==Background==
===Personality===
In spite of his gigantic size and apparently rough demeanor, Ludo is actually considered a gentle giant. The only reason why he becomes so brutish and bold is due to the constant bullying he suffered from the Goblins. Upon meeting Sarah, the first person who treats him with kindness, Lud becomes Sarah's protector after she saves him from Goblins. He is also protective and caring of all of his friends, especially towards Sarah, Hoggle and Didymus by summoning rocks and using them to protect his allies from the Goblins' attack. Additionally despite his impaired speech Ludo is quite intelligent. 
===Powers and Abilities===
*Lithokinesis: By letting out a mighty roar, Ludo can telepathically move rocks, mostly in the forms of attack. He telekinetically moved a rock when Ludo was being tortured by Jareth's goblin guards, which Sarah used to hit them over their helmets. He later summoned rocks that rolled down the hills and Ludo willed them to attack the goblins to save his friends. 
* Superhuman Strength': Ludo was able to tear a wall off of one of the Goblins' huts and possibly had the capacity to tear down the iron giant that guarded Goblin City.
