Eastern Txori
"The Txori are a fascinating race of bird-folk, divided into two distinct sub-races: the Western Txori and the Eastern Avali. These two groups have diverged so significantly over time that they no longer see themselves as the same race. The Western Txori, often simply referred to as Txori, are known for their isolationist tendencies and their unique lifestyle as magi nomads. They utilize their wings to inhabit mountain peaks and monastery cities, locations that are typically inaccessible to most other races without aid. In contrast, the Eastern Txori, or Avali, are raptor-like birds living in tribes, deeply connected to the land and worshiping their own pantheon of deities. These Eastern Avali thrive in the savanna-like biomes and dense jungles of Ahangen, where they glide gracefully from tree to tree. Both sub-races, though distinct, offer a rich tapestry of culture and tradition that adds to the vibrant diversity of the Animali."
Basic Information
Biological Traits
Eastern Txori reach maturity at around 15 years old and can live up to 300 years. They also have the ability to glide through the air for short distances, thanks to their lightweight frame and unique anatomy. When falling, they can use their gliding ability to slow their descent.
Civilization and Culture
Culture and Cultural Heritage
"The Eastern Txori, also known as Avali, are a unique breed of avian humanoids more akin to feathered raptors than traditional birds. Although they cannot fly, their long, sharp talons and powerful wings enable them to glide and hunt with remarkable precision and agility. The Avali are deeply connected to the natural world, their culture steeped in spirituality and a profound reverence for the land. Living in close-knit, tribal communities, they place great value on cooperation and mutual respect. Traditions are passed down through rich oral storytelling and song, with a high regard for art and creativity. Their intricate, colorful featherwork and beadwork often depict scenes from nature or significant historical events. Notably, Eastern Txori possess a remarkable ability to form deep bonds with individuals beyond their own race. The loss of a pack member can cause them profound grief, deeply affecting their spirits."
The Eastern Txori have a strong sense of cultural identity, rooted in their tribal traditions and their deep spiritual connection with nature. As a result, they tend to be lawful in their behavior, adhering closely to their customs and rituals. Their strict adherence to tradition has led many Eastern Txori to adopt a neutral outlook, choosing to remain neutral and impartial in conflicts that do not directly involve them.
