Ancient Norn cave painting Promos Alyssa | 4/1/2021 | 4 | Inset from the Creatures Official Strategies and Secrets guide written by Toby Simpson. I've never seen this image elsewhere, and I'm not sure if there's a color version available anywhere. |

I always thought the Shee were like 5-6 ft tall and the norns were a mere 3 ft tall, but the Shee would have to fit through their own doors after all...

It does raise questions! I always read the upraised hands as being indicative of using some kind of magic or psychic power, but the hand also does look like it could be holding a gadget of some sort, so you could make an argument either way, I think...

Oh that is interesting! Firstly, isn't this pretty much the only suggestion we had as to how tall Shee are compared to norns? Of course, it's just a cave painting, so no definitive proof, but it looks like the norn is actually about shoulder height, bigger than I envisioned.
And, is that ray technological or a hint Shee might have telekinetic abilities? They do have advanced technology but it's usually biological in nature, there's nothing to really suggest ray guns are a thing. Unless it's a teleporter device, which would make sense.

Sufficiently advanced technology is functionally indistinguishable from magic, particularly to a norn :p
|
|
|
So either the Shee have magic powers or do norns have overactive imaginations

It's always cool to see rare art. This one looks quite funny, too.
