Hroltar the Boaster

Hroltar the Boaster is a Reachman houseguest in . He can be purchased from the Crown Store for 1,500 and placed in any owned home. Like all houseguests, he can be spoken to and configured to walk around the house and perform certain animations. Hroltar wears heavy Ancestral Reach armor.
==Background==
Hroltar is a member of the Undaunted, and a former member of the Stonehands which he believed he was supposed to lead before being exiled by Caddach. He grew up in The Reach as a warrior, and, although illiterate, is a fierce fighter.
Hroltar claims that he once attempted to sail to Yokuda but was devoured by a slaughterfish the size of a "leviathan." He survived by eating the remains of a Sea Sload and fashioning a raft until the slaughterfish belched. Hroltar also claims to have met Vivec and Almalexia and expresses a desire to meet Sotha Sil, as well as having invented the term "took a licking" when he killed a troll with his tongue.
Hroltar, despite being illiterate, created the spell that are a part of the Scroll of Glorious Battle that empowers one's enemies with great ability, making them more challenging and difficult to defeat. The Scrolls are said not to be short on "colorful language." 
==Personality==
Hroltar is brash and abrasive with others in his demeanour and is often highly braggadocios. He has a distain for Nords, referring to them as "fungi," and other "civilized folk." Although he claims that he is not boastful, Hroltar often tells of his grand adventures and exploits in battle. He holds beliefs typical of many Reachmen, including preferring minimal armor in battle "as nature intended" and seeing extravagance as having the appearance of being "soft," namely for the Undaunted.
==Quotes==
*"Being Undaunted isn't all that impressive. For the most part we're a bit soft. Fancy tents, extravagant libations. Few of us know real hardship. I mean, I've had to weave nether-garments with my own hair to keep my jibblies from freezing off!"
*"Don't let the rest of the Undaunted feed you that guar spew about how armor makes the fighter. They traipse around like little lordlings in their bewitched britches. bah! A real warrior charges in bare as the day they were born!"
*"Find one of my Scrolls of Glorious Battle. They're brilliant! Didn't know a lick of magic at the time, but that didn't stop me. I beat those words into pages by sheer force of will. Image the outcomes if I could actually read and write!"
*"Folk are always going on about how great the Dwarves were. The buildings, the machines, the seemingly endless supply of mechanical spiders. Well, if they were so great, how come they're all gone? Give a Reachfolk two sticks and we live forever!"
*"Have you heard about the Dragon sightings? Don't know what all the fuss is about. How tough could they be if the lot of them were mostly killed off centuries ago? Reachfolk have been warring with Nords for a lot longer and we're still kicking!"
*"I can't recall the last time I witnessed a good knife-fight. How do civilized folk settle their differences these days?"
*"I could have been the ard if I hadn't let Caddach take the Markarth throne. You're probably thinking, but Hroltar, didn't you want to rule the Reach? Never! Thrones are nothing but traps for arses, and my arse refuses to be tied down!"
*"I have a taste for blackbird pie. Not that Nord abomination. A right proper Reach pie, made with whole blackbirds, beak and all! Wrothgar Orcs make a decent crow trifle, but it's not the same."
*"I love climbing mountains, but it's dangerous business! I once scaled the highest peak in the Druadachs only to find myself staring into the yes of a Giantess. Hey, it was dark. And there was a blizzard. Still, it was the best climb I every made!"
*"I was supposed to be the head of the ard's Stonehands by now, wrestling Giants and pummeling Nords from the back of a bull mammoth. But Caddach got too comfy on his stone throne. He didn't much care for my counsel on the state of his sorry arse."
*"I wasn't always an Undaunted. Started out as a warrior in the Reach. Served as one of Ard Caddach's royal Stonehands, I did. But you make one little mistake and they exile you for life. Stupid reekers, the lot of them!"
*"Now, Hroltar is not one to boast about his accomplishments, but I once fended off a dozen Nord warriors wielding axes while pleasuring two dozen Nord shield maidens. It was a dare, so it wasn't like I could refuse."
*"Pants are for Nords and other lesser forms of fungi. I only wear them to be polite. But after midday and about eight mugs of beer, I make no promises."
*"Reachfolk say: Hroltar, what are you doing in the Undaunted? Undaunted say: Hroltar, why aren't you back in the Reach? Hroltar says: dobber off and mind your own business. Hroltar is exactly where he's supposed to be. For the most part."
*"This one's on me, Undaunted. Cheers! You've made quite a reputation for yourself. Nowhere near as mine, but worthy of congratulations just the same." – When the Vestige reaches Undaunted skill level 10
*"Tries to sail to Yokuda once. A slaughterfish the size of a leviathan swallowed by boat. Nearly starved before I found a Sea Sload stuck in its guts. Ate like a king and had enough left to fashion a raft and sail out when the great fish ... belched."
*"What a night! Wandered into a cave full of wispmothers. Looked like some sort of Nord sewing circle, except for the floating lights. Though I was in for a battle, but they just wanted some company. Luckily, Hroltar knows how to please the ladies."
*"What are you looking at? Ain't you never seen an Undaunted Reachman before? I'm not a dancing bear, so close you gape, go piddle in the corner, and fetch me a beer!"
*"What's it like to grow up in the Reach? You raise yourself in the wild, squeezing juice out of strangler vines for nourishment and wrestling bristleback piglets for a rare taste of sow meat. And that's while we're still crawling on all fours!"
*"Who's a high and mighty Undaunted now? Welcome to the elite level, milord! Shall I wash your fancy britches for you? Bah! Come back and see me when you're ready to wrestle a pit full of lurchers in nothing but bare skin as nature intended." – When the Vestige reaches Undaunted skill level 10
*"You happen to know the way to the Clockwork City? I've had a go at two of the three Tribunal and I'll be damned if I don't get a notch in my belt for the third."
*"You look like someone stuffed a horker into a Goblin and then beat it with dead mammoth. Rough right?"
*"You're an adventurer, huh? Is that what they're calling your king these days? It's a wonder you know how to walk and wash your own nethers, but if you say so ...."
*"You've seen it all? A real Undaunted would go back and see it again. But this time blindfolded and with both arms tied behind their back! The expression, took a licking? I invented it when I killed a troll with my tongue! What have you done lately?"
