Eons older than their smaller counterparts, elder titans stand 75 feet tall or more, weighing close to 400,000 pounds. Each one has a unique, not necessarily totally human, appearance. Because of their cerebral nature, elder titans are acutely withdrawn, taking up residence in the farthest corners of the multiverse, desolate places inhospitable to most others where they are unlikely to be disturbed. Each has taken on many characteristics of the very environment in which he dwells, allowing his body to alter over time as he becomes a very part of that place. Because of this, elder titans tend to customize their special abilities to adapt to their environment, although they are not considered to be a sub-type associated with that environment. Hidden away in their elemental lairs, elder titans spend the majority of their time either thoroughly settled into the depths of their own minds, or magically combing the planes in search of obscure knowledge. Elder titans are sometimes inaccurately perceived as less cognitive or even less intelligent than their more lively cousins, but the truth is that elder titans have simply moved beyond the joys of physical existence and revel now almost exclusively in the pleasures of the mind. They may be less physically aware of their immediate surroundings, but they perceive well enough, for they consider the multiverse to be their library, a place to garner knowledge for knowledge’s own sake. Though not secretive with his knowledge, an elder titan seldom welcomes disturbances to his contemplations. It is, in fact, difficult even to get the attention of one of these beings, so deep in thought is he. Even after he is brought out of his reverie, an elder titan is slow to react, both because he is loath to leave his thoughts half finished and because he is carefully analyzing this new data. Once riled, he is a formidable foe, acutely perceptive of his surroundings and enjoying an almost pre-cognitive understanding of battle tactics, and he throws himself into eliminating disturbances quickly and efficiently. Elder titans have devoted so much time to the pursuit of knowledge that they can speak and read any language(such is the power of the Polyglot feat they possess),though it is as likely as not that they will ignore such mundane intrusions as mere words for the sake of their ponderous reflecting. Every few millennia, an elder titan rouses himself to find another of his kind for companionship, weapons practice, or some other enjoyable activity. This contact almost always takes place on some desolate and feature-less plane where distractions are minimal. ### Combat Elder titans have not completely forsaken their connections with their smaller counterparts, and thus fight with massive warhammers and stout javelins, just as titans do. In combat, the tactics an elder titan uses depend largely on environment. In wide-open spaces, an elder titan uses his fly spell-like ability to get up into the air and hurl javelins and other spell like effects at enemies. In close quarters (relatively speaking), he will rain heavy blows down on his foes with his warhammer. An elder titan tends to use his spell-like abilities in ways that reflect his favored environment. Thus, an elder titan who has chosen to dwell deep beneath the surface of the ocean has used alter self to change into a water breather, while one whose lair is in the heart of a volcano utilizes protection from elements to resist the great heat. Likewise, one will favor fog cloud in combat while the other prefers produce flame. In any event, an elder titan enters true combat for the sole purpose of quickly and efficiently eradicating nuisances, eliminating persistent distractions to his studies. Whether an elder titan kills his foe or merely drives it away is inconsequential, so long as the result of the fight is a return to peace and quiet.
