== Anatomy, Appearance and Behavior ==
Gecklo skin comes in various colors, such as yellow, green, blue and white. Gecklo are 4 to 5 feet tall as they are typically hunched over. For length, from tail to head, they are about 8 feet long. Sexual dimorphism exists in the Gecklo race. Males have spikes along their backs and tails, while females have feathers not only on their backs but their elbows which hang. Female feathers are akin to hair. Generally, females are brighter colored as they have access to a greater variety of colors through their feathers. For other features, Gecklo have teeth, do not have lips, and have 5 fingers/toes on their hands/feet.
Gecklo do not need to wear clothing as they do not have any visible genitals, nor does the temperature in their typical environment require it. The clothing Gecklo do wear is for functionality, such as for climbing and storage, or as decoration. Rope clothing is common, such as rope harnesses, rope skirts and rope bandages
== Social structure ==
Gecklo are a social and friendly race. They originally were a nomadic, but hidden race. Overtime, a majority of their people have transitioned into a more open merchant-style race. Considering this, money is one of the best gifts for a Gecklo. Although Gecklo are against slavery, as merchants they aren't oppose to selling and trading slaves.
As a social race, the Gecklo often adopt the cultures of the people they are near and interact with. For celebrations, Gecklo celebrate occasions such as a completed deal or a change in station, and whatever other occasions are celebrated from their adopted cultures.
These reptilian people are quite disease resistant, and therefore will eat almost anything. Gecklo hold value in the life of a person and will not eat them. A common dish in their cuisine is maggot salad. One might call this dish an insect amalgamation.
The relationship culture of the Gecklo is polygamous, and they typically do not have marriages. They have sex quite often, and do not get jealous in that regard. They also run brothels called Slime cabins, where many people from other races come to. Those working in the brothels don't worry about children often as it is hard for a Gecklo to have a half-breed child, and female Gecklo specifically have natural defenses against impregnation.
=== Traditions ===
One month a year, female Gecklo become fertile. During this time, members of a community participate in a ritualistic orgy. The offspring of this ritual are taken care of by the tribe, as a community. To ensure strong offspring and that the fittest genes are passed down, Gecklo male semen is naturally parasitic. This semen acts like a virus against other Gecklo semen, allowing only the strongest seed to impregnate a female. 
=== Beauty Ideals ===
Gecklo are particularly adapted to blend in with their habitat based on their skin patterns and see this as very important to pass on to the next generation. A few more important characteristics are scale and teeth health.
== Origins and History ==
Gecklo are an ancientt race of cold-blooded, reptilian humanoids that were at one time the first and oldest civilisation of In Terra Gloria. Long before the rise of Men, Elf or Dwarf, the empire of the Gecklo’s ruled supreme. 
== Religion ==
The Gecklo all revere the Old Ones (Green Pantheon)  as all-mighty deities, the ancient and long forgotten creators of this very world. Many burn natural incense and meditate while being on psychedelic substances to connect with nature itself.
== Architecture ==
Many build large and sophisticated treehouses
