On Happarans and Garns…
The Lore Mountains are home to two notable indigenous peoples, the Happarans in the East and the Garns in the West.
Happarans are short, stout people, with dark hair. They stand chest-high to a human and live in small towns built into the sides of the mountains or hills, or sometimes even in the caverns below. Happarans are known throughout the continent as excellent stone-masons and woodworkers, and are frequently called upon to build large, ornate structures for rulers of many nations. They’re also incredible weapon smiths, though they seem to frown on work of that type.
