Rock Ahmegg

The Rock Ahmegg (Rocks) are a race of Ahmegg that live in the mountains or on cliff faces. Because of these harsher conditions they grow up to twice the size of the other races and have significantly longer claws for climbing rocks. They have more muscle mass due to a protein heavy diet of birds eggs. They eat eggs because there is little plant life in the mountains. They hunt the eggs from the nest and very often have to battle large birds. They use nets and lasso's to grab the eggs and spears, bows and slings to attack the birds. Their houses are usually made from the native stone and wood and they are typically good stonemasons.
