Homebrew Ettinborn Species Details

Ettin are an odd race with an odd gene. This gene makes it so that they have twice the amount of required organs and muscles, and a second head. The two heads share the same nervous system but not thoughts, which can often lead to them bickering like siblings. The excess of internal organs can make ettin appear bloated and taller. The two types of ettin differ mainly in legend, about how the first ettin came to be. Supposedly a man wished to become smarter. The wish was twisted to give him two heads. Horrified, he ran off to the wild, never to be seen again. This is supposedly the origin of the wild ettin. Psionic ettin boast larger heads and claim heritage from a psionic experiment gone wrong, which fused the experimenters with one another.
