[366 Days of Monsters] Day 32/366 - Ong-ong
🕑 Added 2020-02-01 20:15:48 +0000 UTCOng-ongs are short, furry humanoids with large, flat heads that live in the Wallingmiotta. Their skin is dense and coarse like tree bark. Once thought to be an offshoot of the forest gnomes that inhabit the wood, anthropologists later discovered that the ong-ongs actually have more in common with dwarves than the other humanoid races of Omeria. Ong-ongs may even be related to the griffon-riding dwarves of Khuzuk.
Forestfolk. A common name for ong-ongs is forestfolk. The dwarves seem to have a natural affinity with nature and tend towards the druidic arts. In fact, ong-ongs make up some of the most powerful druid circles in all Omeria.
Tree Conversion. When an ong-ong reaches a certain age, it stops moving altogether. Roots grow from its feet and branches start to sprout from its head and body. In time, the ong-ong becomes a tree. Still sentient (although slow)
Ong-ong Gatherings. Ong-ongs rarely live together. Even young ong-ongs have to fend for themselves, using their innate spellcasting abilities to defend themselves from an early age. However, ong-ongs come together twice a year—during the summer and winter solstices—to share news and stories. For many ong-ongs, it is when they meet their mates.
