The Story of The Mountain Ettins

The Mountain Ettins once worked for the Shee over a millenia ago, maintaining their mountain research labs. To keep the Ettins warm, the Shee decided to tweak their genes to encourage a woolly coat to grow so that the cold weather on the mountains wouldn't freeze them to death. Since the Albian year 550, the Mountain Ettins have been left to do their own thing and developed some complex mating behaviours, not unlike mountain sheep, with the males challenging other males before mating. A month ago a herd of Mountain Ettins sensed that everything was going to suddenly change and came down the mountains into an Albian settlement. Without hesitating, the herd left Albia on a mission to colonise it's moon. A day later the remenants of a BorgNorn vessel rained down over their mountain range devestating the area. Narrowily avoiding destruction, the Mountain Ettins now live with the other settlers on Albia's Moon. Their amazing 'sixth sense' ability to perceive hidden dangers and avoid them, has allowed them to avoid assimilation by the BorgNorns.
