Viera

The Viera are a beautiful and mysterious folk, shrouded in mystery as many spend most of their lives in the woodlands and plains which they call home. Their tall, slender bodies adorned with rabbit-like traits creates an air of grace amongst them. Long, high angled feet require high-heeled shoes and dexterous clawed fingers help to draw a striking image of the Viera.

People of the Wood

The word Viera itself means "people of the wood," drawing their origins to the deepest parts of the Great Forest of Kildea. Both the Rava and the Veena boast tall, lithe frames and graceful traits of rabbits. The Rava left the forest and crossed the Conde Petie mountains, eventually making their home in the Troia Veldt and grew to have umber skin and dark hair, granting them protection from the sun on the sparsely forested plains. In stark contrast the Veena have very light skin and fair hair, calling the deep, dark forests of the Kildea home.

Viera Names

Viera names are often short in nature, normally only 4characters long. The letter "J" is used as a vowel in their tongue creating confusion at times for those who are not familiar with the Viera language. Despite close attention to purity in their bloodlines, the Viera do not worry about lineage and do not have family names.
