This is an old revision of the document!
- Evolved from prey species originally predatated upon by Vaigarin. Evolved to identify non-ganja due to the vaigarin hunting tactics.
- Evolutionary cold war between the Vaigarin and the Ganja results in two sapient species
- Effectively domesticated themselves to the Vaigarin, while also domesticating the Vaigarin to them for mutually beneficial growth for both groups.
- Society largely centered around craftsmanship and stone working. Live underground primarily, though some do live on the surface.
- Generally pale, not very physically strong.
- Some aspects of prey mentality remain - gathering in large groups for protection. Cities primarily grow 'down and out' as opposed to 'up and out'. Results in large 'city' caverns housing millions.
- Built up political and religious views of the Vaigarin due to the race's longevity and power compared to a Ganja's.
- City States tend to take influence from the Vaigarin Family they most closely tied to.
Tumnisians Name
Elevator pitch of the (SPECIES). Two easily-readable paragraphs, tops. Concise is fine.
The goals of a species article are to make it easy for players to understand what your species is, how they fit into the roleplay, and how to make a member of the species if they so desire. To be successful, your article will need to strike a balance between being short enough to be easy to read, while having enough detail to allow someone making a character to have all the information they need.
If you can find a way to re-phrase something long into a single sentence without losing important details, you probably should. Clarity is key. :)
