Bigger and Smaller Races

    by: Rokaido Author IconMail Icon
If the size ratio between the three races wasn’t enough—

For centuries, the three races in the Gulliverse learned to cope and live side by side despite their extreme size difference. Discovered just over a century ago, were two new races of humans that took the size ratio into a ridiculous realm. No longer were the Brobdingnagians the biggest of the big. No longer were the Lilliputians the smallest of the small.

The Prodigians lived on an unexplored continent across a vast sea. Their population was only in the thousands and far behind in technology. The Brobdingnagians who discovered these people made a concentrated effort to bring peace and assimilate the giants. In only a hundred years, the Prodigians adopted the cultures of the three original races. They took in the fashion, language, and laws of the little people. Fortunately, for the world, the Prodigians hold little aggression and are compassionate towards the little people. Yet, there are those that let their size get to their heads.

The Microputians lived under the noses of the three original races for centuries. Knowing their limitations in stature and seeing how the bigger people treated the Lilliputians, the Microputians opted for a life of subterfuge. They scavenged off the giant Lilliputians and avoided anyone bigger. Their discovery devastated them, for they no longer could scavenge and live a free life within the walls of the giants. Over a hundred years after their discovery, the Microputians accepted their new lot in life as the smallest of the small.
