Krig
Krigs are spider-humanoids that originate from the Weysevain Maze and, by extension, the town of Orbea in Central Omeria. Intelligent and clever, thanks mostly to their connection to their diety-progenitor Matriarch and all other krig, they quickly positioned themselves as assets throughout most of the continent. Their overall numbers are much lower than the other major humanoid races of Omeria, and it’s rare to find one more than 1,000 miles from the Maze at Orbea.

Red-Striped Thornfoot
Having emerged from the Obsidian Plain as dangerous, fire-breathing predators, the nomads of southern Omeria learned to train these massive creatures for us as beasts of burden. Most are muzzled while they are working to avoid their nasty fire breath.
