Hyvra

"We were defeated, were forced to flee and yet..yet we are here and im honored to cherish this moment".― A Hyvra about the incident of Elem´tur.

Biological Description:
The Hyvra´s have a triangular shaped head with an eliptic shaped nose on the top and two circular ears on each side of the pointy side.

On their cheeks are fine hairy quills, who are used for recognising changes in the enviroment. For an example: Wildfire,Tornado, Earthquakes and so on. Their appeareance is almost mammalian to insectoid like while some parts of their skin is that of a dolphin, the belly itself has small chitin plates on the back and the front. The horns on their side neck have a special abillity to store certain positve chemicals in their body and if by chance all of the life systems are going down, the chemicals will be activated - thus stitching the body of the Hyvra back together.The holes in their legs and arms are used for circulating the air through their body allowing the Hyvra´s to run for a very long time or for travelling to high places.They even have a second elastic armor plate between the heart and the chest, which makes them very hard to kill.

Hyvras can also have abominations mostly on their eyes, as long as it won´t damage the brain.The height of a Hyvra lays beetween 1,80 to 2,10m and their weight from 50 to 60 kg.

Their diet is omnivore and they have a lifespan of almost 70 years, altough its also possible for a Hyvra to reach a lifespan of nearly 80 years. These hazards however, occur quiet rare in their society.

The reprodutcion organs of a Hyvra wether male or female, are both internal and are located in a special chamber over the palatal. Hyvra´s are fertile at an age of 11 to 12 years.

Evolution:
Their kind once splitted up from a group of semi sentient Axolotl like creatures called the maptuar. The split must have occured approximately around 5 to 4 million years ago, before the awakening of humankind.

Duan (planet):
This Planet is located somewhere at sirius in the middle Tenebrarum and is similar to Earth´s atmosphere and ecosphere. Altough the landmark is mostly covered in savahnna and grassland biomes, there are few regions to the east and south, which have small to medium sized rainforests. The rainforest themselves contain a huge variety of plant- and wildlive.The planet itself has 2 oceans called Eptic (in the east) and Xaptic (in the west). Both of the oceans flourish with life and contain huge parts of coral forests as well as similar kelp forests.

A day on Duan takes 26 hours and has 12 months and 4 seasons.

Duan has 2 two moons, which are called Hepatesh and Teranis and are slightly smaller than the earth´s moon.

Religion:
The Hyvra whorship only one god called Elem´tur, who is also known as "the god with the golden eyes" and has a cross shaped skull with 4 eyes at each tip and 4 mouths at the inside of the cross.They believed that Elem´tur once created the universe by weaving it with his own shiny saliva and that their homeworld (same name as their god) was formed when he lost a few of his scales.Elem´tur is described as a kind and understanding god,who sees mercy in everyone no matter how huge the crime of a creature was, as everyone has a place in Ei´at (heaven) regardless of origin and race.

There are three festivals in the Hyvra culture - one called Elamet, which celebrates the birth of all living beings and planets with a huge sweet feast for an entire week during spring. The other two festivals are called Yam´ra and Ugoth´ra. Yam´ra is the festival of light and occurs during summer. The Hyvra´s will light up all the towns with lanterns who are coloured differently, to thank the stars for a new day. Ugoth´ra however, is celebrated during winter.There the Hyvra´s will put out all the lights for a day to show gratitude to the darkness, for having great sleeps and stargazing during the night.

Society and culture:
The society of the Hyvra is very democratic and only a few rules exist in their law system.

The law is set up by these rules:

1. A Hyvra must not kill another creature,unless it is for the sake of self defense or survival.

2. A Hyvra is only allowed to steal and destroy an object, if that thing has crucial consequences over the folk and the planet.

3. A Hyvra must give,if possibel,shelter to a injured or homeless creature.

4. When a Hyvra took something from nature,he has to give it back after some time (like planting a new tree).

5. A Hyvra can go wherever it wants to go,unless it is for the privacy of other creatures.

'''6. All living beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.''' While some of these laws were set up by their cult 4500 years ago in the Halatelt era (6000bc - 2000bc), the

great circle added and corrected them during the Panaton era (2000bc - 1200ad), which caused a huge uproar

back in the cult. The cult of Elem´tur started a bloodless movement against their laws for about 3 weeks, as they had to realize later, that even their old law system was to flaw and chaotic and stopped their movement.Since then, the cult never complained about the great circle ever again, as they started to respect each other as well as exchanging their ideas with them.

The great circle has a number of 5 to 6 Hyvra´s, sometimes even 8 and they overview the society with the cult together.

The Hyvra´s clothing Types:
Since the hasty departure from Elem´tur, the Hyvra´s had very little time left to create new clothings for their new enviroment. However, this wasn´t needed anymore as they aproached on Duan, they had to realize that Duan´s climate was almost humid as Elem´tur but just a bit dryer.

The Style of the Hyvra´s look except of the few metal parts quite primitve, but their function lays more in adapting,rather than standing out. The entire cloth set up is either made of loincloth,leather,fur,feathers,bones and scales, but the Hyvra´s also tend to mix them up too. From left to right:
