Introducing Diggory - nicknamed "the Strongman".
Diggory is an interesting design challenge. The original design was given to me a little chunkier than I anticipated. So I asked my designer to make him a bit skinnier.
I decided that I like the chunkier version more. Something about the original version adds character depth that I think would be worth exploring. With Diggory being a little bit chunky, I decided to think less about his weight in turns of him being "fat" and more that its a sign of strength.
If you've ever seen competitive lifters - they're not typically thin by any metric. They're bulkier and a lot stronger than the average person. I think that lends some depth to the idea of being labelled a "Brute", being stronger than the normal trolls. All this could lead into an interesting story about Diggory having insecurity about his weight and being nicknamed the Brute by the other Trolls.
What do you think? Which version do you like? Let me know.
