Tabaxi

The tabaxi are a feline-like humanoid race origianlly hailing from the desert lands of Kiraharr. While they can be found world-over, their populations are extremely scant outside of the continent of Isleway.

Tabaxi are adapted for desert life, with bodies that allow them to prowl over shifting sands with ease, keep cool in great heat, and protect themselves from the harsh sun. Though western scholars have learned only bits and pieces of their culture, it is commonly understood that they enjoy adorning themselves with soft, colorful fabrics, ornate metals and gems.

Redacted: Tabaxi are known for their inquisitiveness, love for culture, and notorious sweet tooth. They make for wonderful chefs, musicians and artisans given their attention to detail and the wealth of cultural riches present in the depths of Kiraharr.

They are accomplished in mystic arts, in crafts, textiles, astronomy, and divination

Tabaxi culture is clan-based, not based on bonds of family (like the aarakocra) but instead on a kinship of philosophy. While dozens of clans may exist, the largest 3 in Kiraharr are Clan Mkalima, Clan Erebossi, Clan Jicho Mvinyo. Kiraharr is believed to primarily be governed and administrated by members of Clan Erebossi.

They are led by a semi-immortal spiritual and administrative head of state known as the Crescent Mother, who according to lore is continuously reborn to lead her people. They live to around 70.

While most tabaxi are lithe, lean, and subtle in their physiology, some can grow to impressive statures. These lion-like and tiger-like tabaxi often make for their warriors and guardians.
