Description

Males and females are typically between 5'9" and 6'2" with slim athletic builds. They have golden skin tones and copper colored hair normally worn shoulder length for males and down to the middle of their backs for women. The men have no facial hair being incapable of growing any. Eye color tends to be mostly browns with the range being from amber to dark brown. Rare exceptions are green, violet and red.

Men wear sandals with exceptional treads that lace up to mid-calf. Women wear similar sandals but they normally lace up higher. Men will typically wear a brief loincloth, wrist bands and a belt with pouches. Women will wear the same but also with metal jewelry and a brief top that normally leaves the arms and midriff bare.

Physiology

They have the basic humanoid appearance with and as with most intelligent humanoid species they have a very complex system with specialized organs, and unique hormones, chemicals and enzymes. They are a very hardy species with very few ever suffering from various forms of illness and for the most part they tend to be exceptionally healthy. This may be due to their mostly vegetarian diet or the large amount of exercise they get on a daily basis.

Religion

They believe in a pantheon of gods (78 listed in their records) who created the universe, their world and the Egerians as well. This pantheon is broken up almost equally into males and females (38 of each), each with their own area of control. Based on the data available it is very similar to many pantheons described in ancient texts on Earth. Most of them follow or believe in a single specific god or a small group of gods over all the others with a small fraction of the population, about 1/4 observing a large majority of the beings represented in their pantheon.

• Pra - Male god of the sun, co-ruler of the gods, mate to Khari.
• Khari - Female goddess of the moon, co-ruler of the gods, mate to Pra.
• Agner - Male god of the earth, brother of Kahri, mate to Savee.
• Savee - Female goddess of water, sister to Pra, mate to Agner.
• Tanul - Male god of violent storms, mate to Palii.
• Palii - Female goddess of calm winds, mate to Tanul.
• Nudra - Male god of war and conflict, mate to Dasu.
• Dasu - Female goddess of death, mate to Nudru.

Mythology

They have literally thousands of stories, with almost every single member of their pantheon of gods having their own library of myths, tales and stories even though the majority of these include other members of the pantheon. In the capitol there is a massive library where all of the original, ancient texts are stored and preserved. Built thousands of years before the numerous chambers used to store these scrolls are over 3,333 feet beneath the planets surface carved from solid stone.

Society

Their entire society revolves around their beliefs in the various different gods, many of whom are considered to be the patriarchs of various different family groups. The importance of these different gods is reflected in the position and importance of the families associated with them.

• The offspring of Pra and Khari are called Prahri and typically hold high office, positions of control, command and importance.
• The offspring of Agner and Savee are called Agnvee and
• The offspring of Tanul and Palii are called Tanlii and
• The offspring of Nudru and Dasu are called Nudasu and are typically soldiers, bodyguards and other forms of protectors and fighters.
