Loxodon

The humanoid elephants called loxodons are often oases of calm. They hum or chant in sonorous tones and move slowly or sit in perfect stillness. 1f provoked to action, loxodons are true terrors- bellowing with rage, trumpeting and flapping their ears. Their serene wisdom, fierce loyalty, and unwavering conviction are tremendous assets to their friends.

Basic Information

Biological Traits

Lumbering Giants Loxodons tower above most other humanoids, standing over 7 feet tall. They have the heads- trunks, tusks, ears, and faces-of elephants, and hulking bipedal bodies covered by thick, leathery skin. Each of their hands has four thick digits, and their feet are the flat-bottomed, oval-shaped feet of elephants. Like that of an elephant, a loxodon's trunk is a useful appendage. In addition to providing a keen sense of smell, the trunk can be used to lift and carry even heavy objects. The trunk can be used to carry both food and liquid to the mouth and can even act as a snorkel.

Civilization and Culture

Naming Traditions

A loxodon's name includes subtle tones, produced in a loxodon's resonant nasal chambers, that indicate status, family connection, and community role. Since most non-loxodons can't distinguish these underlying tones, let alone produce them. loxodons often translate them into titles. such as Hierarch. Revered, Grandmother, Healer, or Saint when interacting with other races.   Male Names : Bayul, Berov, Brooj, Chedu mov, Dobrun, Droozh, Golomov, Heruj, llromov, Kel, Nikoom, Ondros, Radomov.

History

Gifted Stoneworkers   Loxodons are tireless, patient artisans with an unrivaled intuition about their craft. Although they make nurturing spiritual leaders, their gift for stonework is so ingrained that they are often at a loss when they try to impart that knowledge to others.   Relentlessly Loyal   Loxodons believe in the value of community and life. Loxodons believe that the members of a group have a responsibility to look out for each other. Once they have joined a guild or bonded with other individuals in any capacity, loxodons devote themselves to maintaining that bond. They coordinate their efforts and are often willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of the group. They expect reciprocal loyalty and commitment from the other members of their communities and can be severe in their disappointment when their trust is betrayed.
