(Rough) Taddeo the Little Giant

Lore
The pint-sized Taddeo flew through the air as he swung his battleaxe downward, splitting his monstrous foe in two like a log. He moved energetically, and all could see that he was a brave warrior. They no longer called him "dwarf." Instead, they paid respect to the gallant Taddeo by calling him "the Little Giant."
