Gharl is a troll imprisoned in the prison of the Yewish High Court.

Description[edit]

It is unknown for what crime Gharl was imprisoned, although it seems likely that his predicament might relate to his culture's penchant for waylaying human travelers.

Should the Avatar meet Gharl while adventuring in the realm, the hero would find the troll starving and severely malnourished due to such neglect.[1]

Should the Avatar offer Gharl a gift of food, the troll would prove thankful and reveal that his people had made a strange ally in recent years; a supernatural voice that would warn them of approaching danger.[2]
