# Korgal
_Stone Giant Lieutenant | [[Kayalithica]] | [[Deadstone Cleft]]_
## Summary
[[Kayalithica]]'s brutal raid leader. Leads devastating attacks against settlements throughout the [[Sword Mountains]]. Confronted the heroes at [[Phandalin]], demanding the town's evacuation. Treats smallfolk with contemptuous disdain.

## At a Glance
Massive stone giant with battle-scarred features. Crude stone armor. Greatclub etched with trophies from destroyed settlements—a notch for each village, a carved symbol for each "worthy" kill.
Loyal because [[Kayalithica]] elevated him. Under [[Kragsten]], he was nobody—too brutal, too simple, too eager for violence. She saw his savagery as virtue. Now he's her hammer.
Enjoys the raids in ways that unsettle even other Stone Giants. The interrogations, the terror, the moment a settlement realizes no one is coming to help. Not sadistic exactly—just... satisfied. Like he's finally doing what he was made for.
## Personality
Brutal simplicity. Points him at something, he breaks it. Genuinely believes in [[Kayalithica]]'s vision because belief is easier than thinking. Not stupid—cunning in battle, reads terrain well—but not a schemer. If [[Kayalithica]] falls, he dies fighting or flees. No defection arc. No redemption. Just violence until something stops him.
