Basic Information
Anatomy
These humanoids resemble slender simians, with lithe muscle and fur-covered bodies. They retain the tail and prehensile feet which humans lack, but their general shape is much closer to a human than a monkey. Their skin is usually grayish or ashen. However, their fur is much more vibrant, ranging from fiery reds to dusky oranges and golden yellows. Around their head, the fur accumulates more into a mane. Often times, this mane is braided.
