Hakin

Lizard Men

Overview

## Biology and Appearance

They are bipedal, humanoid reptiles they have the ability to go a certain time without eating.

Although most of them are cold-blooded, the intense natal heat of the planet and certain modifications in their organism, such as the ability to assimilate the large amount of oxygen in the environment, make them a surprisingly active breed at many times.

They are covered by scales although the specific type of scale varies to which reptile is parched and has a pertenesque environment from those that look like crocodiles with scales and steoderms thick to soft and flexible that are shaped like snakes.

In clothing themes they generally use primitive clothing such as furs, although leaders such as great warriors and priests wear feathers and clothing similar to metal armor in which gold is the most common.

### Physiology

Due to the extremely tropical climate of their planet, reptiles have proliferated taking large numbers of niches, This of course includes the humanoid type.

The Hakin have a quite complex system of lungs that is in charge of taking advantage of the large amounts of oxygen on the planet, this makes them have improved physical capacities, incredible resistance to diseases and the ability to absorb oxygen as the main energy added to the capacity of Taking all the protein out of the food makes the gut system quite atrophied.

The hakin can only be males (there is the derogatory lizard men) so they need females of other humanoid species to reproduce, although this is compensated by the large number of females in hayar-yat due to immigration.

The Hakin generate a large amount of testosterone to stimulate their aggressiveness, mood, cooperative capacity and reproduction, the amount of these hormones depends on the individual and generally larger and more powerful species means more testosterone although the effects of these usually vary as well.

Another great characteristic of their body is the amount of pheromones they secrete to stimulate the females, these pheromones usually vary according to the species of hakin in question, although generally it is the largest species that produce massive amounts (of the tail, mouth and genitals).

When they enter the female's system by any means, it stimulates the hypothalamus by increasing the primitive instincts of its partners, and increases the amount of androstadienone produced by the female.

### Physical Diversity

They are highly dependent on the environment they are mainly in because haka-yat, ecosystems change little.

Generally the ones that measure 1.80 to 1.90 are the smallest and regularly the smartest, but they are the most powerful for dangerous and heavy tasks.

Although more mentally short when it comes to slightly more complex tasks, these warriors generally respect their smaller counterparts quite a bit and it is not annoying to receive orders from time to time.

The hakin of more arid areas last longer without eating, very useful in deserts and savannas.

Those in areas such as jungles and forests are larger due to their more frequent feeding (They are also better swimmers).

Although of course this can vary.

## Behaviour

They are a species with a natural gift for combat and following orders (at least among themselves) they are protective, aggressive and very rarely show things like fear, denial or doubt.

They enjoy simple things such as primitive music, eating, drinking, reproducing, etc. that if when a blessed person does something, they generally do it with a wild and bestial enthusiasm that encourages reverence, when one of these individuals touched by the gods meet great rituals, perform great feats etc. the atmosphere is filled with grotesque religious ovations that shout their names.

They are also creatures with an insatiable reproductive instinct, jealous and territorial with their partners added to their aggressive genitals, making inexperienced females faint most of the time. The act would be very painful without the stimulating pheromones.

## Society and Culture

### Government

The hakin government relies heavily on the following of the select. The oldest and wisest are taken as the strongest as authority figures without any objection from the masses.

Generally these individuals are quite easily distinguished both by their appearance that the changes vary depending on why God has been chosen, and by their clothes, much more extravagant and mystical than normal.

#### Priests

With a more agile mind and great powers, when they are not in combat apart from being an important religious leader, they fulfill the duties of organization, administration, etc., the greater the civilization, the greater the number of positions they can represent.

If labor is needed by the Hakin civilization, even the great warriors will not hesitate to follow his orders.

#### Generals

Great warriors much larger than normal sometimes touched by the favor of a god, They are the ones who lead the fearsome hakin warriors, with a ferocity that has transcended the barrier of their planet, with legends about their exploits.

#### Lashunta

When a Ratih destroyed the underground structures from which they are born, the Hakin in increasingly decimated numbers came in desperate search of solutions.

And that other species came up with the solution the controversial greenish-skinned sub-species of the azulith the "xiuh'teo" provided a female specimen known as "Lashunta" that turned out to be highly compatible with both the hakar-yat environment and genes that were compatible to reproduce with other species.

Easily supplanting the need of the female of the species. The effective solution buried the ethical and moral doubts without knowing that lashunta were in fact chimerical living weapons designed to thrive and reproduce in any environment.

### Religion

From the event called "The Arrival of the Gods" where many of these beings saw hakar-yat as the indicated place where to get involved and manifest in the world, the great old unique ones that are worshiped by the hakin are very varied to the point of make up large and varied pantheons.

The god in question may vary according to the sub-species of hakin and where it is found, as the requirements are fulfilled the god will provide blessings to his believers that will give them a bright future in their plans. Blessings can also fall on items becoming divine relics wielded by heroes. In large cities with many species of hakin, it is normal to have a pantheon dedicated to these gods, depending on the species a god could be more active in what he does.

### Diet

omnivore by culture, but are more carnivorous by descent with primitive weapons but supported by a natural force, the hakin are capable of hunting animals like the dangerous elephants of hakan.

The acquisition of food may vary depending on the environment where they live.

Asabi (Hakin desert dwellers) often eat cacti regularly, they will also eat the great variety of large arthrodopes (such as giant scorpions) found in the desert, small mammals and if they have large individuals than any other large reptile.

### Tecnología

The hakin artifacts and devices are truly strange and unique, they are a combination of resources with strange effects mixed with the magic of manipulation of the hakin having similar and much better effects to those with much more developed cultures.

They also have much more complex artifacts developed in the arrival of the gods. Such mechanisms have not been equal in the fight against corruption, and have been subjected to exhaustive studies.

### Economy

The Hakin have a primitive economic system based mainly on exchange, although there are some native currencies that are mainly used in large cities much more advanced than the barbarian tribes that populate other parts of the planet.

Generally, the Hakin among themselves exchange the resources they obtain for others that would be more useful depending on their situation.

What is useless for a town of intellectuals for another that is full of wars is a treasure and vice-versa.

The products capable of trading in hakar-yat is incredible, Spices, fruits with incredible effects, minerals with capacities that would ridicule the supposed "Best materials in the galaxy". It is for this type of thing that there is still a kind of competence between species to see who invents some way of not being trapped on the planet

## History

### Origin

Created as an experiment on the influence of the ether on reptilian beings from their land (particularly from the sphere known as Urth) and as a force capable of resisting and combating chaos.

This resulted in the creation of the hakin, a species of reptilian humanoids that hatched from underground structures drenched in mana, which were used as guinea pigs by several of the older reptile-like races along with the other species of hakkar-yat.
