Kai'Tala
“The people of this system require leadership. The Artheros will lead us all to peace.”
Jaw filled with jagged teeth, and pack lands that stretch to the horizon. The Kai Tala embody some of the best features of the Artheros people. A unmatched instinct for tracking, and a burning hatred of traitors are only a few of the things that bind the Kai Tala together.
Tenacious Hunters
Blunt and slow to trust the Kai Tala are knows as the most skilled hunters of the Artheros. Though they stand the same height of most humans but weighing almost twice as much. An obvious result of their innate physicality. Even though they walk and talk like other sentient creatures, the Kai Tala have not escaped some of their animal nature, occasionally giving into their more primal urges. Of all their physical features their fur is of their most cherished. No matter the color, from Snow white, shades of brown to the deepest blacks. Their pelts are kept clean and well maintained. Males in particular will carefully die sections of their fur in different patterns and colors.
Slow to trust, But Loyal to the death
The Kai Tala hold their own race (The Artheros as a whole) above other races. This leads them to not trust the other races. Though they are not unkind, they are very suspicious of other races. A human may be allowed to enter the city owned by the Kai Tala, but they would not be easily welcomed into a home. But if you have helped them significantly, gone out of your way to assist or save them, or manage to befriend one. You have gained a treasure, a loyal friend until you or him stop breathing. Kai Tala are known for they bluntness and they do not break easily. Centuries of tradition and loyalty to the ideas left over by their founders have given them unwavering endurance. Those ideas of Nobility, Loyalty,respect (even for their enemies) and an absolute hatred for traitors. Make the Kai Tala passionate and honorable friends and terrifying enemies.
Packs and Ether
Extending from grass lands, frozen forests and dank marshes. Large packs spread deep into these territories. Some of these larger packs can rival the size of kingdoms but they are efficient like close family groups with their leaders usually a mated couple. There are locations in Pack lands that are even restricted to the most trusted of friends and allies. Most are terrified of flying and prefer to keep their feet on the ground. To the Kai Tala the Ether is more than just a fact of the universe. To them it is a scared privileged given to the Artheros alone. Other races using it is considered Taboo to them. A lot of their research,and knowledge concerning the Ether is kept secret and never shared with outsiders.
Patrons of the Moon
From childhood, the Kai Tala learn the legend of the battle that defined their race. Each Kai'tala when they become of age chooses an hero and swears their life to uphold their ideals. Under the light of full moon and a battle spread over miles, thes Kai'tala would see no match to their might.
Taramo, the Valiant
Taramo was the most tenatious and stalwart of their people. Always putting others before himself he was an inspiration to all those who followed him. Those who follow him swear an oath of Humility, vigor and to be righteous defenders.
Nezilla and Zafirah, Nights Hunters
The huntress sisters were unmatched in tactics. The sister were inseporable on the battlefield and unparalleled in the hunt. Silent, near invisible and ruthless. No one escaped their sight and no enemy ever crossed their line. Following their path is not an easy one. A deadly equation of hunter and hunted, strike first and last.

Kai Tala in ErodelThe Kai Tala were essential to the founding and establishment of the empire and still hold sway in its politics.Their territory covers just under half to the empire land, which is Erodel's most easily traversable thus defensibly vulnerable sections. To the Kai Tala of Erodel work very closely with the Hibari - another Artheors species closely tied to the origins of the Kai Tala- willing submitting control and leadership of the Empire to them.

Very interesting and well put together- tribal species/cultures are always a fun read. Usually, I find they are more prone to the side lines in terms of importance, but it looks like the Kai'Tala serve a vital role to the Erodel's safety, which is a nice take.
Thank you, I try my best.
