Well I did say there would be a reason why you might end up fighting the adorable dwarf elephants. Gegenees are a giant race from Greek myth, and its high time they appeared in classic D&D.

Gegenees are a race of 6 armed giants, with a grey pallor to otherwise pinkish skin, being around 15’ tall. They inhabit various warm, rocky islands, where they are the undoubted masters of their terrain. They farm goats and sheep, and spend much of their time fishing. They are territorial, and will attack human and demi-humans with the aim of either enslaving them or driving them off. They can attack with up to 4 weapons at a time, and favour spears and clubs, and they may also throw up to 2 rocks per round but to a limited range (100/150/200) for 3d6 damage. They frequently keep pets, either 2d8 dwarf elephants (60% chance) or 2d8 small rocs (40%).
