Even fewer now, when you think about it. They have been protected by the gods of good, but that changed after Tahky stole the world. I wonder if she would have got any revenge on her 'Disobedient' children? I have always seen the Half-Irda, as powerful sorcerers, but without training, would not have been able to control these innate magical powers. I remember having a game a while ago, and my half-irda character burned an entire village to the ground, because he could not control his own power. Anyway, just some thoughts,

That'd b a great char :P What about an Irda who became an Ogre-Titan? Or, worse, what if the Nzunta met Dauroth? Imagine a thoroughly evil Nzunta army, skilled in spellcasting and shapechanging already, becoming Ogre-Titans? They'd be a very dangerous enemy. One of my questions is....what happens to Ogre-Titans after the first generation? Do they stabilize? Or do Ogre-Titan children still need the elixer every month? It would be a great storyline, if it was learned that they became a stable race in the next generation (at least for a few hundred years).....it could be an epic quest to find a way to counteract the potion, before the current generation of Ogre Titans starts having children..

Perhaps the Thanoi and the Yeti too...it's never really been explained where those two "races" come from. They could be of Ogre stalk.

Even fewer now, when you think about it. They have been protected by the gods of good, but that changed after Tahky stole the world.
