Population Locations: Bladesong City, Domeshell Village
Outpost Locations: Teresj, Kanetsu
A tortoise-like race that dwells on Dynastayria. These respectful reptiles want nothing more than to enjoy life and work very hard on mastering a weapon of their choice. They also willingly teach anyone willing to put in the work and discipline to master a weapon as well. They provide much information and wisdom, happy to teach anyone.
Population Locations: Stormshell Fortress
The largest of the Battoise but a complete enigma. The Paragos Battoise are skilled assassins that use deception more than they do stealth. They paint their shells and bodies to blend in with Standard Battoise and use a variety of tools to take out their targets. While they do have their own village in the Dynastayria Tombs, they primarily treat Stormshell Fortress as their headquarters while they have various homes throughout the Tombs.
Ancestors to the Battoise and are a stark contrast to their descendents. While Battoise are known for their battle prowess, Shellstompers were known extensively for their storytelling. Any story that had been told in ancient times was either created by a Shellstomper or at least told by one. They told all types of stories, heroic tales, scary stories, mythologies, anything. The Shellstompers did eventually take up weapon fighting due to some being inspired by heroic tales to make the stories a reality. While the Battoise are better known for their fighting capabilities, they still tell stories and have held onto Shellstomper story tomes in their vast archives.
