Yodusa

The Yodusa people (Yodusan: Ódusa, Lo'Oi: Vodusa, Baszku: Yuduja) are an ethnic group found predominately in Zilatra, largely congregated in the Eastern frigid villages and cities of Dalar Prefecture.
They have a number of traits which distinguish them drastically, namely bearing feline-like ears towards the top of their head in addition to a tail. They are also well known for occult and magic practices, with Yodusa culture and spirituality often centering around fire. In Zilatran society, many Yodusa have a reputation as witch doctors (hatanya) and fortune-tellers (saqeli czamaku/maharaku).
== History ==
=== Ethnogenesis ===
The ethnic group arose in the immediate aftermath of Lo'Oix exodus into Abexilas, as the people of towns like Suluzar (often called the "Duckii") wandered multiple nations like the Dariath and others, before eventually making their way to Zilatra. According to Yodusa legends, in the process of their exodus, they mixed with and learned from a number of peoples in the wilderness of Abexilas, including one group typically called the Jealo. Eventually settling in villages like Transaria, the Yodusa had undergone ethnogenesis and became a group separate from the Lo'Oix entirely, though they do speak a language descended from it.
=== Early history ===
While a very small ethnic group, the Yodusa have had a profound impact on the cultural zeitgeist of Zilatra as well as on the political realm. They remained largely congregated in towns like Transaria and Lasaji, both in Dalar Prefecture.
