Saritor, are you referring to the Trevor who fences down here in Dragonspine? If so... well... Only if they sit.

No, I meant Baron Trevor from al-Barran, but your Trevor would make a good third person to inflict on you.

Damn, well. All I know is if I ever fight Blackstone, I will have to bring a step ladder, for fear of cup shotting him constantly. Its hard enough fighting Omar and Nick given how low I stand. And Thorbrand, well... I'll tell ya if I ever hit the man.
Oh and Johno, heres another for ya,
Omar is 6'2" and I believe down to 265 now.

According to the Military Processing Center, last month my stats were:
5'11"
194#
30yo
I'm 6'1" with my boots on, and my weight will change some after I go through boot camp this winter (the gym scale already has me down to 191#). I hold no rank or title, I fight heavy S/S when I actually have time to fight (its been a few months, should be getting back to it soon).
