Yukianesa (Old)

Name:  Yukianesa
Male:  Yuki-Otoko
Female:  Yuki-Onna
Child (up to puberty):  Yukinko
Faction: Zodiac Empire 
Notes:  Like Mulians, Yukianesa evolved from the base Terran humans an unknown amount of time ago.  Nominally human, they have evolved to inhabit a colder climate than other human strains.  As such, to a Yukianesa, walking around barefoot in a sundress while in a mountain blizzard is like the proverbial day at the beach to them, though members of other species usually have to bundle up in such a frozen world.  As Yukianesa mostly prefer colder enviroments, enviroments considered 'normal' by other human strains are not lethal to them, though they are at a far worse disadvantage in hotter enviroments like deserts and tropical regions.  To help things, Yukianesa use 'cryo-tech' to keep their body temperatures down in warmer climates to avoid having to either be barely dressed or in full cold suits.
Physically, Yukianesa aren't much different in external apperance from other strains of humanity.  However, they tend to have lighter colored hair in hues of blues and purples.  It is also common for the iris of their eyes to be a shade of blue, usually mixed with a shade of purple, as an outer ring with a lighter shade from there to the pupil.  Though mixed heritage Yukianesa have been known to break from the norm in terms of hair and eye colors.
Of note, Yukianesa are known to produce some of the best cryokinetics.  Though such inviduals born with these powers are rare and rarer still are ones of any decent quality.
Personality wise, Yukianesa tend to be shy and serene.  Their shyness is most evident when a Yukianesa likes someone, especially when outside in a non-Yukianesa community.  It is also part of why Yuki-Otoko wear elaborate 'snow monster' costumes....though this is also a modern holdover of an old tradition where they did this to protect Yukianesa communities.
