History
The first race known to have used gunpowder are the mysterious Sky-Titans, a race once known to occupy the Mountains of Mourn, with their most populated area being within the Ancient Giant Lands. By -2750 IC, the Great Migration kicked in caused by a warpstone meteorite crashing into the earth in an attempt by the Dragon Emperor to exterminate the Ogres...Only to end up creating their new God, the Great Maw. At this time, Ironblasters were used as pistols, and the Sky Titans lived in huge, well defended cities in the mountains supporting huge populations and technological marvels. Unfortunately for everyone, Ogres set forth to raze down every capital in order to secure themselves food and a new home. (According to some legends, the Sky Titans are the ones who even cursed Ogres to always be hungry no matter how much food they ate as poetic justice...Not that it helped as it just made them fight more fiercely)
