Othea

Othea (known as Deronain in Auld Dwarvish and Sonnhild in ancient Thorass) was a goddess who married Annam All-Father and bore his children, who would become the origin of the giant race. She would later claim the cold vast plains with her son Lanaxis.

Othea was the wife of Annam All-Father. Her sons were Lanaxis, Arno and Julian, Masud, Nicias, Obadai, Ottar, Ruk, Vilmos, and Dunmore; the last, while initially believed Annam's son, was later thought to be the product of Othea's affair with the sea god Ulutiu. She also gave birth to at least five unnamed sons from affairs outside her marriage to Annam that resulted in the ogre races and the four giant-kin races. Ray Winninger (September 1995). Giantcraft.

==Background==
Othea was unfaithful to Annam, her husband. Circa , she had an affair with Vaprak, resulting in the ogre race, and then c. she had an affair with Ulutiu, shortly before the end of the giant war against the dragons, resulting in four sons, (one of them Dunmore): firbolg, fomorian, verbeeg, and voadkyn. Annam slew Ulutiu and hurled him into the Cold Sea. Othea was so upset by this that she refused to give Annam another child, but Annam tricked her to get her pregnant. They reached a compromise where Annam agreed to leave Abeir-Toril until the child called for him; in return Othea would not terminate the pregnancy.
Othea was poisoned by her son, Lanaxis, when she refused to let him save his citadel of Voninheim. Before she died, she cursed him, causing him to flee to Arborea. Her unborn son Hartkiller managed to survive.
