Personality
"I have a lesson for every situation, drawn from observing nature."
Since Firbolg's tribe names refer to their homes, he made his tribe name Forrest and that is the name he gives outsiders.
Firbolg have no names, but he will answer to and adopt a name if someone wishes to call him something other than his tribe name. One such name he will answer to is Merildir (meril = rose, dir = young man) that was given to him by a passing wood elf due to his fondness for wild roses.
He is not quick to trust those who dwell outside his home. It was due to their disrespect to his home that cost him his tribe. His first home was destroyed when outsiders came to build their civilizations. They tore trees from the ground without planting seedlings in their place. They hunted animals for fun instead of food. Soon his tribe found themselves exposed and starving. When his people came to ask the outsiders to stop, before there would be no forest left to live in, the outsiders killed them fearing they were rampaging giants.
He grew up in the wilds, far from civilization and the comforts of town and technology. The wilds are in his blood. Even in places where he doesn’t know the specific features of the terrain, he knows the way of the wild.
