Muryan

Muryan, also known as Dancing Men, are one of the nine major Arak races. These bloodthirsty fey are the professional combat forces of the Arak , eagerly taking to battle with wild and frenzied but elegant whirling dances. Muryans act as guards and law enforcement for the Arak . The Muyran are chaotic creatures that interpret the laws of Arak society (but not the Law of Arak) loosely.

    Behaviour

    Muryan enter combat ready to test their mettle, though not to the degree of recklessness. Muryan disregard mortal rules of engagement, using ruthless tactics many mortals would find despicable. Muryan attack usually use longbow and scimitar. Muryans favor strategies emphasizing mobility and attacking as many enemies as possible, for their melee strikes inflict a debilitating urge to dance upon their foes. Victims whom succumb to this urge are thrown off balance by despair. A muryan will often join such an impromptu "dance partner", soon causing complete blindness in the foe.   Even being near a muryan in combat can sap one's will to go on. Foes nearby may become slowed followed by deafened. As if this was not enough, muryan can cast a limited amount of arcane spells.   Muryan demonstrate a physical resiliency against weapons, save for those made of mithral or of sufficient magical strength to harm them. They also enjoy total immunity to electricity and weapons made of wood. However, muryans possess the universal shadow fey vulnerability to sunlight.
