Editing Fate of Duskengrim (section)

===The Stoneborn===

The stoneborn are giants carved from stone, with runes on their skin giving them life. They were originally created as servants for an ancient empire, but rebelled and gained their independence. Their masters had tried using them in war, but creating beings who were, for the most part, gentle giants who dislike violence. Though no human knows the secret of making them, they retain this secret and this is how they "reproduce"--carve a new stoneborn from the rock, bringing them to life by carving the proper runes onto their skin. Although physically mature, when first created, they have the same pscyhological maturity as infants and must be nurtured into adulthood. Fortunately, their gentle natures keep most of these super-strong infants from being a danger to others. Though it seems like, being made of stone, the stoneborn should be largely invulnerable, this is not the case. Damaging the runes carved on their skin harms them and doing enough damage to the runes can kill them. That said, given time to heal, the runes regenerate on their own.
