Barbarian Befuddled-Peasant's Passion (Wolvenrogue and Kathria)
Golgath came to the region in search of easy plunder, and the agrarian village of Illium,only 2 miles from the sea, looked to be an easy target. Their were several dozen small houses surrounded by a large number of peasant farms that were run on land rented from an absentee Lord, and he was not of much consequence, have little or no garrison to protect his holdings. Though there was little in the way of gold or other riches in the village, it did have two things which Golgath prized, good food and young women, and he planned on having his fill of both over the next few weeks as he pillaged in random fashion, taking what he fancied and generally terrorizing the populace. This was by no means a new practice for Golgath, but one that the huge barbarian lone wolf had honed to perfection. He would enter an area, take what he wanted over a period of weeks and then move on to greener pastures.
To say that Golgath was huge was something of an understatement. He stood 6 ft 7inches tall , and was a 240 pound mass of muscle. His physical lifestyle had left him without any visible fat despite the huge quantities of food he would consume daily to feed the muscles that rippled on every part of his body. He was only partially clothed most of the time and what he did wear was mostly leather. Normally just a loin cloth,boots, and forearm guards. His hair was sandy colored and shoulder length, and his eyes a piercing blue. He was such a formidable sight as he entered a village, that unless they were well armed, the residents would usually simply run in fear, rather than confront him, leaving him to take what he pleased.
He had set up his camp up in the surrounding forest, and together with his war horse Beal and his huge dog Onan he had bedded down for the night, and mulled over his plans for the next day when he would pillage a small cottage on the outskirts of the village. His nose had led him to it. There was a smokehouse out behind it which smelled of smoked meats and fish, and the line in the back yard hung with cotton dresses, a sure indication there was at least one young female in residence.
