[Kaylii]

The Members of Suma:

Dragonians
V'aah Shiir
Half Elves

[Kaylii]

Basic Description:
They are mainly a neutral race, and as a whole, prefer to stay out of wars until one side becomes too powerful and threatens to overturn the balance. There are the occasional oddballs, however, that prefer one side to the other.
They have a monarchy, that can be overthrown ONLY by a ruler that is backed by the people. Aka, a ruler comes into be with the support of the people, and the support continues through to their children. Once the people lose that respect, a new leader is found.

Average heights vary between 5'11 and 9'5 or so, most have scales that lightly cover the outer portions of them (such as back, backs of arms, backs of legs), most have wings, all have tails. Tail decorations may vary. Colors may vary to almost any color, but usually have a realistic base color (such as white, light peach, tans, bronzes, dark brown) Some have markings. Think walking dragons with human qualities.

Homeland: Keneshee

Gender: Male, Female, Asexual

Breeding: All three genders become sexually mature around 30 years of age. A male and female must copulate to breed, but one who is asexual can choose when they want to reproduce (they form an egg. Only one. Asexuals do not create any more than this). They can breed only once every 5 years.
An asexual may breed on its own, but it may choose to be with either a male or female dragonian. However it has its own sexual organs, so it cannot couple.

Lifespan:
Dragonians live slightly longer than humans, around 300 years of age.

Powers:
Dragonians do NOT have control over magic.

*Warriors: Those who are highly skilled in fighting with weapons. They can take hard hits with their armour as well.
*Ranger: A ranger is one who is experienced in longshot weapons, like bow and arrows. They have silent steps, able to hide in bushes without another noticing and shoot very accurately.

Basic Description:
Half Elves are a mix between elves and humans, thus they don't really belong with any of the other races. The elves and humans shun them both. So, they are independant on the Suma territory, working for the Dragonians and Vaah Shiirs.

Half Elves are roughly the size of humans, usually a tad taller. They wear leathers of brown and tan, and their skins are tan from always being outside in the sun. They are blacksmiths, skilled in the arts of creating weapons and fighting. They make excellent warriors with the strong will of man and the swiftness of an elf.

They live in a industrious city, full of blacksmith shops and stores that sell weapons many swords imaginable. The air isn't that healthy, but they manage.

They have the smallest of pointy ears of the elf family groups. Their ears usually only grow a maximum length of 3-4 inches.

Homeland: Equisse

Gender: Male and Female

Breeding: Their breeding is much like humans. They sexually mature at around 16 years of age, though it can be tricky with them. Opting to pair with a human and ridding their offspring of all elf traits is best. Pairing with another half elf often ends in the child becoming magically unstable from the dormant powers, and breeding with a full blooded elf is impossible.

Lifespan: They slightly live longer than humans. An average of 150 years.

Powers:
Half Elves have dormant powers, but they cannot use them consciously. They may heal faster than humans and resist more diseases than their more mortal half side, but it's something they unable to control.

*Blacksmiths: Sword makers and fine fighters. They aren't as strong as warriors, but they manage to fight well.

[Kaylii]

Basic Description:
These are mostly peaceloving characters, living away from others to live in harmony and equality. Like all felines, they are independant, spoiled, and clean freaks. They consider themselves a wise race, full knowledge and understanding of the world.

Vaah Shiirs are giant cat like people. They have the looks of a large feline, from tiger to black panthers. However they can also resemble more common housecats, such as tabbies, to even smaller wild cats such as lynx and bobcat. They're faces are still those of cats, yet with human characteristics. They are able to show emotion, feelings, etc etc. They may choose to not wear much clothing, for they already have fur.
All V'aah Shiir have natural colorations depending on their counterpart. A tiger isn't hot pink so try to make it that way.

They city they live in is large. They do have homes yes, but they mostly like to stay outside around camps of fires and dwell in trees for naps. They love the sun, which is why they are always outside.

Homeland: Inkarie

Gender: Male and Female

Breeding: V'aah Shiir sexually mature at around 25 years of age. They mate similar to that of mammals.

Lifespan: An average of 175 - 200 years

Powers:
ALL V'aah Shiir are able to take the form of their feline counterpart ie. a lion V'aah Shiir is able to take shape of a lion.
However if they are wearing clothes or jewelry, these items may rip apart or simply fall off them. They weren't meant to wear clothing and the clothes can't just disappear with their transformation, unlike what druids are capable of doing.

*Monk: Monks use their fists or staffs as a tool for fighting. They mainly don't fight, but are quite good at it when they feel threatened.
*Cleric: A cleric is one who is able to heal deadly wounds and those who are close to death. These are about to only creatures who truely cannot die. However, they can still feel the pain when hurt, and it takes a while to heal if it is something like a spear through the stomach. Try living with that for a few weeks. They are able to give up their immortality however if they choose to revive one who is already dead. This is only a one time deal, if they do that, their immortality is gone, and they would be able to get killed.
