Minotaur

Legend

“Said to be the first mortal race, the Drakk- and Ljost-Alfar encountered in the D.A., when the World was still in its forming. They are the exact opposite of the ‘Alfar’; big, exceptional strong, rash and short lived.”

History

Seemingly the oldest of all mortal Races, they suddenly stomped into the light of the Alfar. As they came around before the 1st cataclysm mentioned in the Alfar annals, their birth and cradle are unknown -they just suddenly showed up and for centuries they lived peacefully alongside everyone else.

Scholars have been able to determine, that at some point after the World Reforming they gathered in large numbers at what is now known as Markeoy, with only one outside colony -at Ljostari. Its said that when it sank, the Minotaurs managed to enter the sinking ruins of the Ljost Alfar and grab sapplings from the Eternal Bush.

A few survivors is claimed to have reached the shores of Midgard with the holy remains which they have guarded ever since. We are though unaware of the exact locations.

Organization

Large stocky people who tend to shun other races and its a rare occasion if a non-Minotaur enters their settlements. In fact they are considered the tallest mortal race, favour studying, horticulture and chemestry. But also practice the art of melee from young, so they are extremely adapt fighters seldomly bested in duels -but it happens, just ask Boneman for a good story if you meet him.

They generally live in towns or strongholds built out of solid rock. Rarely they do construct from wood or similar thin or weak constructions. Most often theres only one entrance to their strongholds, and no backdoor as they can’t stand the thought of retreating or fleeing.
