After years of passionate effort, our world is so well developed, so detailed, so refined that any of the handbooks, maps, historical accounts, legends, descriptions of artifacts, creature reports, character biographies, short stories, novels, movies and original art which populate these forums can surely serve as resources or inspiration for your own fantasy endeavors, whatever they may be. And our world is endlessly evolving, so resources are frequently added and updated.
There are also years of sage advice and commentary on role-playing, gaming and online community development stored in these forums. If camaraderie is what you seek, we offer that too.

|  Horses for half-giants
 As Micheal could now buy one, is there a rule about horses for half-giants? I would like the speed increase, but for RP I dont really want to ride one of the ordinary horses. Any projection on getting a largers size horse installed?

| RE: Horses for half-giants
Half-giants have not been tested on horses yet, though they also have not been explicity restricted. To be honest, I do not know what will happen. However, the horse models we have are all we'll have. There won't be any new (larger) ones added for half-giant sized creatures/PCs. In reality, about the only appropriately-sized horse would be a Nightmare, and well...rideable nightmares just won't be in. They're too high-spirited.  | | | | |

logically, half giants totally need Oxen to ride; a little slower than horses! Of course, my orc wants a warg, and Bilkivi would rock on spiderback... heheh | | | | |

Even a Clydesdale would have trouble carrying a Half-Giant in full armour... they're BIG. It might just be a natural disadvantage to the Half-Giant subrace - no horsies. | | | | |
