The Homo Amicus, or friendly humans, are a species that live on Lyamia. Most of them live in the nation of Nira, though some live in other nations or on the islands, especially nearby Nira.
They got their name due to their intense friendliness. They have intense compassion and empathy and normally stay in large groups.
They walk delicately, and often are quite smart, and are also creative. However, they are not very athletic.
They are omnivores and will eat a wide variety of foods, but most prefer sweet and salty foods.
Every Homo Amicus has traits that align with real-world neurodivergence, commonly similar to ADHD, Autism, and Sensory Processing Disorder

Average Intelligence
Perception and Sensory Capabilities
They have the ability to use powerful magic, with some of the strongest magic powers of each species.
They tend to have very good hearing. This causes them to be uncomftorable or upset in loud areas. However, if too many noises happen around them, they tend to not always be able to hear everything, but they can hear a few ambient noises still, which can also cause them to become stressed. Due to this, in Nira, people tend to be quieter, and they have special fireworks with less volume, and more.
A lot get stressed around bright blue lights, so it is legally required in Nira to have warm and dim lights. Some places have colored lights however, which is a special exception, but they still need to be dim
