Ettin
Ettin are a species of two headed Giantkin that share many characteristics with Ogres.
Each of an Ettin’s heads has its own mind, personality, and identity. This constant proximity and lack of privacy or individuality leads to contempt and constant arguments between heads.
Despite this, two heads give Ettins a distinct advantage, allowing for multitasking, especially in combat, or being alert while the other head is sleeping. And if both heads are united on a task they can become unstoppable.
Due to their constant biggering and foul attitude Ettin are usually solitary creatures, rarely interacting with others except to kill or mate. Though rare, some Ettin get along with themselves and can be found in civilised areas.
Ettin Sex and Gender is still a mystery, with Ettin’s being able to have both male and female heads and body parts. Some scholars have argued that Ettin are just predisposition to have characteristics of both sexes, like some humans do, while others have argued that Ettin biology allows them to be both sexes at once. Unfortunately research into Ettin is a dangerous pursuit.
Appearance:
Ettins are humanoid in appearance, with two heads protruding from between their shoulders. Their skin comes in tones of grey or tan colour and they usually have dark, long matted hair.
Both heads have tusks that protrude from their lower teeth and they are on the shorter spectrum of Giants, standing around 10 - 15 feet tall.
Maturity:
Ettin can live around 70 years, though they are usually killed before then.
Ettin mature slightly faster than humans do, reaching adulthood by the age of 15.
