Six-feet plus of rippling skin and bone, possibly weighing seven stone in his loincloth. This, along with the thermal undies visible ''under'' the obligatory loincloth, tends to spoil the effect of a rugged [[Barbarian heroes|barbarian hero]], as does the tendency to allow his sword to stick in the ceiling when attempting a Triple Orc-Flip (reference to Chapter Seven).
Indeed, his reliance on the [[Inne Juste 7 Dayes I wille make you a Barbearian Hero!|manual]], at inappropriate moments, also tends to dispel the illusion somewhat.

Fortunately, just as he begins to realise that the world of the barbarian hero is not the clean and simple place he had fondly imagined when the most exciting thing in his life involved stacking crates of parsnips, he arouses [[Conina]]'s protective instinct, which saves his life on numerous occasions. By the end of {{S}}, it is clear that quantum physics has obliged the couple with a private two-person universe.
