Ghe'tani
Stocky, short, and powerful. The shortest of the Kla'tani races, but not the weakest by far. The strength of these people is only matched by their crafting expertise in both armor, weapons, and brilliant citadels of defense. In absence of this, their jovial and easy going nature is revered the world over.
