Gnome tinkering is entirely a result of their ’’swarm syncrenicity’Giants on the other hand think at a much slower pace than other races, they spend longer sleeping (an extra hour for every foot above 10 - ie a Frost giant sleeps 18 hours per day) and tend to move ponderously (though not slowly). Giants thus dont see the point of all the hubbub and debate that small races do, instead they’ll take time to ponder, make a decision and then just do it, then once done they settle down and rest again.Orcs imc arent evil but they do have a culture that believes that the first Orc ripped his way out of his mothers belly and then turned to rape his sister. She however beat him and threw his body off the sacred mountain where he was forced to wander in the wilderness. Orcs thus see life as a violent struggle where every individual must take what they desire and even mothers are ready to be slain by their own children.Then there is my take on a Gnolls Courtship poetry (they are suprisingly romantic)“My bitzh your scent is like fresh killed meatthat is hung up upon a tree.many are those who fight with me for your attention,but with bare teeth I will tear at their throats and throw them down before you,I will offer you their liver and together we will eat the contents of their stomachs!”</blockquote>
