Worlds/Graal Kingdoms/Zormite

The Zormites are a unique fish race which is deeply embedded within Graal's history. They are a nation of xenophobic bipedal species whom wish to gain better understanding of the world while at the same time flouting their superiority over the "land walkers".

The Zormite Empire

Biology

The Zormite Empire is composed of fairly diverse species of the ocean. They are linked by one common trait - the ability to live underwater for long durations of time.

Zormite

The Zormites are bipedal life forms on the Graalian planet who, for the most part, dwell underwater or in very humid conditions. They have two arms which has a claw on each arm. Unlike the land walkers of the surface the Zormites only hold four fingers as opposed to five (they have three forefingers and a thumb). Zormites range in height from 5' to 7' with an average weight of 280lbs for males and 230lbs for females. The diet of a Zormite is a unique menu of items ranging from seed weed to fish and even some land creatures found on the surface. The species has a shorter life span then other creatures, an average Zormite will only last roughly forty years.

The Zormites have a reproduction cycle not seen in the surface dwellers. The females of the Zormites will lay six to eight eggs each in a single hatchery in which the Zormite males will fertilize the eggs. Through this system there is no such thing as royal blood lines - all Zormite hatchlings are created the same without bearing on genetics and the other Zormites adopt these hatchlings as their own. There are few cases of hatchlings not being adopted (any hatchling not adopted enters the military service at birth where he/she will train at a young age). Hatcheries are usually divided amongst the various tribes of Zormite. The Zaeri Tribe Hatchery is a distant area from the Zorbi hatchery.

A Zormite's skin color can vary from Zormite to Zormite. Some are black, some are red, some are pink. The most common Zormite skin tone is an aqua blue.

Sahuagin

The Sahuagin are very similar to their Zormite brothers. However they possess attributes only found in the Sahuagin tribe. The Sahuagins are always green, there has never been an exception for this rule. They also hold the strength of three Zormites in one.

The average weight of a Sahuagin is 320lbs for males and 210lbs for females. Their average lifespan is roughly thirty years with their religious disdain for medical technology

Daulites

The Daulites are a fairly new race to surface to existence. They are a bipedal species of fish with a grayish tone to their skin. They are believed to have emerged from the sea when the meteorite clouded the ocean floor.

The Daulites differ from the Zormites in the fact that they are able to live on the surface for an indefinite time. When they swim for long durations of time then they must reach the top of the water to take air in from a hole in their head.

A Daulite is normally 5' tall, there has never been one recorded taller then 5'5". With their small stature they also have little weight. The average male scales about 110lbs and a female normally weighs about 90lbs.

The Daulites are very different from the Zormites and Sahuagin, however they were similar enough to be inducted into the Empire.

Orcarne

The Orcarne are large creatures hailing from the frigid waters of the north beyond the Antora Mountain. There are few in existence.

Orcarnes live for a long period of time. Their life span is roughly one hundred and fifty years. The average weight of an Orcarne male is 520lbs and 560lbs for a female. An Orcarne diet consists of all vegetarian supplements such as seed weed and various roots.

Orcarnes also hold a special trait that allows them to never forget anything that occurs in their lifetime. This forges them into the wise grandfather persona, the all knowing beings who know from their experiences and not from the books of the world.
