Most often seen traveling at night, Abriax tends to keep himself wrapped in an old leather cloak, made from several other leather cloaks, and keeps himself out of the way of others for the most part. Under the cloak, he wears a simple, if ragtag, pants made of crudely stitched together leather.

Skills and Abilities
Brawler – Though Abriax carries a club, he is not exactly trained in any kind of specialized combat. He is simply a physically powerful brute, swinging around a weapon made of wood, leather, and a saber tooth tiger skull.
Regeneration – Abriax is... Difficult to kill at best. Beyond his physical might, his body recovers from wounds at insane rates. Unless the body is burned to ashes, melted to a puddle with acid, or frozen solid (though regeneration will resume if he is thawed out), Abriax will heal quickly. Removed limbs, sword slashes, blunt force trauma, it doesn't matter. Abriax is a survivor.
Inhuman Strength – Beyond just his raw size, Abriax is a physically powerful being. Due to the natural regeneration, his muscles use more of their raw might, as there is a lack of fear of damage to the limbs. Thanks to this, his hands are living weapons, with pointed claws at the end of his fingers, able to rend and tear flesh, along with a powerful jaw and deadly bite.
Inhuman Endurance – Thanks to his biology, the massive intake of food on a daily basis, and simply the nature of his race, Abriax has more stamina than most could ever dream of, allowing him to fight, train, run, swim, or any nature of physical activities for a long period of time.
Natural Armor – Abriax's hide is thick, nearly to the rank of being armor in and of itself. Thanks to this, his body is able to ignore (though he still feels) weaker physical strikes.
Amazing sense of smell – Abriax has a sense of smell that can go beyond that of a hound in terms of how keen it can be.
Dark vision – Abriax, like most trolls, can see in the dark, though the distance is limited to around forty five feet or so.
Unending Hunger – The regeneration of the Trolls in natural, not magical. As such, his body has a massive demand for fuel, and he has to consume a large amount of food to keep up with this demand. His diet, while he CAN eat nearly anything organic, tends to be focused on the side of meat, as it provides him with the most resources for his body.
Limited Intelligence – Abriax is... Not very bright. While he is not as dull witted as his usual kin would be, he clearly is not the brightest torch in a bunch.
Poor Hearing – Due the way his race had evolved, trolls are not keen of hearing. Abriax is no exception to this, and tends to have to focus when he is being talked to, and can be often caught by surprise when people sneak up on him.
Sensitivity to Light – Due to how Trollish eyes have evolved, Abriax's eyes are in pain when he is in bright light, and tends to stick to shadowy areas.
Stigma – He is a troll. Most people dislike trolls. He has to deal with that... All. The. Time.

Personality
Abriax is a loner, for the most part. He tends to keep to himself, keep out of sight, and simply, stay out of mind. There is no small part of his mind that doesn't think he isn't being hunted for various reasons. He is still a Troll after all.
Beyond that, he tends to speak to those he has learned to trust, showing dedication and loyalty to people who have earned it, but he rarely gives out true trust. He is considered to be dull of wit and limited by human standards, but to his own kind, he is a genius, and has the ego to back it. In combat, he follows suit with many of his kind, simply unafraid of death, savage and wild in battle.

Biography & Lore
Abriax is old. Very old, at least in terms of years alive. A VAST majority of that time, however, has been spent frozen solid, in a sort of... Suspended animation. During the time he was active before, he left on some kind of trek, some sort of journey, and as such, went to a remote mountain top. Upon this mountain, he became entombed in ice, the water of an ancient lake.
As time had progressed, the frozen block of troll was discovered. Seeking a rare opportunity, he was cut out from the lake's frozen grip, in a large block, and sent to the College of Elbion for study, thinking an intact body a troll would fetch a good price.
Due to the heat of the summer weather however, and the fact that Abriax was frozen, but not dead, it did not take long for the ice to melt enough for Abriax to escape his icy prison and slip free of the guards who once locked him away. Much had changed, and Abriax had spent a lot of time relearning words, finding ways to hide, and to find food... so much time hunting for food.
Now, he wanders the streets and sewers of Elbion, seeking out food and doing what he can to survive, and keep his presence as little known as possible.
