Sindainox

The Sindainox are a subspecies species of Cambion - that is to say, part animal, part something else. They are descended from the Coriniaid, a sapient species formed from oil and sea water who intermingled with the Myacoris, Vespula, and Gannwyll Gwydd.

Who are they and what do they look like?

• Their skin often has a bronze or grayish hue
• They have dark hair and eyes, light hair/eyes is extremely rare

What are their senses or perceptions?

• They have average sight and hearing, and a particularly underdeveloped sense of smell/taste
• Due to the differences in their blood (having more iron, silica, and other minerals), they react differently to metals
• They have the natural ability to sense other silica-based beings, which is known as 'Silicon Syndrome' or 'Silicon Sickness'
• They thus have a natural affinity also for certain metals and chemosynthesis

Where are they in your setting?

• They live mainly in the South
• At one point, their empire covered up to Pestilentia, with certain territories even further North as Sinderfall
• Those who call themselves Henoseth today live mostly in the South and Southwest
• There are some species/tribes descended from them in Sinderfall still, but they are culturally distinct

How do they survive in their environment?

• They were highly organized as a civilization once they began to ally with humans
• Their connection to petrol and silica gives them significant advantages with technology

What is their general attitude?

• They were known for being martial and imperialist, something the Gannwyll Gwydd continued
• Extremely innovative with science and technology
• Seem to be undecided on whether they prefer assimilation or multiculturalism

How do they feel about the other peoples?

• They are seen in an antagonistic light by most peoples, especially after the fall of their empire
• They have a long-standing competitive rivalry with the Urkommen, particularly the Gannwyll Gwydd, who believe that Henoseth are "descended from nothing"
• The irony is the Gannwyll Gwydd are direct descendants of the Henoseth and are Cambion themselves, but don't tell them that
• They have some sympathetic ties to Myacoris and Kubeleya cultures, but not all of them
• They are heavily involved with Coriniaid, Alrauna, and other Nachkommen who are rejected by civilized society
