 +During the Hjaltland adventure, the party rescued a family of [[creatures:badgers|badgers]] that goblins were attacking. While helping the badgers, Caleb used his [[campaigns:latitude_history:lore:wand-of-wonder|Wand of Wonder]], and it cast a permanent Enlarge effect on one badger. That enlarged badger became [[campaigns:latitude_history:characters:bitey-boy-brock|Bitey Boy Brock]], and this is how Brock met Skrappe Frappe.
