Faction/Role in Faction: Toreau Family, King of Farrun and Captain of the Queen's Halberd.

Bio: Tormund is the chief of the Toreau family. He's loud, boisterous and fierce and would be often mistaken for a commoner if he wasn't so unique. A unusualy tall and muscular breton, he Captains the Queen's Halberd, a ship he named after the love of his life: Allera. They met in Skyrim, when Tormund was still a young fellow traveling around the Provinces, a ritual that all men of the Toreau family must endure to be rewarded with a ship and a crew. He aided the young breton girl to destroy a Hag's coven only because she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen and he was a fool in love. She joined him in his adventures throughout Tamriel and he learned that she was a breton born in 'Skyrim's lands', a 'high born' reachwoman that escaped her people long time ago because of her hatred for their ways. The adventurers quickly fell for eachother, having their firstborn, Balin, 4 years later when their journeys brought them back to High Rock to finally make the marriage official. The Toreau are said to have giant's blood running through their veins, because they are all very tall and Balin was not different, managing to overgrow his father by 3 inches yet that was the only thing that they differed as Balin is a mirror to his father. Quickly the family grew with Dormund, Balla, Amond and most recently Stromo. Their culture is heavily based on a sea life, making Farrun heavily fortified by the land and poorly by the seas, a strategy thought by Tormund himself when younger after the Toreau's lands were destroyed by forces of the nature.

His story has much more into it, but for now all that is known is that he set sail to Shornhelm to attend the High King's funeral.

Equipment: Halberd called Grey Rose.

Faction/Role in Faction: Toreau Family, Queen of Farrun and Captain of the Red Rose.

Bio: See Tormund's bio. (Only a few things that I think need tweeking.

First off I know that the Toreaus are supposed to be really tall but 7'5 and 7'8 are extremely tall, especially for a Breton. Average Breton height is around 5'6 or so. 5'11 for them is pretty tall, as they are the smaller built of the Human races. You can have them be genetically taller but a bit larger than 6'3 would make more sense, being that 7'8 is ridiculously tall even for the tallest race (Altmer). Other than not passing through 99.99% of all doors in High Rock it would a bit weird being that ridiculously tall. They'd be like this, almost twice the size of other Bretons.

One thing about his bio, "Their culture is heavily based on a sea life, making Farrun heavily fortified by the land and poorly by the seas, a strategy thought by Tormund himself when younger after the Toreau's lands were destroyed by forces of the nature." Wouldn't it be the other way around, since they have a strong navy and a crappy army. Their land fortifications would be poor and their sea fortifications would be strong.

Now for Allera, if she was a Reachmen then she is a Reachmen, not a Breton. There is a difference. They are more than just a seperate culture, they have a somewhat different biology to the Bretons. That is because the Reachmen have interbreed with other races, mostly Nords and Orcs, in the past eras. Which naturally would mean they are a bit taller, but not my much in Breton standards. Average height about 5'9 or so.

PS.: If she was raised in the Reach then she would have tribal facial tattoos, that is part of their culture.)
