Like all of the cosmic races, each casoh is unique in its physicality. Most casoh take on a majority of the traits of its mortal parent, generally gaining one or two otherworldly aspects. Sometimes, an casoh chaotic power is purely mental, and it might appear as a normal member of its mortal parent species until its power is utilized.

Genetics and Reproduction

Any humanoid creature may give birth to a casoh, but it is much more common for them to spring from humans.

Growth Rate & Stages

Casoh are slow growers, often reaching adulthood five years after the normal age for their mortal race.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Axions often share the dietary needs with their mortal parent, but often will get bored of eating regular foods and will go out of their way to try new tastes.

Most casoh share any biological needs with their mortal parents, but are often less affected by things such as temperature or seasonal change.

Additional Information

Facial characteristics

A casohs' facial characteristics vary depending on the mixing of their mortal and outsider parents. Sometimes they appear as a normal member of a mortal race, but sometimes having more otherworldly and alien features.

Geographic Origin and Distribution

Being one of the more rarer cosmic races, Casohs have no specific regional locations in the world, but tend to born more often in remote villages or more rural areas.

Average Intelligence

Casohs are crafty and full of passion, able to quickly learn new projects and adapt to new situations. While they seem to have boundless energy, they lack the patience for most long term projects and will often try new ways to speed up their results.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

All casoh have darkvision, regardless of the race they are born into.

Civilization and Culture

Naming Traditions

Casoh usually share the naming traditions of their mothers species.

Major Organizations

Casohs are very independent, and often struggle when trying to work in an organization.

Beauty Ideals

Many casohs have strange or mismatched features, and often find beauty in messy things or things others might view as unattractive.

Gender Ideals

While casohs often share the same gender roles as their mortal parent, their rebellious nature and desire for freedom often leads them to reject the ideals of their society.

Courtship Ideals

Most casoh share the courtship ideals as their mortal parent, and casohs will often fall head over heels for a potential partner and push their courting efforts to the extreme.

Relationship Ideals

Most casohs are outgoing and extroverted, making easy friends early. They will often always attempt to help their friends or family, even when asked not to, but have trouble commiting to their long term plans.

Average Technological Level

Casohs often craft both items and items in haste, rapidly going through ideas almost as fast as they come up with them. Rarely do these ideas ever work out, but this never stops the casoh from trying something new.

Common Dress Code

While they often share the same dress code as their mortal parent, many casoh find themselves drawn to loose fitting garbs, such as vests and capes, and will often constantly change around their wardrobe.

Common Customs, Traditions and Rituals

Casohs often follow the same traditions of their mortal parent, but will struggle in strict societies, bulking at customs that impose on their agency. In more free-spirited societies, casohs will often find themselves in the few positions of authority such systems have.

Common Taboos

Many casoh hate being told what to do and dislike things that infringe on the freedoms of others. Thus, most casoh will never follow laws they view as unjust, and for a casoh to turn over one of its friends to the law would be a betrayal of its very nature. Despite this some casoh turn against their nature, and become brutal enforcers of the law, utilizing their boundless energy to fuel their crusades.

Common Myths and Legends

Few casohs join any organized religion, often preferring to worship personally or not at all. Most casohs venerate Protos, the Primal Chaos, but often also worship a chaotic Celestial Paragon or Fiendish Lord, such as Vohmanah or Thom.

Interspecies Relations and Assumptions

Casohs are one of the rarer cosmic races, and most wouldn’t even recognize them. They might think they are an Aasimar or a Tiefling, but may also simply believe that they are an overly energetic member of their parent race. Most casoh are very outgoing, and often can overwhelm others with their enthusiasm. In the societies of chaotic and tribal races, casohs often find themselves in positions of power, although most of those races don’t recognize a casoh for what they are, and simply believe that they have received some blessing.
