The oldest sapient species, the alatharya have dramatically declined after their millennia of empire and domination. In the wake of challenging the Overgods, the First Race was cast down in its hubris by the heavens. The ensuing cataclysm, known as the Sundering, radically changed the face of the land and destroyed the legendary power of the alatharya. Afterward, the shattered race was stripped of their peerless mental capabilities and capacity to use magic. However, their physical strength and durability remained, left as a reminder of what they had lost.
Appearance
The alatharya are enormous humanoid mammals with silvery skin and white hair, averaging nine feet tall with a broad, muscular frame. This girth gives them at least some resistance to physical blows, but comes at the price of grace, leaving most alatharya slow and lumbering compared to smaller, quicker species. Their eyesight is extraordinarily keen, allowing them to see farther than most others.
