Thor's son, this god transcends the normal definition of strength in the AD&D sense, in that his was supposed to be almost limitless.

He can bend anything he can grip, put his fist through anything, lift nearly anything (judge's opinion), even things that are supposed to be unliftable like his father's hammer. Any material object thrown at him, he can catch and throw back at the caster (hitting 90% of the time), and with his +3 hammer he does 8-80 points of damage per strike.

This god is so tough and hardy that blunt weapons of any type cannot harm him.

Quintus Myron Pilaster, a fervent High Priest of Magni, was the head of the Church of Divine Greatness. Retired from his adventuring days, Quintus established the church in a small town.

The church had a fortress-like stone wall, moat and even a network of underground catacombs. With five patrols of organised local militia as well as novices and acolytes, the church was built to withstand attacks from enemies made from Quintus' many years of adventuring. The enterprising Quintus also collected a monthly fee from the locals for using the church as a sanctuary from possible attacks by brigands.
