The flaming chain is magical and evil. When you strip him you find his boots, belt and a ring are magical. His muscles shrink a bit when you take the belt off.

As most if not all of you have seen fire giants, at least at a distance, you now get the impression he is very young, possibly an adolescent.
The boots and ring will be put aside, I can identify them when we get a moment. The chain will be dumped overboard once we get out to sea.

What was the giant’s name when he was introduced? I’d like to bardic knowledge that to see if I recognize it.

You are sure this giant has not earned such a title.

As summoned creatures would.

Using the “enlighten” documentary bard ability, bardic knowledge check is 17+10=27. Does Uther recognize the name?

I can also do know(planes) or know(nobility) if either of those are more appropriate.

The name doesn’t mean anything to you, but the ring has a crest. The Hulgove clan, who are among those that occupied Mount Oneash. They are fire giant nobility.

Uther clenches his jaw in anger. “I recognize this crest. This one’s kin were among those giants that invaded my home to torture and murder thousands of my clansmen, including members of my family. I will have vengeance.”

Seems he got what he deserved then. 

Dylan spends time contemplating the whetstone.  Hoping, maybe for some divine inspiration.
