Society

Living jars are a humble and secluded folk, living in close-knit settlements far away from most big cities.

The clay and flesh that composes their bodies is highly prized by magicians as material components, so they have to contend with would-be hunters and poachers seeking to make profit off their corpses; As such, their villages are usually perched up in remote spots that are extremely difficult to reach by foot, to dissuade such hunters from visiting their homes.
