Cuchulain the hound of Culann- Leader of the Celts

Cuchulainn is most easily described as the Celtic Hercules.

He is built to the same proportions and build as the Fomorian leader Balor as he is the same class and indeed Balor's counterpart in Cythraul. Currently he is simply a lower poly rough at 2300 polys and I will return to flesh out the basic idea for him shown here to the tune of 10000 polys.

Cuchulainn was mostly written about as a small 16 year old boy who you would not be impressed by if you happened upon him and thus most warriors underestimated him. His legend began when he was a mere boy of 8 as after playing 'hurly' with teenagers he was making his way late to Culann's castle for a feast with the local lords who had invited him. In their haste or enjoyment of a fine meal they had forgotten about the young lad and not thought to mention to Culann that he should not let loose his bull sized guard dog to protect the castle. When Cuchulainn came upon the castle the huge hound attacked him and he grabbed the dog with one hand and shattered it's head against a nearby rock in one swift movement.


In this manner he earned his nickname of 'The hound of Culann' and began in earnest to forge his legend.
