Long Hall Tallshadow
Hall Tallshadow
The descendant of an ancient line of giants that stretches back to the first on his mother's side, his father a High Giant with an ancestor who had stumbled the other way across The Webs of Inter from Vanaheim. But that's a different story.
Back when he was a young High Giant, only a couple hundred years old, Hall set off on a quest to the dangerous source of Deep Diamonds, in the abyssal bay of the Isle of Goedor. The problem is, that island is home to some Eldritch horrors, with the big ones down in that fearsome deep.
After befriending some of the island-dwelling baby horrors and luring them into a game of bobbing for diamonds, he managed to gather the largest trove of the gems ever seen on the surface and bring them back to his home on the Village of Rimien in the middle of Starbourne Lake, trailing into the Void.
Using the Deep Diamonds to see The Webs of Inter sparkling blue violet lights tracing across the black mirror of the lake to guide his way like tracer bullets made of stars, he became the first to discover the northern passage through the Void to Vanaheim on the other side (on purpose).
Because Vanaheim is not nearly as cut off from the world as Jotunheim, he was able to trade Deep Diamonds and his discoveries with the northern Vanahamian islands to secure elven imports to his hard and rugged homeland forevermore.
He returned to the Isle of Rim a hero, and as an immortal, has plenty of time to enjoy it, so long as he doesn't tempt his luck with any of the huge and scary things he's always seeming to run across in his voyages.
In the centuries that followed he had some run ins with the Gaardians of the Good, and became a preeminent member in the north, always keeping an eye on the activities of The Gaw and what was coming out of it.
