Azra

"There are angels in our midst, and they're annoying as hell!"

Emotional and Beautiful, the Azra's dragonic roots make them too alien to be Human and too Human to be anything else. Thier White hair, pale skin and Sparkling eyes make them brilliant gems in the dull ruins of Nadir, for better or for worse.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Azra look very similar to thier close cousins, the Xin . They are naturally lithe, not particularly tall, and have a fast metabolism. Two things, however, distinguish them from other Vassan: thier gem-like eyes and White hair. An Azra's eyes shines bright against light, and produce a unsaturated hue, unlike most Vassan Eyes.

Genetics and Reproduction

Can reproduce with other Vassan. The Azra gene is dominant in most pairings.

Growth Rate & Stages

While maintaining a human-like schedule (7-8 hours of sleep), the Azra can live for a long time.

Ecology and Habitats

Although they are fairly resistant to extreme weather, they prefer warm and humid environments. Azra tribes like to hold festivals in the rain, as the water and shade emphasizes thier brilliance.

Dietary Needs and Habits

While Azra are omnivores, they tend to favour large amounts of vegetables and grains in thier meals. They eat more than other Vassan, but maintain thier diminutive form.

Biological Cycle

The Azra can hibernate for 4 month periods, this hibernation ages them very little. This hibernation has very little biological function, as Azra are not prone to extreme weather, and most only hibernate in exteme circumstances.

Beauty Ideals

Azra are mesmerized by bright colors and a sense of bodily perfection. In other Azra, they find beauty in the eyes. Beauty, however, often plays a very small part in thier actual relationships.

Courtship Ideals

Azra typically enjoy flirting, and courtship with them tend to be short and fiery. They don't tend care too much about physical appearance, but do care about how others hold themselves.

Relationship Ideals

Azra are natually faithful once they decide on a partner(s). However, they are prone to envy, and don't take betrayal very well. Most are fine with polyamorous relationships, but can't stand infidelity.

Common Dress Code

Never caught without at least a small splash of color, Azra take pride in thier appearance. While the wasteland affords them little chance to wear what they want, any self-respecting Azra will jump at the chance to don a brilliant coat or a flowing dress. When practicality demands it, Azra will decorate thier armors and overalls with paints and colored cloth.
