Homebrew Estribaal Species Details

"They walk in the shadow of their supposed gods; gargantuan creatures with a singular, glowing eye as bright as the sun itself. It' gaze is haunting, and theirs also matches it. They care not for the coldest storms, walking through it as if it were a gentle breeze." - Cave Paintings (Translated)

 

Nobody truly knows how long the Estribaal  have been around. They are named after the behemoth cyclopean creatures they walk alongside and appear in the image of - The Baal. While many follow these beings, the ones who left behind for whatever reason tend to follow their own paths, and do not return to their Baal parent even if they come across it again. One thing for certain is that they watch, they wander, and they endure. Perhaps their mobile way of life inspires more people to live in a similar way.
