Lyran

A Lyran is a creature in Lost Ages. They are a civilised race which generally live in the southern deserts of Lunaris. They are very skilled with melee weapons, despite not being perceived as particually strong, and often duel wield weapons which suits their quick, agile build and fighting smarts. Lyrans are also competent magic users.

Biology
The look of a Lyran can change very dramatically. This is because there are very few pure Lyran left and the majority of them have elvern heritage too.

A pure Lyran is around 5"6. They have feline features with a furry skin. Their face shape is rounded and they have ears which are small, triangular and positioned at the top of their head. Their eyes are almost almond shaped and have slits to allow for improve night vision. They have very small or no lips which are almost attached to their nose.

The more elvish a Lyran is, the more elvish features they will have. Their lips will get bigger and further from their nose. Their skin will get soft instead of furry and ears more pointed.

Culture
Despite the heavy elvish blood the majority of their population is often independent to other races. In their community there a lots of small village communities and trading caravans to deliver supplies across the desert. There is a large mining community where they collect minerals benath the sands and sandstone which is often used to construct their buildings, especially in the cities. Generally they are too very respectful, noble and honerable. Their army is small however due to the prior mentioned traits in times of need they will band together to form great numbers.
