Welcome to Curious Quill, an original content resource for d20 roleplaying.
The Quill has spent a lot of time describing the people and beasts of fantasy realms, in the land of Taluma but could be in any land. For the summer season we are going to look at some Expanded Rules options for 5e that for the Taluma setting, but can be used in any campaign.
Mortals:Gargants
The Quill already spent a season each on the ‘civilized’ people including: dwarves, elves, urchins (smalfolk) and orcs; along with humans. There are other mortal beings across the land. Mortals are considered to be sentient people who have a finite existence and are subject to death: they are not immortal.
After the Rivening when the cloud, fire, frost and stone giants were created, the Caelestine were able to further enhance a few of them who were able to accept the fifth element of aether which is the thunder and evolve into storm giants. Over time, those giants that were not granted an element devolved into what we know today as hill giants.
