Description
Hideous giants standing 18'-20' tall, and possessing a temper to match, athachs are perhaps the most easily identified among the various giant races. Their most noticeable malformity is the third arm projecting from the center of their chest. The extent of their organization is that they live in small families sheltered in caves; beating on one another when not otherwise occupied with hunting or beating something else. An athach's most common tactic in combat is to beat its opposition with tree trunks, three to be precise, as well as biting it. Their gnarled and tusk-like teeth are covered in a putrid and potent saliva that can cause a bitten creature to become utterly helpless.
All that Glitters. Athachs have an intense love of gems and jewelry. Such items are essentially the only things to which they claim as possessions. Everything else is common to the family. The closest thing to an athach economy would be when two come together and trade their "things". Offering a satisfactory gift of gems or jewelry to an athach can persuade them to not beat on you. This can be particularly useful to know since humans are considered a good enough meat to eat.
