Aldrans dead Uncle Borin Frostbeard

Variation of the typical Dungeons & Dragons 5E NPC template from the Dungeon Master Guide (DMG) further adapted from Rodney Thompson's Lords of Chaos Campaign Session Prep notes found at: https://www.enworld.org/threads/by-popular-request-rodney-thompsons-session-prep-examples.662847/page-2

Uncle Borin Frostbeard

Borin, Aldran's deceased uncle, was a respected chieftain of the Frost Barbarian clan. Though wise, he carried a thirst for battle that served his clan well. His spirit now offers guidance to Aldran.

Name: Borin Frostbeard
Alignment: Lawful Neutral (in life), Spirit (now)
Appearance: A towering figure with a thick, frost-rimed beard and piercing blue eyes. Wears furs and the scars of many battles. Now appears as a translucent, spectral figure.
Voice/Mannerisms: Speaks with a booming, authoritative voice, softened by affection for Aldran. Often gestures with a spectral hand, as if holding an axe. A hint of bloodlust lingers in his tone when recalling battles.
Ideal: Clan and Honor
Flaw: Prone to bloodlust in battle, sometimes clouding his judgment.
Bond: Aldran and the Frost Barbarian clan.

Ability scores and combat statistics are best left on the NPC's main page and not included in Session or Session Prep for ease of reading.
