Sky Titans
 This page is needs images. Help plz. |
The Sky Titans were an Ancient and Technologically Advanced Race that used to live in the Mountains of Mourn long ago before the age of man who would herd mammoths. They were driven to extinct after the Great Migration drove the Ogres Westward in hunger, with the few surviving leading to such selective breeding that it caused the surviving Giants were pygmy compared to their ancient sizes and considerably less intelligent and more prone to drink or travel Northward to join the intoxicating powers of chaos
It is not mentioned if they were apart of the Great Plan of the Old Ones or not, but given Ogres were made by the Old Ones, if the Sky Titans were meant to still be around it could be a major issue that they're not.
Overview
Long ago, while Nehekhara was still in her infancy, before the great Dwarven Empire fell, and before Grand Cathay was fully unified under the Dragon-Emperor, the Darklands and the Mountains of Mourn held a great nation of city-states and seminomadic farmers called the Sky-Titans. Towering over even the mountains themselves, the holds of the Ancient Giant Lands were grander in size than entire Dwarven Karaks and they were able to produce [[Gunpowder (Warhammer Fantasy)|blackpowder) far earlier than any other race recorded in the annuals of history. Entire flocks of mammoths were raised as cattle by their beneficent caretakers and life was good for centuries.
And then the Great Migration happened.
Driven from their homes due to a certain emperor deciding it was a good idea to crash a warpstorm meteorite into the planet, the Ogres, devastated by the sudden and drastic loss in population, began to move westward, driven by a desperate hunger that plagued them with no rest nor respite.
