====== Introduction ======
The //Oghmir// clade is a [[Jotun]] or //Stone Folk// subgroup. The thread that ties together the races bound into this clade is a link to [[Gods#Oghma|Oghma]], a deity commonly known as the //goddess of stone and metals// and acting as the sometimes-literal mother of the clade in [[Huergar|Huérgar]] origin stories and mythology.

The //Oghmir// are known to live noticeably longer than //Humans// and other short-lived clades, but still fall short of the longevity associated with the [[Alvarin]].

====== Origin ======
Though only a page of what appears to be a much greater [[Sheevra|Sheevran]] work on the //Huérgar// survived [[The Irruption]], it makes remarkable claims about and attempts to explain in some limited detail the founding of the //Oghmir// clade through interactions with the //Huérgar// themselves:
  "Although a few Húergar scholars hold the great Motsoghmir, son of Oghma, as the sole creator of the Oghmir
  clade, the majority consort to the theory of a shared human ancestry: It is said that by the word of Oghma,
  Motsoghmir's shī (the word for soul, which in this case also seems to be some kind of holy breath),
  transformed a cave-dwelling, primitive human tribe into the first Oghmir damtum°.
  
  Of course, this damtum also came complete with the first Ersu and Eristu, king and queen, and from this līpu
  the entire Oghmir clade sprang forth. This is known as the Māsh-Êru, meaning the first awakening, or the
  becoming. As usual I questioned the rather unintelligible story, fishing for details on the shī, Motsoghmir,
  and the underlying reason for this remarkable event - and as usual my questions were met with nonsensical
  excerpts from songs and dusty old tomes°°.
  
  On a side note, it is at least satisfying to be able to freely catechize these matters without fear of
  infringing on any doctrines or breaking any laws. It seems very few purely intellectual or theological
  matters are considered ikkubu in the Húergar society, unless they have to do with Dāmu, such as the Suluhhu
  or Surpu rituals, or the mysteries of Āsipūtu. Regarding practical matters though, needless to say I have
  never encountered a culture so dispositioned to secrecy."
