Possum
Within the Metatherian race, Possums emerge as masters of adaptability and social acumen, renowned for their eloquence, resourcefulness, and signature "playing possum" tactic.
Possum
Possum Metatheria are most know for their gift of gab, adaptability and "playing possum". When they're not scavenging and trading off their finds, they're either helping raise their large families or spending what they just earned.
Possum families tend to be large ones, with the amount of young numbering anywhere from 6 to 12, and occasionally more! Because they have such large family units Possums tend to travel with a few other Possum families, or in even larger caravan groups where they raise their young communally, though its not completely unusual to see a lone family raising their own young. Being raised in large communal groups gives most of their race strong familial type bonds to each other, whether they're actually related or not.

Metatheria
The Metatheria are a nomadic race of almost exclusively merchant class. Due to their built-in pouches, when they are not carrying their young they are able to utilize their own bodies to carry valuable items in a highly secure manner. They may travel in solitary or small family groups. They are typically strong communicators but otherwise lack well-developed social skills due to their nomadic lifestyles making it challenging to form social bonds with others. This results in the Metatheria being stereotyped as socially awkward and/or apathetic, which is not necessarily accurate for every member of the race (although it's not necessarily inaccurate either...).
