Pair of Nortaul Soldiers
Name: Nortaul
  • Biology: They appear to some cultures as devil-like creatures from the pits of hell, with horns of many shapes and sizes, sharpened teeth, and their reddened skin, a long with a tail with a usually sharp point, which can vary in size. Both female and male have hair, which is usually longer on both sexes. Hair color can vary from black to dark red. Eyes can have pupils and vary in any color, while some are all white, with no pupil. Their horns are usually a little darker then their skin tone, which is usually a red, but can be seen sometime with almost a human-colored tone. The Ears of them also vary from human-like to full pointed.
  • Subspecies: There are several subspecies (Listed Below)
The Wakartel
The Wakartel are a very rare sub species of Nortaul. They have the basic looks of the mainstream race, but differ in two things. The Wakartel can have winds varying in sizes and shapes, and can even fly if large enough. The wings are usually a shade of the skin tone of the person. Another rare occurrence is that they can have shades of black as a skin color.

  • Breeding: Nortaul sexually reproduce much like most other species of the galaxy. Nortaul females are usually pregnant around 14 standard months, or around a standard galactic year and two months, before giving birth. Although mammalian, they give birth to several soft-shelled eggs, which have the coloration of the skin of the baby, and hatch within hours after birth. Babies use their tiny horns to break through the eggs, and get their first meal. Nortaul young can walk almost immediately after birth, around one hour. Although they can walk easily, they have trouble breathing, therefor are usually kept still so they do not run out of breath easily and their tail tied to their backs, which could make them blind until they can control it. Nortaul Young grow slowly, which makes them seem younger then they actually are.

    The control of their tails and breathing increase over the years, and eventually get really good night vision, but until around age 11 they are literally blind in the dark. Due to their appearance and heritage, they are only able to cross-breed with humans and some near-humans. Cross-breeds are very rare due to their culture shunning hybrids. Nortaul reach maturity at the age of 14, which other species call puberty, which males can then grow facial hair.
  • Strengths:
- Long-Lived
- Almost Immune to Extreme Heat
(Will add more soon)
  • Weaknesses:
- Vulnerability to Coldness
- Slow Mobility
(Will add more soon)
  • Diet: Nortauls are Carniverous, eating many native fauna since there is little to no flora on ???(Their Planet, yet to be named)
  • Behavior/Temperament: Despite their looks, Nortauls are a peaceful and forgiving race, which do not hold grudg
  • es or stay mad for long. There is one exception when they are not peaceful, most Nortauls are very defensive about people calling them devils or anything of that sort, If you do such thing you can bet on a battle. They meditate a lot and are wise people.
  • Communication: Before discovering other species and worlds, Nortauls only spoke a small language of dozens of strange words and hand gestures. They are fully capable of speaking Basic, which many decide to learn and sounds usually good and fluent.
  • Culture: The species as a whole are broken down in several "Kingdoms", which rule over a part of the harsh land on the planet. Each kingdom is ruled by a Jahaga, which is King or Chieftain in their language. The Jahaga is usually chosen by his horn size, if their horns are thick or long, that means they usually are stronger and hold a bigger part in the society, or even lead. The Kingdoms form up an alliance, which is ruled by a Nahagel, a Chancellor in their language. The Chancellor is chosen by the same way the Jahaga is chosen, but they must have a special tone to their skin, a reddish-yellow. Although they are in an alliance, that does not stop them from conquering land from each other, although they will help each other if they are raided by the neighboring species.
They are in tune with nature and are very spiritual. The Yahang, or Spiritual Mother in basic, is the spiritual mother in charge of rituals and religious practices of each kingdom. The Yahang is chosen by the swirls of a horn and wisdom. The most swirls in the horns usually means more wise, but that is not always the case. The men in the society regularly have two wives, although chieftains or generals sometimes have up to five.
Although they are peaceful and kind, the military side of their society is very harsh and strict. The Grand Larak is in charge of the armies. The soldiers of the armies get promotions by fighting their superiors, and either killing them or until they surrender. The Grand Larak hosts annual Hunts where soldiers either have to kill enemy leaders or grand beasts. The females are not left out of the army, which they willingly and sometimes are forced to join, unless they were assigned another role in society already. There is little these traditions are not allowed, the grand villages, in which the religious leaders reside. If a kingdom or a soldier of that kingdom were to attack one of these villages, the whole Kingdom would be exiled or killed, depending on the damage.
Some Nortaul are force-sensitive, being able to use many force abilities, mainly Pyrokinesis. The Quara, which is like force-sensitive in their language, are able to use the force which they call magic, with Pyrokinesis and Cryokinesis. Other then that, they can do the other normal force-sensitive abilities, and the Quara are highly respected and considered their saviors.

    NOTE: This section alone can have your species dismissed. Species created on a whim or for purposes to undermine the integrity of the Story will not be approved.

The boards will be cleared when we transition to the next timeline. Feel free to keep this here for now though.

I would move this to the player workshops section of the forum - as I don't think that is getting wiped when the timeline changes :)
