## Personality

Antero comes off as very stern and stoic to most, but he is actually a very kind and jovial person. He is much more welcoming towards most then past tribe chiefs, and is open to giants branching out more into mewni and making themselves known. He is however a bet hesitant since he is aware of how they're viewed by most, and is cautious about making certain connections.

As a giant he enjoys battles and test of strength. He cares very deeply about his sons, and does his best to help and guide them into being both proper warriors and leaders.

### Dolores

His wife was one of the few who could match him in combat in the village, and he was barely able to best her during their courting duel. He cared for her deeply and admired her warrior spirit. When she passed away he promised her to make sure all the of the boys would be okay, and he fully intends to keep that promise.

### Sons

He cares about all of his sons, and has a close relationship with each of them. He tends to talk with Fee about certain matters the most since he is the oldest and most mature of them. He likes drinking with Fi and the two often joke around with one another. He tends to be a bit more protective over Fo and Fum. Fo has his mother's eyes with always makes him think of Dolores, and Fum being the youngest and more naive he worries over him sometimes. He knows Fum will be the strongest of them, and has a good heart. He thinks he should be the next chief, which his brothers all agree with.

### Typhon

As a friend of Matrona, he has a great respect for what he did for the giant tribe and his legend. While he is trying to get into the royal court, he regularly talks with Typhon about things that go on in the monster community. Typhon appreciates that there's still someone who holds on to the old ways. The two disagree on joining the royal court, but otherwise get along well.

### Astro

He could tell something was up with the young boy from the moment they met, and he knew he would be a good influence on Fum. He enjoys when the young prince visits the tribe, and believes that it's fate that the son of Typhon ended up becoming so close to a descendant of Matrona.
