Eldr (Fire Goliaths)

The Eldr (also known as Fire Goliaths) hail from the volcanoes to the west of the Heimurrin Mountain Range and the Boiling Lake. They are lither and quicker than their other Goliath cousins. They are also excellent smiths, each Eldr being born with the innate ability to smith. Fire goliaths are the children of humans and the passionate, conquering fire giants. They are most often found in regions under fire giant control, where the humanoid races toil in servitute of their giant rulers. Fire goliaths are regarded as outcasts by both peoples, however, and most often go their own way in the world.

Fierce existences                                                                                                                                                           Fire goliaths are naturally combative, driven by the fires of their bloodline. They are impossible to confuse with humans or standard goliaths, with flame-red hair, red and dark-hued skin, and thicks clusters of freckles that speckle their skin like sparks from coal. They speak in deep, crackling tones.

Talented fighters                                                                                                                                                        Fire goliaths carry the two main talents of their giant forebears: an affinity for flame, and a love of combat. Most fire goliaths hone both abilities to a searing point, making them much-beloved by mercenary companies and aspiring warlords. Fire goliaths, who tend more toward structure than chaos, are often happy to go along with such requests.
