Isuran Karakhai

Isuran Karakhai are an ethnicity of Karakhai that physically resemble mako sharks.
Compared to other Karakhai they are a little bit less muscular but they are leaner and swim faster.  Physiologically the differences are not that extreme.  Their main differences are cultural.
The main difference while all Karakhai do not like to sit still and tend to live migratory lifestyle, the Isuran Karakhai really really migrate often swimming thousands of miles every year.  Their tribes tend to be a bit smaller than the Karakhai average.
While they are not especially hostile to civilized nations they certainly are not friendly and prefer the wide open waters of the more remote areas of Scarterra.  A few will trade with other Scaraquans for weapons and tools but the items they manufacture tend to be pretty crude usually fashioned out of bone or coral or scavenged from ship wrecks.
Speaking of ship wrecks.  It's not unheard for Isurans to attack Scarterran ships but it's not common.  But they do cover a lot of ground so if a ship sinks somewhere due to an unrelated reason there is a good chance a tribe of Isurans will run across it before anyone else does unless the ship in question sank into unusually deep waters.  Isuran Karakhai, like most of their kind prefer to stay in the sunlit regions of Scaraqua.
