Scorax

= The Scorax =

The Scorax are the intriguing race that occupy Scoraxia on the Isles of Kryalia. Not dissimilar to humans or elves, they are slightly taller and more slender than a standard human, but not to the extent of an elf, and have slightly pointier ears. Their main distinguishing feature, however, is their red eyes. Every member of the Scorax race has red eyes, varying from bright scarlet to blood red. The eyes of a Scorax, however, are known to literally glow during times of emotional or physical stress.

Scorax are also known for their general tendancy to have rather extravagant hair, and have slightly archaic codes of conduct.

Historically, the Scorax have been at war with Aelaria - previously Old Kryalia - but for the last 220 years have been amicably getting along. They are proud, however, and therefore cannot really stand their Half-Scorax neighbours. The Half-Scorax are more similar to humans than Scorax and generally are only distinguishable by a glow in their eyes brought about by emotional or physical stress.

For the purposes of character generation, use Half-Elf stats for Scorax and Human for Half-Scorax. It is important to note that Scorax, by default, cannot speak Elven but instead speak Scoraxian.
