An interactive guide to their origins, locations, and status.
The harsh cliffs and mountain garrisons are a perfect match for rare goliath enclaves, especially those maintaining ancient storm rites or oaths.
Exiled goliaths from old orders may have fled to this icy tundra. While culturally bleak, it is mythically resonant for their kind.
More spiritual tribes might be partially phased into the Ethereal Plane or lost in echo-realms, fitting their "dreaming of thunder" nature.
The grave gardens and sacred valleys here would allow firbolg to easily blend with the local druidic and mourning cultures.
For firbolg with a more mystical or fey-descended nature, the dream-libraries or prophecy cloisters of these regions are a perfect fit.
Some could be considered refugees from the Feywild, having fled into Nevos during an ancient cosmic breach, a fact now lost to most local lore.
While Nevos' cosmology is centered on stars and seasons, it references the Fey, Shadows, and Hells. An "Outlands-style" city beyond the known world implies Nevos touches the multiverse, supporting giant-kin roots in realms like the Shadowfell, Feywild, and Ethereal Plane.
Giant-kin are rare, marginalized, and unwelcome. Hunted by elves and dwarves, they face hostility in places like Aelorthal and dwarven strongholds. In modern Nevos, they are often seen as "myth-kin" or cursed relics of a bygone age.
