Kharvek Thundetstep is a 28-year-old, 8-foot-tall Goliath monk with stone-gray skin, pale silver-gray eyes, and long silver-white hair. Calm, disciplined, compassionate, and intimidating, Kharvek protects the weak and confronts those who abuse their strength. Born among a secluded mountain tribe, he left at eighteen to train at a remote monastery, where his master taught him that true strength comes through discipline, restraint, and control. When raiders destroyed the monastery and killed his master, Kharvek became a wandering Haunted One, carrying his master's prayer beads and quarter staff.
