==Appearance== | |||
Kapoka is large and impressive being, standing much taller than a man or even elf, with tall deer like horns adding to his impressive stature. While he lacks the bulk of an [[ogre]], the Gladewalker is immensely strong. Covered in a thick, bark like skin, his only clothing is a chequered garment, held on by large golden pins. Able to rend with his bare hands and cast powerful magic, Kapoka does not necessarily need weapon art, although he does carry a tall, blade tipped Druid’s staff. | |||

{{TheWarlordofGalahirlogo}}The Druid was not the only being intent on hunting down the orc warlord. Skullsplitter had made other enemies, in particular a human settlement in need of a band of hero’s to fight their cause. Kapoka joined up with a band of heroes that been recruited by a local village to extract a merchant from the orc’s lair, and so he set off with [[Hrrath Flamespitter]], [[Thesilar]] the elf and [[Guraf Dammerson]]. | {{TheWarlordofGalahirlogo}}The Druid was not the only being intent on hunting down the orc warlord.

Communicating with his new associates telepathically, the ancient tree guardian led the group deep into the warlords lair at [[Penn-Scarr]], providing a cautious but relentless focus. When the merchant was freed and the orcs treasures found, it was Kapoka that urged the others to continue in and confront the orc. That confrontation ended in [[Kapoka]] taking his revenge in a way only a being of his size and strength could. Suffice to say Thrundak never desecrated another forest again. | Communicating with his new associates telepathically, the ancient tree guardian led the group deep into the warlords lair at [[Penn-Scarr]], providing a cautious but relentless focus.

It was there, just before the events of Halp’s Rift, that the Green Lady found him. While he did not want to return to those violent ways, Kapoka conceded to accompany the Lady’s forces once again, healing and supporting, if not fighting. | |||
