The Inu

The Inu
Born in the couldron of battle, the tribal Inu are a fierce, loose confederation of tribal beastmen.

The second most numerous race on Iskandarr, they are the only who have turned to worshiping the Vengeful Sun in almost their entirety. After years of toil and suffering in the high mountains, the dawn brought them bounty of animals and fresh water from melting ice. In turn, they began to believe that the Sun was urging them to grow and conquer this land to allow the Sun to melt away the ice to bring them a green, nurturing land.

Inu are typically stout and very tall and reminiscent of a variety of animals - from polar bears to foxes, wolves and other creatures. All Inu are covered in black, brown, grey or white fur, and braid it to show each kill they achieved in battle. Inu eyes are typically yellow, black, brown or red, and may glow in the dark.

Inu consider scars and braids to be signs of experience and respect, and often scar themselves for ritualis. Many paint their fur or bodies before battle to show their allegiances.

Inu are found exclusively within the mountainous northern regions, and live in loose villages and towns that belong to one of the many Inu tribes.
