Thurg

Thurg (born 4125) is a Fog Giant who worked with the alchemist Elva against the Metallic Pact. He was last spotted in her shop in Highcrest Harbour. He is wanted by the Highcrest Harbour Port Authority, a 100gp bounty has been placed on his head.

Early Life
Thurg was born on the south face of Mt. Renegal, near where Westwood ends and the Tepid Marsh begins. He was raised in the forest by a small community of fog giants, and as he reached adulthood, he became a cleric, honing his divine magical skills.

Black Dragons
Thurg's community on the mountain had frequent run ins with various dragons, and even cooperated with green dragons in Westwood. The black dragons of the marsh, however, frequently attacked the giants, most notably in a deadly raid that left all but Thurg slain. Thurg swore vengeance on the black brood, ranging into the Tepid Marsh and rallying a force of swamp giants to his cause. Various skirmishes resulted in many injuries and a few swamp giant deaths, but little in the way of revenge was achieved.

Elva's Plot
Thurg met Elva while she was searching for rare herbs in the swamp. They each quickly recognized the value in the other, and traded goods and information, becoming associates. Elva's potion shop was a perfect place for her to scout out wealthy travellers who were heading past the swamp by way of the Cyan River. Thurg and his swamp giants cohorts would lie in wait among a cloud of mist and spring their trap on the unsuspecting merchants and adventurers.

The scheme backfired on the 3rd of Wealsun, 4218, when Thurg and four swamp giants set a trap and were attacked by a green dragon before the travellers arrived. They staved off the attack and forced the dragon to retreat, but sustained heavy injuries and 2 swamp giant fatalities. To make a bad situation worse, the travellers who came by were none other than Dav Zord, Mad Mardigan, Kroq'gar and Venthyr, who made short work of Rak and Brol, the remaining swamp giants, and then proceeded to capture Thurg, binding him to a nearby tree while they rested.

Thurg managed to escape his bonds in the night, fleeing back to The Crone's Cure, Elva's alchemy shop, to find potions with which to strike his revenge. He very nearly did strike his revenge when, shortly after his strength had returned to him, a surprised Dav Zord and Mad Mardigan found him there when they tried to find Elva in the shop. They escaped Thurg's wrath, and Thurg fled Highcrest Harbour. Elva was arrested and brought to justice by the Metallic Pact. Thurg has not been reported seen since.
