Known Half-Ancients

All of these are written based on rumors and even if they are true most of these entities probably don't want to be encountered by adventurers. Just a reminder. Harutya: Most famous one. Travels between cities looking for odds and ends. Most cities banned her because she is half ancient. She camps outside cities and since folk is always interested in her she can manage to do some trade.

It's believed that he has been into machinery for the last few hundred years and dungeons before that. He leaves light-made artifacts in machinery dungeons.

Sometimes even before the family knows the child is sick. These children live 2-3 times their normal lifespan. Most of them organize with each other to heal and save people.
