Thri-Kreen

Thri-kreen wander the deserts and savannas of Dunesiff, avoiding those they preserve to be outsiders and threats. Thri-kreen have insectile features and two pairs of arms. Their bodies are encased in protective chitin. They can alter the coloration of this carapace to blend in with their natural surroundings.
Although thri-kreen don’t sleep, they do require periods of inactivity to revitalize themselves. During these periods, they are fully aware of what’s happening around them.
Thri-kreen speak by clacking their mandibles and waving their antennae, indicating to other thri-kreen what they are thinking and feeling. Other creatures find this method of communication difficult to interpret and impossible to duplicate. When they must interact with other folk, thri-kreen rely on a form of telepathy.
