Phatem
Basic Information
Anatomy
The Phatem are tall humanoid warriors known for their impressive stature. Their skin tones range from green, tan, and sometimes a greyish color. Phatem possess muscular builds optimized for combat, with dense bone structures and robust frames, while still maintaining lanky builds similar to humans. Their eyes glow faintly in low-light conditions, typically hues of green or amber, giving them excellent night vision.

The Phatem life cycle closely mirrors humans, though they mature slightly faster, reaching physical adulthood by age 16. They generally live about 20 years longer than the average human, with an average lifespan of around 95 years.
Ecology and Habitats
Phatem originate from the planet Thal'kora, a harsh, rocky world filled with rugged mountains, dense forests, and vast deserts. This environment has contributed significantly to their warrior culture and physical resilience.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Phatem are omnivorous with diets rich in protein. They traditionally hunt native wildlife but also consume cultivated grains and roots adapted to their harsh homeworld.

The Phatem are inherently competitive and martial due to centuries of survivalist culture. Originally, their warrior ways evolved as a defense mechanism against aggressive fauna and constant tribal warfare for scarce resources. Honor, courage, and strength define their social structure.
