Genasi

Basic Information

Anatomy

Genasi are humanoid creatures, their muscle structure is similar to other humanoids but their skin and hair resemble more of their elemental nature.

Genetics and Reproduction

Genasi give birth to live young - they gestate for around 8 months before giving birth or in rare events of great elemental force a genasi may be produced.

Growth Rate & Stages

Genasi grow reaching adolescence by the age of 8 and are fully developed adults by the age of 22 and live to around 110 - 130 years of age.

Ecology and Habitats

Genasi inhabit areas similar to their elemental alignment, for example, a fire genasi found in wintery mountains is unlikely to be there by their own choice.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Genasi are omnivorous and enjoy a balanced diet.

Biological Cycle

As genasi age their markings become more prominent and the pigmentation of their skin more vibrant. A sign of an adult genasi is a fully formed set of markings and a bold colour.
This does dull with age however the markings will remain as they were when they became an adult.

Behaviour

Genasi typically adopt the behavioral norms of the society they call home. There are only a few tribes of genasi in Ararim and most are scattered in major cities where their colourful skin and elemental appearance raise but a few eyebrows.

History

The seeds carrying the elemental Genasi sought out the fires of volcanoes, the waters of rivers and seas, the air of mountain tops, and the earth of caves and fields.
Genasi grew popular among crafts that required their skills and from here genasi began to scatter themselves among the population of Aararim.
Genasi are happy to inhabit towns and villages and work with their given elemental gifts to further enhance the lives of those around them.
Some genasi prefer to spend their times in nomadic groups wandering areas that are rich with their elemental traits.
