Enivi Herds

Keepers of Eniv currently has 4 available clans to join. Each clan has it's own backstory and freely available traits. In the event of Enivi breeding between clans, the player has the choice of which clan the "kid" will take after.

## The Wise Lunaesi

   These Enivi are known for their quick-wit and inquisitive nature. The smallest of the three clans, the Lunaesi spend much of their time in contemplation and study. Lunaesi strive for exploration and discovery of the world around them.

They seek explanation and strive to understand all things magical and otherwise. They believe this is the best way to honor the deity Lunae. Best known for their cartography skills, they've aided other clans with maps, charts, calendars, and advice for travel. While they generally keep to themselves, they have a deep sense of the world around them, and are always willing to help another clan in need.

#### Physical Appearance

Enivi from the Lunaesi are the smallest of the four clans. They have broad, short builds and curved faces and horns. Traditionally, they sport fluffy manes around their necks, and long feathering along their legs, though it's not uncommon for a Lunaesi to lack these traits as well. Like most Enivi, the Lunaesi carry their souls between their horns.

## The Magical Vespiri

The Vesperi are silent and introspective.

   These illusive Enivi are known as the oracles of their people and are best known for their foresight and as caretakers of those who have passed. They live mostly secluded lives, keeping to their own clan and holding tightly to ancient tradition. Although they are often viewed as unapproachable by the other clans, the Vesperi are compassionate and imaginative.

They've created great works of art, literature, and music in the Enivin culture and often touch the very souls of others with their craft. They also have a deep connection to the Spirit Realm and are charged with aiding the souls of all Enivi after death. The Vesperi are often called to the side of gravely ill or fatally injured Enivi to help them ready for "the long journey". Grim as it may sound, the Vesperi are both revered and feared due to their loyalty to the deity Vesperum.

#### Physical Appearance

The Vespiri generally have long legs and sleek builds. Their horns are normally twisted skyward in a spiral. As with other Enivi, the soul of all Vespiri are carried just above their heads.

## The Brave Ortusi

    The Ortusi are strong and prideful.

These Enivi are normally of larger build and greater physical strength. Their clan focuses primarily on farming and trade with neighboring pockets of Enivin clans. They believe firmly in honoring Ortus, the deity who brought light and warmth to the world. In their society, the best way to do this is by making the most of the daylight given to them. This instills within their society a powerful work ethic and unwavering devotion to their clan.

Their intimidating size often leads these Enivi to become warriors, who fight back against the encroaching Dark Forest.

#### Physical Appearance

Ortusi are the largest and broadest of the Enivi. Their long, curved necks and strong legs help them to cultivate farmland and form an effective guard. As with most Enivi, the souls of the Ortusi hover just above their heads.

## The Elusive Druaesi

    Druaesi are calm and secluded Enivi who often go out of their way to avoid contact with outside clans. Only recently discovered by the other clans, the Druaesi are still very much a mystery. Their homes, like their bodies, are deeply connected to the Dark Forest in which they live. With houses carved into trees and hillsides, many travelers have unknowingly walked through Druaesi villages and were none the wiser. While little is known about this clan, the Druaesi leader, Rowan, seems happy to share information about his clan in exchange for information of the outside world.

#### Physical Appearance

The Druaesi are one of the least understood of the Enivi. Their forms seem to be made entirely of twisted foliage and living plants. These forms differ Druaesi to Druaesi, depending upon the climate and plant life. Druaesi are the only Enivi to effectively carry their souls within themselves, in a hollowed-out area of the neck or chest.
