I never had the pleasure of reading - let alone playing - Duck Tower, but would love to see a HW conversion. In the mean time, I've been building up a small collection of Durulz PCs/NPCs. Hrolf's long term ambition is to become a hundredthane of Durulz and to free them from the Hooman oppression. Blackbeak (below) is Horlf's follower-soon-to- be-ally.
Blackbeak: a Truth-seeking Durulz deathdrake of Hereward's Legion and the Thunder Ducks. With intimidating glare and piercing quack, he is quick, tough, strong and vicious. Knows many feats: Lightning Draw, Cut Anything, Kill Flame, and The Wound That Weeps. Grimbeak Deathblade his mentor taught him Walk Between Raindrops and Speak with Ravens (ravens love him). He is friendly with the Lismelder and Zola Fel Riverfolk. He loves Babeester Gor and wants to be an axe maiden, but admires Hrolf. He knows many jokes and riddles – especially dirty ones. Blackbeak is alert and clever, and dodges wearing the Grasshopper Boots and fine equipment.
Hrolf is a lonely Heortling warrior, a disciplined devotee of Humakt dedicated to the Legion of Death. He severed his clan ties to defend his mentor, the Durulz Grimbeak Deathblade. Grimbeak taught Hrolf how to Walk Between Raindrops, swim tirelessly and lead Deathdrakes (two travel with him). Hrolf is intelligent and orates convincingly, if seldom (unless drinking). A sharp-eyed archer, he impressed his comrades with stealth, deceptive speed (he's big) and cool headedness. Hrolf spends all his money on training and fine equipment; he wields a pair of mysterious iron swords and a chain hauberk.
