Homebrew Anakim Species Details

 

Anakim similarly to goliath they evolved from giants but instead of sticking to the snowy peaks they spread far and wide some gaining success in kingdoms, some gaining success in spreading they're religion and some who would rather keep to them selves but one thing in common among them all is over time they're innate ability for magic and spell casting is what helped them gain power in society without getting oppressed and crushed that innate magic is used to hide they're true face behind a second face that is used to not draw as much attention but to those that have seen an anakims true face has been mesmerized describing it as seeing a blinding light of beauty in a dark abyss. As calm as they may be they have an innate instinct for violence 

 

Anakim see females and males as equal in all things, and they find societies with roles divided by gender to be puzzling or worthy of mockery. To a goliath, the person who is best at a job should be the one tasked with doing it
