The Iothun: A New Look at Giants By: CaptainPenguin
Deep in the mountains, beyond where the trails end, one can find collossal stairways and long, cliffside roads, massive arched bridges and huge vaulted tunnels, spanning thousands of miles.

Ru-Men By: CaptainPenguin

They live in small 'nests' of 10-20 individuals which generally lie in the mountains or cliffs.

Mysian Lengths By: CaptainPenguin
All Agera work with a base-8 system (though of course, in GMing, for simplicity, I don't). Accordingly, the Mysian system of measuring is based on 8s. From dolon to dolmelphion, the system is fairly straightforward, but, traditionally, after dolmelphion, it becomes a touch more complicated. |
