Description:Gwirath are large, furry giants, one of the largest races on Aurealis. They resemble a cross between a bear and a large yuannorian, with twin rows of sharp teeth and massive arms and legs. They are incredibly strong, but very slow, and thus are uncomfortable around the smaller, quicker races. They find kinship with the L'Zyarn race, and have an intense hatred of the Ale'un and the Prrmyr based on their attempts to dictate how all races will associate with nature, and with the Makkarians, whom the Gwirath feel are arrogant and think themselves superior, even though physically smaller.
