Who would you say are the strongest humans in the realms? I would certainly list WulfGar as a candidate. Dude is capable of onepunching ogres and even the odd hill giant.

My guess would be Sir Loric Canephane of Cormyr.
Player character belonging to a friend. |
Some people are like a slinky... not good for much, but when you push them down the stairs, it makes you smile. |

Really? What's his story? Just a really big strong guys or was he magically augmented in some way? |

He was one of those rare lucky few who had an 18/100 strength in 2nd edition and converted over to 3rd edition with a big strength bonus... and has advanced to like 16th or 17th level with every 4th level bonus ability point added to his strength score and a +1 bonus from a manual of gainful exercise. So, like, a 28 strength.
As for his story, aside from the +1 magical bonus gained, he's just an exceptional example of human strength. |

| Much like the scrolls for best swordsman in the Realms, you need to ask Ed, as the answer he would have ten or more named from all across faerin and most likely we would not recognize any! |

There is no right or wrong answer here. The fact is, there are powerful characters of many of the various classes who have never actually been referenced anywhere in the Realmslore. As Ed has told us previously.
I'm going to second Red Walker's suggestion that interested scribes research Ed's words on the matter by looking through his replies here at Candlekeep.
As such, and because this topic has been dealt with numerous times, I'm sealing this scroll. |
