Abyssin

Average Lifespan: 300 years 
 
The distinctive feature of the Abyssin people is their single eye, and tough, leathery grey-green skin. Not particularly fast, or even particularly strong for their size, these large sentients are nonetheless extremely hardy.
 
Native to Byss, a harsh desert world with little water, the Abyssin people are good at surviving, especially in harsh environs, where their leathery skin acts as a barrier to the elements. Their keen instincts for natural environments enhance their physical resilience.
 
Abyssins hail from a nomadic tradition of close-knit communities. They tend to stick together, and any Abyssin worth anything usually has a close coterie of blood-brothers who will stand up for him (or her) in almost any situation. This close-knit communal society gives Abyssins a good sense of cooperation, which has proved useful in combat situations.
