Overview

Teratons are a rock people who were made by human mages in a long forgotten war. Their bodies are completely composed of stone, stalagmites, and other rock formations/substances. As such, they are naturally resistant to damage and many effects, but this also opens the way for many devastating weaknesses.

Despite being made of stone, Teratons have their own distinct personalities and wills, just like any other race. However, one thing most Teratons share in common in this regard is that they are rather defensive of one another, and have no war amongt themselves. Despite this, Teratons can still argue with each other and even fight, but rather simply all care for their own race as a whole.

Teratons are not carnivorous, instead eating fruits, vegetables, and related foods such as soups or breads. On the subject of their biology, Teratons are generally around 12 feet tall, with some Teratons being reported to reach over 20 feet in height. Being created through magic, they possess proxy souls, and were designed to reproduce through a form of budding.

Nearly all Teratons live in Teratonia on Earth, a land renowned for its placid and tranquil setting of high red rock mountains and spruce forests. The northwestern end of the country, however, is rife with volcanic activity. Due to the extensive odd nature of this area, it has been speculated that this region was made as it was by enchantment around the time of the Teratonians' creation.

Teratonian cities have the same basic layout and design as those of humans or similiar races, but they have very few buildings. Most of their spaces are merely sectioned off by low stone walls, with nearly every dwelling being essentially outdoors, almost as if every building had everything more than four feet off the ground cut off of it.

Racial Passive

Geological Dude (Racial Passive): Teratons are made of stone, making them quite resilient, but also having the weaknesses you'd probably expect from rocks.
Positives: +10 Strength. Immune to Poison. Knockback elements are less effective against Teratons by two levels. (1 or 2 becomes 0, 3 becomes 1, etc.) Gains the Tier 2 Universal Passive 'Tough Skin' for free. (+5% resistance to damage caused by Elemental Energy {Earth, Sky, Water, Fire}, as well as damage from Electricity.) Can take the Awakening element "Colossal" for 2 points instead of the normal 4.
Negatives: -10 Athletics. Cannot use the Enchantment skill, nor can they activate enchantments from Scrolls they recieve. Cannot swim (they sink to the bottom of what ever body of water they're stepping into). Cannot use any form of self-flight (such as the Levitation Passive or Tincture of Icarus). Cannot normally use energy weapons, but can use Spiritual/Mental Energy and energy of their own affinity if they have the Universal Passive "Sorcery", which only unlocks these and no other energy weapons for them. Teratons take 10 more damage per level of mastery from techniques with the Flood tech element.
