 The Fomorians are an ancient race native to Ireland. They are often depicted as monstrous or deformed beings, associated with chaos, darkness, and the sea. The Fomorians are said to have come from the sea and to have been the original inhabitants of Ireland before being defeated and driven underground by the Tuatha Dé Danann.
-Resembling vagely humanoid beings, the Fomorians are ugly, twisted creatures with skin similar in color and texture to rock, often mistaken for trolls. They average between 2.5 and 3 meters in height and have been sworn enemies with the [[Fir Bolg]] ever since the two species ever met. Aside from their very different cultures and beliefs, Fomorians are known to be highly aggressive and cruel towards any other beings, and often even against their own kind.
+=== Appearance and Characteristics ===
+The Fomorians are often described as monstrous and deformed, their twisted and misshapen bodies evoking a sense of dread and unease. Resembling vaguely humanoid creatures, their skin bears a resemblance to rough rock, granting them a rugged and coarse appearance. Standing at towering heights ranging between 2.5 to 3 meters, they command a formidable presence.
-Fomorians are skilled at shaping stone and metal, but their looks mirror their tastes, so Fomorian structures are often crude, irregular and ugly.
+=== Culture and Beliefs ===
+The Fomorians hold a culture steeped in aggression and cruelty, their interactions marked by hostility and enmity. Their worldview is characterized by a deep-seated desire for dominance and power, which often leads to conflicts and clashes with other beings, including their own kind. This fierce and contentious nature has forged a lasting animosity between the Fomorians and the [[Fir Bolg]], intensifying the rivalries between these ancient races.
-Several caves throughout Ireland lead to Fomorian underground strongholds. They are kept closed to the public to prevent people encountering the Fomorians. Luckily, Fomorians show little interest in wandering outside of their underground homes.
+=== Artistry and Architecture ===
+Despite their crude and intimidating demeanor, the Fomorians possess a unique talent for working with stone and metal. Their craftsmanship, however, reflects their darker inclinations and aesthetics. Fomorian structures are often described as crude, irregular, and aesthetically unappealing, bearing a raw and unsettling quality. Their creations exhibit a twisted artistry that mirrors their own appearance and temperament.
+=== Underground Strongholds ===
+Throughout the landscapes of Ireland, hidden caves and labyrinthine passageways are believed to lead to the subterranean strongholds of the Fomorians. These dark and forbidding domains remain concealed from the public, serving as a protective barrier against unwitting encounters with these enigmatic beings. Fortunately, the Fomorians exhibit little inclination to venture beyond their underground abodes, keeping their presence contained within their secluded realms.
+=== Language ===
+The Fomorian language, known as "Drochsgáil" in their native tongue, reflects the essence of their crude and twisted nature. Unfamiliar to the ears of other species, the language elicits a sense of unease and discomfort. It incorporates a range of vocalizations, alternating between normal voice production and deep, guttural growls, reminiscent of the Fomorians' intimidating presence. Similar to certain languages that feature nasalized or breathy vowels, the Fomorian language exhibits intricate phonetic complexities. Pronunciation proves exceptionally challenging for non-Fomorian beings, as the language is designed to convey their unique worldview and communicate with precision within their own society.
