Races/Dargai
From Hebridonia Wiki
The Dargai are very similar in outward appearance to humans. Normally a beautiful people with glossy black hair, narrow faces and arched brows and swarthy complexions. They are taller than humans (determine height normally, then add 6 inches). The Dargai have two non-human features: their pupils are slitted vertically (like a cat's), and their hands have 6 digits, each with an extra joint. They prefer rich but somber clothing after the human fashion, and are usually unarmed unless preparing for battle or on a dangerous journey. If they are traveling in Hebridonia, they are DEFINITELY armed, especially if they are not using a disguise.
The Dargai are a mysterious and secretive race. Few venture beyond their realm, primarily because of the brutal war which their country wages on their neighbors. Any Dargai traveling in a foreign land would most likely be disguised (magically most likely) so they don't draw attention. While their true physical appearance may be hidden, their paranoid and sadistic tendencies are more difficult to mask. They hate other races, and are known to undertake massive military campaigns to wipe a single race from existence if it suits their purpose. The Fauns are the latest victims of such brutality, with only a fraction of the entire race escaping into Hebridonia.
It is known that most Dargai have at least some Magical Aptitude, and that they indoctrinate their young into the magical arts at a very early age. Within the past 50 years, rumors have spread that the Demarian empire has begun a massive effort to master the arts of Necromancy, a rumor that became well accepted fact during the last Demarian war...
