Córbis People

The Córbis /korbɪʃ/ (korbish) are a group of ethnicities that belong to the species Felis arboris. They are native to the lands of Abexilas, mainly to the forests. Since the migration of Eldhamites and Rathnirians into Abexilas, many of the Córbis fled from their homes and formed new communities deeper into the land to avoid the settlers, others began to join the settlers, live among them, and create flourishing new societies. 
Córbis culture features a variety of ceromonial rituals and traditions. These, along with many other aspects of Córbis society are the result of the Mostáe /mʊʃtaj/. These are a set of 838, written in the Córbis language, which tell their readers how to live in this complex world. These poems are said to originally be whispers from mother earth herself. Mother earth is the singular god of the Córbis religion and is known in their language as Jonáeji /ʒʊnajʒi/. 
The law (which is called Boájami /bʊaʒʌmi/) is very important in Córbis culture. This is because the Mostáe provide an array of moral and ethically complex issues and what their solutions should be. This means that Córbis law is respected, consistent, and a deep part of the culture. Theft and violence and seen as especially reprehensible crimes and strict pacifism is practiced by most if not all Córbis people. Those charged with interpreting the law and setting precedent by convicting are called Buajamísa /bʊʌʒʌmisa/, this can be translated to english as magistrate. 
=== Physical Traits ===
The Córbis have slender humanoid frames with short-medium hair over their bodies that comes in many shades and patterns. In certain areas Córbis may also grow some amount of longer hair, around their groin, on their chests, under their arms and in some individuals as manes. Their are both Male and Female Córbis but the two have few differences other then subtle facial structure differences, a small difference in height, and different reproductive and mammary organs. Córbis have excellent noses and can easily recognize, remember, and track scents. Their noses are small and feline shaped. Córbis eyes are excellent in the dark and come in a variety of shades. 
==== Fur ====
Córbis come from one of nine kindreds, and each have their own fur patterns and colors. However it is common now for Córbis to be mixed between kindreds so the patterns are even more varied then what I’ll provide context on here. 
First Second and Third The first three kindreds are from the humid forests and have brown and orange and grey fur over their bodies with some having white underfur and sometimes also white, orange or brown manes. 
Fourth The fourth kindred are from the woodland hills and have black and brown fur with grey and white underfur. Many have solid brown or black manes although patterned manes are just as common. Some of the fourth kindred are all black.
Fifth The fifth kindred is from the snowy tundra and have coats of white and grey and black. Their underfur is always white. The manes of the fifth kindred are the most unique part as their manes can be blends of white and grey and black in soft curls which often runs halfway down their backs, over their shoulders and blends with the underfur on their chests and underarms and groins. 
Sixth The sixth kindred are from the cold dark woods and have velvety black fur with white paws and sometimes white underfur. Generally they have medium length black manes and in many cases white manes. Their are also higher then average rates of feline albinism in the sixth kindred.
Seventh The seventh kindred are from the prairie. They have thick blonde or orange fur with blonde or creme underfurs. Their manes are generally blonde or red and often dont match their primary fur color. Their is a small chance for seventh kindred to have white manes as well.
Eighth & Ninth The eighth and ninth kindred are from the coasts and have short soft grey fur. most do not have manes and have very short underfur. Their underfur can be white or grey but is more often white. In the ninth kindred alone paws are almost always white.
==== Eye Color ====
Much like their fur, the nine kindreds of the Córbis dictate much of the eye color.
First, Fifth, & Seventh In the first, fifth, and seventh; blue and grey are the most common, although some first kindred also have green, brown, or hazel, eyes. 
Second & Third In the second and third kindreds green, brown, and hazel, are seen. Hazel is the most common however.
Fourth In the fourth kindred eyes are either amber ,or brown, with some being almost black. Some individuals in the fourth kindred have dark blue eyes.
Sixth In the sixth kindred eyes are normally bright green although they can also be bright blue or yellow. 
Eighth In the eighth kindred eyes are almost always bright green.
Ninth In the ninth kindred eyes are almost always bright blue.
