Kaelar The Ash-Walker

Kaelar The Ash-Walker
Kaelar is an anomaly among the Giantfolk—a brilliant inventor and tactician rather than a mindless brute. He has spent decades analyzing captured Steamfort technology, reverse-engineering steam engines and clockwork mechanisms to run on raw geothermal power and magma.
The Magma-Mech Project
Operating from a heavily fortified forward forge, Kaelar is currently perfecting his "Magma-Mechs"—hulking suits of powered armor designed for Giantfolk warriors. These constructs blend traditional giant strength with devastating arcane-mechanical weaponry. If he succeeds in mass-producing these suits, the balance of power in the region will irrevocably shift in favor of the Cinder-Skull clan.
