Jazuu

When the First Wish broke the Titans' runic reign and caused them to degenerate, two major peoples resulted from choices made. The dwarves are the more common (at least in Noefra) of the two; the giant kindred are the others. The name the learned use for the giant kindred is the jazuu, the Written People. While most people in the Federated Nations believe that the jazuu belong to multiple races, the truth is more complicated.

Regions and Cultures

Oelfra

The Oelfran continent is home to the vast majority of jazuu. They dominate the southern portion and have constructed major cities. As of 250 AC, nothing is known more about this content or its cultures; what is known comes from fragmentary records indicating that the continent is home to jazuu, dwarves, goblinoids, and a very few humans who migrated during the 3rd Age. The records speak of the seemingly-ageless Storm Emperor who rules from a floating palace above the clouds and cities housing peoples of gigantic proportions carved out of mountains.

Nocthian Caldera

On Noefra, there are two regions with significant Jazuu populations. The first is in the west on the Nocthian Caldera. Frost giants have been encountered as part of the Hungering Frost, so the Federated Nations believes that a significant populace of jazuu serves the master of that frigid host. Expeditions into the caldera in 211 and 212 AC discovered significant jazuu populations, as well as scattered true giants. The Night's Children also have no records of a Titanwall (see below) in that area, so how they're creating more (if they are) frost giants is unknown, but it is believed that Isskap created them in her icy kingdom.

Giant Spine Mountains

Main Article: Tuura Adam

The second (and more well-known) population is in the Giant Spine Mountains on the north-eastern border of the Sea of Grass. Here a nation that calls themselves the Tuura Adam (True People) inhabits the valleys and peaks of this harsh land. Friendly relationships have been maintained with this group, especially between this group and the rulers of Zhapai Karmap and Shinevog.

Racial Traits

Two main groups are present in Noefra--the Tuura Adam in the Giant Spine Mountains and the remnants of those that followed the Hungering Frost in the Nocthian Caldera.

Tuura Adam

The people of Tuura Adam live among giants and desire nothing more to undergo the titanwall transformation, becoming one of the large folk. To do this, they train the whole self and compete to be the best possible at their chosen skills. They follow the Code, a written document describing what it means to be perfect, obsessively.
