Malachites

The Malachites are a humanoid race of hunters and sports-focused people most common in the Qihirbat region and the general area of Shomerton and Flagstaff in the Malachite Haniqdere, Though could also be found in areas near solaris. Most Malachites consider animal farming for meat an act that should be shamed for, In most situations the Malachites think of themselves as superior to the meat farming races. Instead of farming for meat they go on hunting trips throughout the region.

Their name originates from an old mercenary group that was housed in the Kingdom of Kough named the Viridian Order that was hired throughout the different Malachite wars and were hired by other nations aswell. The order used to be the only interaction between the Malachite race and the rest of the world and as such got the name "Malachites" after the green armor they wore that was made out of Malachite Steel. The order continued to operate today in Shomerton under the rule of Fassiel.

## History (Native nations and city states)

Tracing back to the first recorded signs of civilizations the Malachites were made out of local tribes in the Qihirbat region that had little to no interaction between each other. Though, commonly the tribes would come together to host a hunting competition between them to see who's the strongest of them. At their mid-early history they have started to form towns like Shachuna where they started to become more modern-like civilization. Still not allowing meat farms, Though allowing the farming of sheep for wool.

In -104MC the Malachite city states Penos (Today knows as Shomerton) and Aquados united into the Kough Kingdom which used to be known as the first Malachite kingdom. Following the creation of the Kough Kingdom the bordering city state of Flagstaff had decided to reform and become the Malachite Kingdom of Vaolia, better known internationally as the Crown of Vaolia.

The two kingdoms were rival powers in the Malachite world and essentially sparked the Malachite kingdom era.

In the year -54MC the Malachite kingdom of Qihirbat and the Cultzal kingdom of Whixtonite have formed in the northern-most areas of modern Malachite.

By 0MC (Malachite Count, Which started at the forming of the Malachite Haniqdere) the Qihirbat Kingdom had united with the nearby Kingdom of Whixtonite into a united nation, The Malachite Haniqdere, to create a buffer zone between the neighboring tribes and the rest of the aggressive malachite kingdoms

In the year of 17MC the Crown of Vaolia has annexed the Kingdom of Kough and had entered a state of war with the northern Malachite Haniqdere.

In the year 20MC the crown of Vaolia has lost the war to the Malachite Haniqdere in the battle of Penos, which has now been named to Shomerton.

## Appearence

The Malachites are some of the most blending races in Iaddithis, Looking generic with no real difference other than eye color and their elf-like ears.

There is a rare condition among Malachites that causes them to grow a dragon-like tail on their back. This condition is extremely rare and there are only 6 recorded cases of them, one of them being Sappius Helechite which is the emperor of Malachite

Though, the Malachites tend to wear short clothing which differentiate them from the rest of the races. The reason for their clothing's design is that the Malachites rather wear short clothes as they spend most of their time out hunting animals or doing various sports like feet racing, mountain climbing and swimming.

The bodies of the male Malachites are usually bigger than the average humanoid-race in Iaddithis due to evolution making their body stronger in order for the Malachites to go on longer hunting sessions .
