Intellectual Characteristics

Mirroden will sometimes surprise you with his wisdom. He is a capable strategist, don't expect him to blow you away at trivia night at the local tavern though.

Morality & Philosophy

Mirroden believes in the traditions of the Goliath. Competition in everything, constantly improve. NEVER purposefully kill another competitor. Even in the battles for territory the Goliath will not kill one another. Some soldiers will come home with scrapes and bruises, occasionally a broken bone, but they will come home alive. If an invading Clan wins, the losing clan will be given time to pack up and leave to find a new area to protect. Mirroden extends this to other humanoids, with an exception to Orcs as they are considered animals to the Goliath, though meeting Balanos - The Great Oak has him changing his mind. Mirroden would never purposefully kill another humanoid. This was sadly one of the things that Zuggtmoy had corrupted in him during his pact.
