|Thought by many to be only an urban legend, the Xiphani are real but only rarely seen. The appearance of a Xiphani in a settlement is a great cause for alarm, for everyone know that where a mothman goes horrific disaster is always only a few steps behind. The truth is that the Xiphani have a limited ability to see the future and appear on the dawn of catastrophe in an attempt to spread a warning, but are instead blamed for it due to their inability to communicate in any way other than pantomime and projecting emotions. | | |Thought by many to be only an urban legend, the Xiphani are real but only rarely seen.

- | | | | + | |The Hemani were created not by the Ravelcrux but by more artificial means in the Second Age and imprisoned in volcanoes around the world by their sorcerer-god masters to harness their exquisite smithing skills. It is for this reason that most remaining Hemani have cultivated an intense, personal hatred of all deities and would-be deities. Only the Hemani men are wise, skilled and immortal; Hemani women are much smaller and shorter-lived than the men (averaging a lifespan of twenty years) and possess the mental acuity of cattle. Only one Hemani child in a thousand is born male, and every female is near-identical in every observable and genetic sense. And so the volcanic prisons of their kind are generally structured around a single chained man and his harem of interchangeable daughter-wives. |
