Ecology
Manggus is descended from the ancient ordning, occupying mountain holds, deep glaciers, or sky-realms above the clouds. It is most often found in forest regions. It is large-sized, which shapes how it hunts, hides, or fights.
Behaviour
Manggus is proud, rank-conscious, and slow to anger — but devastating when roused. Its Chaotic Evil alignment shapes how it engages with the world — predictable in tendency, even when unpredictable in detail. It is intelligent enough to plan, scheme, or remember.
Origin
Manggus is introduced in Kobold Press's Tome of Beasts 2 (2020). Giant lineages trace to the ordning, the ancient hierarchy that placed each giant kind in cosmic rank below the gods. Within a campaign, its existence anchors a region with the kind of weight only an old, named species carries.
