Civilization and Culture
Naming Traditions
Goliaths typically have Greek or Roman first and last names.
Gender Ideals
Goliaths see each other as Vesuva's children first above all else. Typical Goliath women are as strong as the men, and are treated equally in all manners.
Courtship Ideals
When a goliath seeks another's affections or hand in marriage they will craft an object of masterwork quality. These objects are generally the goliath's magnum opus, and are not given lightly.
Relationship Ideals
Goliaths mate for life, giving their most prized creation to their lover. A goliath will only separate with its mate upon death and it is considered taboo to remarry.
Interspecies Relations and Assumptions
While many goliaths spend their whole lives in Rael, some venture into other kingdoms to make lives as blacksmiths or adventurers. They often find kinship among the Dwarves and large Feylings.
