Yelfezzer the Shrive

Yelfezzer the Shrive is one of the largest of all Titans in Poorthwart, and is arguably the most famous Titan of all. He is feared equally by individuals from all areas of Poorthwart, including antagonistic areas such as Carnival Weep.

Description
Yelfezzer is monumental in size, standing at nearly double the size of an average large Titan. He has a fat spider's body with six hair legs, and a long ostrich-like neck culminating in an oversized parrot-like head.

History
Like all Titans, Yelfezzer the Shrive dates to the Earliest Days. He is one of the Titans who left Titan Space 1 after being locked out accidentally. In Titan Space 2, he personally led the charge out of the Tall Things to slaughter the Unknown Armies.

He was one of the main participants in the Battle of Weirdly Waves, which ended Middle Days in Poorthwart.

As of the events of Poorthwart: The Cataclysm, he has been frozen motionless for centuries in Titan Space 2. It is presumed he comes to life, along with other Titans, following the events of the Cataclysm, but this is not confirmed.

Children's Tale
Yelfezzer is one of the primary 'boogey men' of the children of Poorthwart, and is the source of a popular myth among children. It is said that a child who does not clean the chimney ash well (which involves removing it quickly and dousing it with saintly ales), may be identified by their parents as naughty. The parents would bind hardtack to the bottom of the child's shoes, which would begin to break up as the child walked, leaving a trail of crumbs. This would attract Yelfezzer, who would then wait outside the child's house until the next 'greasy and dark' night, at which point he would rip open the house and devour all siblings of the child in question. He will then wait while the child's parents ask if he/she has learned his/her lesson. If the child says no, Yelfezzer will crush the parents to death and walk away, but if the child says yes, the parents will give the child presents and sweets.
