Skyllian Rogues

Appearance

Uamhas are one of the smaller races of Home. They have digitigrade legs with horns that can resemble a bull’s, stag’s or ram’s with females often having smaller horns. They have a brown skin similar to Homeborn but are often in the darker shades while their ears are long and usually floppy. At the back of their head, they have a Lodnuh; A tentacle-like limb that is tipped with a hardened stone-like material. The stone tip can open up to reveal an external nervous interface that an uamhas use to interact with the outside world.

Culture

History

Uamhas are warriors and have participated in many wars, siding with ones that threaten nature the least. They have no interest in diplomacy but understand the use of allies. Therefore, they stay neutral most of the time until a war breaks out. In the modern day, uamhas’ traditional cultures are slowly being destroyed by modernisation. Some are adamant to stay but others are fine embracing the new.

Location

Uamhas are commonly found in central Shimon but tribes of uamhas can also be found in the wilderness in Cwyfol as well.

Cruaidh ( Vinewick )

Uamhas are dedicated to their traditions and in protecting their home and nature to a point where some of them reject the progression of technology and isolate themselves in the wilderness. These uamhas, now known as cruaidh uamhas, have adapted to the ability to focus on the powers of the land. They can be recognised by their more muted hair and skin colors as well as their more elaborate horn and skin patterns. When they perform their ritual, their horns often glow a certain color based on the terrain.

Those who are fed up with uamhas old and tired traditions splinter off to explore the world instead of remaining rooted to one location.

They can be recognised by their smaller horn but vibrant skin and hair colors and more minimalistic patterns on their skin.
