Torgan Legionnaire

Adversary overview
A massive ram-headed giant with cloven hooves, tempered by endless war.
The Torgan are built for conquest in the most literal sense. Even the smallest among them stands taller than most men, their frames thick with corded muscle that seems less grown than forged. They move with a heavy, deliberate strength, digitigrade legs ending in split hooves that strike stone with a sound like distant war-drums. Their skin varies from ash-gray to basalt-black to rust-red, textured more like hardened hide than flesh. Blades bite them poorly. Bruises fade quickly. Scars are not hidden but carved deeper, ritualized into spirals and jagged lines that speak of battles survived.
The most numerous of their kind bear the heads of great rams. Sweeping horns curl from their skulls, often etched with tally marks, runes, or iron clamps hammered directly into bone. Their eyes glow faintly in darkness, amber or ember-red, sometimes a pale bone-white that reflects torchlight without warmth. These Torgan do not consider themselves soldiers in the way mortal kingdoms understand the word. They are raised in a culture where pain is instruction and fear is weakness to be burned away. From youth they are shaped into living weapons, each given a name only after surviving their first true contest of strength. Alone, a single ram-headed Torgan is a terror. In formation, they are a landslide of horn and iron.
