Neladrin
Neldadrin (Homo Naledi) are among the 7 remaining members of the Hominina subtribe within N'Orvan. Such seven along with Chimpanzees, Gorillas, Orangutans, Orcs, Trolls, Trorks, and Ogres belong to the Hominidae family.
The 7 remaining members of the Hominina subtribe are as follows: Humans, Dwarves, Elves, Artisenians, Halflings, Gnomes, Neladrin, and Goliaths Unlike most members of the Hominidae family, they possess a deep connection with dragons and are taught to train and command them as a rite of passage.

Basic Information
Anatomy
Every aspect of neladrine physiology is closely homologous to the corresponding aspects of animal physiology. The body of the neladrin consists of the legs, chest, back, neck, and head. One adult neladrin body is composed of about 100 trillion (1014) cells. The most commonly defined body systems in neladrins are the nervous, cardiovascular, circulatory, digestive, endocrine, inflammatory, integumentary, lymphatic, musculoskeletal, reproductive, respiratory and urinary systems.
Neladrins lack external tails, have multiple blood type systems, have opposable thumbs, and are sexually dimorphous, as opposed to most other primates. The comparatively small anatomical differences between neladrins and chimpanzees are largely a result of neladrines possessing a bipedal body plan. One advantage is that neladrins get a much faster and more accurate throw than other species. Interestingly, members of the subtribe hominina are among the best long-distance runners in the animal kingdom but slower over short distances. The thinner neladrine body hair and the more involved sweat glands help to prevent heat exhaustion while running for long distances.
Aside from their human counterparts, neladrine anatomy has a more simian face and hair pattern and curved finger bones along with an elongated thumb.

Genetics and Reproduction
Neladrin females have smaller birth canals as a result of bipedalism. The neladrin pelvic structure varies from other primates, much as the toes do. A trade-off for these advantages of the modern neladrin pelvis is that childbirth is harder and riskier than in other mammals, especially given the larger head size of neladrin babies relative to other primates. Neladrin babies have to turn around when they move through the birth funnel when other primates do not, making neladrins the only species where women typically need support from their sources (other members of their species) to minimize birth risks. Neladrin fetuses are born less evolved and more fragile, as a partial evolutionary solution. Chimpanzee babies are cognitively more advanced than neladrin babies before six months of age when accelerated neladrin brain growth surpasses chimpanzees. Another distinction between neladrins and chimpanzee females is that by the end of their lives, neladrins go through menopause and become unfertile for decades. Both non-hominid ape species are capable of giving birth before death. Menopause undoubtedly evolved because it provides younger relatives with an evolutionary advantage over the more sustained caring period.

Ecology and Habitats
Neladrine tend to live all over N'Orvan. They Are well adapted to live in most climates and can extend their reach even further w/ the various pieces of technology.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Neladrine, unlike humans, are typically herbivorous and rarely eat meat, aside from the occasional owlbear - This was before they were discovered within the massive jungle by the colonists of New Falklands - after which Neladrine had graciously opened up trade w/ the colonists and offered them various owlbear hides in offered for exotic fruit like corn, watermelon, and pineapple - before this initial discovery had occurred, the neladrine species had typically eaten the natural wild fruit within their native home continent.
Biological Cycle
Neladrins aren't typically affected by the seasons, they are however by the passing of time their hair tends to turn white and then fall out gradually as they age.
Additional Information
Social Structure
More in line with that of a tribal hierarchy, with arranged marriages, and a tribal chieftain.

Facial characteristics
Neladrins typically two eyes situated above a nose that is above a mouth with two ears located on the sides of their heads. the nose and mouth are not connected to form a snout which is very typical in primates, and much like primates, their face does resemble a chimpanzee's more so than that of a human.
Geographic Origin and Distribution
located within the continent that the Democratic Republic of the Falklands had dubbed 'New Falklands' and rarely seen knocking about the surrounding islands.
Average Intelligence
Sapient.
Perception and Sensory Capabilities
Neladrins possess average eyesight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell capabilities, but have above average proprioception and emotional awareness.
Symbiotic and Parasitic organisms
Unknown
Entomologically speaking 'Neladrin' refers to the species in the singular form whereas 'Neladrins' refers to the species in the plural form of the word. 'Neladrine' is almost always used as an adjective so, therefore 'Neladrines' is grammatically incorrect. And finally, in rare cases 'Neladrine' could be used to refer to the species as a whole.

Body Tint, Colouring and Marking
Neladrine skin colors vary from the darkest brown to the lightest hues in variety. The skin pigmentation of an individual is the outcome of biology, being the consequence both of the genetic makeup of the biological parents of the individual and sun exposure. In evolution, skin pigmentation in humans evolved through a natural selection process mainly to regulate the amount of ultraviolet radiation that penetrates the skin and to control its biochemical effects
