Introduction:

Lashunta are a humanoid mammalian species native to an unknown world, long ago transformed into their current forms by the Super-Aberrant Megafauna to serve as soldiers in the canceled fourth divine war. Their innate powers and ancient origins has led to them being found nearly everywhere.   Scientific Name: Homo novus  

Appearance:

Lashunta closely resemble Humans, as they share a common ancestor ~950,000 years ago and originate from the same planet. Their unique features include skin color with hues from across the visible spectrum, facial markings, and two antenna.   A lashunta's antenna allow them to telepathically communicate with other sapient creatures nearby. This ability is fueled by magic, a force that the lashunta are one of the very few species able to naturally wield. They can also manipulate magic to produce basic effects, something normally possible only with a Corite focus.  

Lifestyle:

Lashunta are omnivores and share the diet of the other memebers of the homo genus. Because of their magical nature lashunta are immune to corite poisoning, unless the levels of corite are exceptionally high.   Lashunta are highly social and normally live with their own kind or other social species like humans. Their somilarity to humans means that the two species are often found together and usally treat each other as the same species.  

(META) Playing a Lashunta:

  As a person with free will, your character can act and think in any way you want them to. If you want them to follow the norm for a lashunta, take the following into consideration:   -Many lashunta seek company with only other lashunta or humans, and only associate with some aliens.   -A lashunta's innate magical abilities leads to some lashunta seeing their species as superior to others.
