Roleplaying Information.

Orlekto is in love with Princess Mirran and wants to see her become Queen of the Wyrmskull Throne. (If Mirran is dead, Orlekto aims to avenge her.) If the opportunity to eliminate Hekaton or Serissa presents itself, Orlekto seizes it. Until then, he conceals his treacherous nature.

Ideal: "Storm giants should rule the world. Weak leaders have let dragons and others steal what the gods gave to us!"

Bond: "I serve Princess Mirran and her alone."

Flaw: "For Mirran's love or my revenge, I'd betray my king and my honor."

Amphibious.

Orlekto can breathe air and water.

Spellcasting.

The giant casts one of the following spells, requiring no material spell components and using Charisma as the spellcasting ability (spell save DC 17):

At will: detect magic, levitate, light

1/day each: control weather (cast as 1 action), water breathing

Actions

Orlekto makes two greatsword attacks.

Lightning Strike (Recharge 5-6).

Orlekto hurls a magical lightning bolt at a point it can see within 500 feet of it. Each creature within 10 feet of that point must make a DC 17 Dexterity saving throw, taking 54 (12d8) lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
