I'm designing a Race that's average height is 7'4 and are hollow-boned and i'm not sure what their average weight would be when you take that into account, and I was wondering what y'all think.
Help would be greatly appreciated!
(Also, I'm surprised there is no forum for races.)

I'm guessing probably skinniest would be high 300s to about high 400s! Because the average 6'7 male is around 200 pounds. But, that is just my guess :D

@AmmyPajammy

This of it this way. Based on some research that I've done, the average weight of the tallest NBA players rarely breaks 250 pounds. But it's also worth noting that hollow bones that are most commonly found in birds and bats are actually denser than mammal bones, so you character might weigh more than a human at the same height. It also depends on if this race's body make up. Are they muscular? Heavyset? What is the purpose of the hollow bones and their height? All in all, I think a good starting weight would be around 250 pounds.
