Kenis

The anthropomorphic sapient creatures of Vionsria

The Kenis are a common species in the country of Vionsria. They have animal-like features like tails, wings, claws/talons, exc. Those are a general trait for the Kenis but the kind of Kenis depends on the tribe territory they live in, though there are a few tribes like Feonis that don't have this factor. Rarely the Kenis have magical abilities but they usually have an attack style based on their Element.

Additional Information

Social Structure

The highest point of the social structure is a tie between the tribe leaders and the grand masters. Below them are the warriors, mages, and shrine maidens/priests. After them are the workers, they include the artisans, bakers, farmers, and other workers. The lowest class is the criminals, yet they only will include the criminals who have killed or attempted to revive Tempester.

Domestication

They are not domesticated, they are a sapient species. Humanity only accepted that fact after they saw the things the Kenis do that the humans never thought of.

Uses, Products & Exploitation

They usually offer things that came of naturally like teeth, claws, or feathers since they have properties in medicine that cure diseases that humans caught from the bugs in Vionsria.
