Mapinguan
"Our forces arrayed in a ambush, meticuously hiding in the bushes to prepare for the Mapinguan. Alas, it seems they'd been waiting for us. No ssoner had we finally gotten silent than everyone died. It was appaling. I'm pretty sure they ate Druv. I remember thinking I should have run away rather than try this whole slave soldier thing, but then I realized everyone was dead so I guess it worked out. Still don't know why they left me alive." - Amar Rhatimoon, ex-Mamalk
Mapinguan are smaller (compared to their fellows) giants possessing only one eye, similar to the cyclops. They have brownish skin and are a lot more hairy than other species of giants. The Mapinguan are a secretive but ferocious race that live in the jungles of Ærellion, making large use of war paint. The most popular design is a mouth on their belly, which has led to a myth among the nearby humans that these creatures actually possess a belly-mouth in times past, though some still believe this to be true. Mapinguan are relatively primitive, preferring to use wooden clubs for the most part. Mapinguans usually dress in only a loincloth or skirt made from animal skins, so they must rely on natural toughness in a fight, for the most part. Nonetheless, their native advantage in their lands as well as their ability to move almost silently through the dense jungle there makes them a danger to those who stray into their territory.
