Darshi

## Description

The dreaded three faces horse monster of the land is what many
call the Darshi as they travel the land often clashing with anything
they see as weaker then them. The Darshi are six arm giants race with a lower horse half of there body. They have three different heads of different animals a goat, panther, and eagle.

## Abilities

Amazing eyesight- they can see far and wide and possess natural night vision.

Indestructible teeth- there teeth are said to be quite tough and able to chew through most material.

Cat like reflective- there reflex is consider amazing as they can response to things faster then most races.

## Personality

Darshi are very violent in nature seeing strength as all that matters but are willing to accept it in different forms as they don't quite care if it physical or not.

They tend to view people in rather blanket terms and refuse to treat a individual of a race they deem weak kindly unless they prove there strength to them but even then that only get you a little bit of respect.

They are natural hunters who are ruthless in the pursuit of prey but are prideful in a way that they won't hunt a race that earns there respect not even when starving and will reluctantly trade with them.

The Darshi have no problem allowing others to join there people as long as they can prove not only there strength but there skill as a hunter and other skills that could be offer to the race in some useful way especially magic as they lack there own.

Most Darshi believe it important to take a stalk and judge approach to other races and since they can see over a long distance to watch potential prey most wouldn't notice being stalk by them and judge over a ridiculous distance. Should they judge you a race of some sort and not a animal they'll usually spare you a rather violent visit from them.

in the mind of the Darshi most of nearly everything is prey just waiting to die and be consume and this extends to people but they try not to act on that should they need other for something.

## Lifecycle

The Darshi live for 80 years and when they breed they do so with multiple partners. The child birth process is the same as a horse with the child coming out a lot smaller then the parents by a large differences in size. They grow bigger as time goes on until they reach the same giant size as there parents at age 60.

out of the three heads there born with only the middle cat head develops eyes first when there born and turn ten with the eagle following after in there twenty and finally the goat at thirty years old. There teeth however grow much faster then there eyes as all three heads gain there teeth a mere two years before the cat eyes grow in.

## Diet

The Darshi are omnivores but prefer meat mostly as they believe eating the beast of the land gives one strength and power.

## Combat

The Darshi wield six double sided axes with there arms to cleave any threats to death and will often use there horse body to there advantage by trampling and kicking the enemies. When in serious fight or war they switch to use of shield and lances as they use Blitzkriegtactics where they surprise the enemy and hit them hard and fast charging in for quick kill of many as possible before pulling back a bit to let other Darshi come in with axes to clean up the rest. Should things go bad they will retreat by forming a large shield wall and then charge the enemy at full speed maintaining the wall as best they can in order to break through them and retreat while trampling as many people as possible on the way out.

## Societies

The Darshi live in massive Tents made out of multiple animal skins and bones. They live a nomadic life never settling in one place for too long as they are always on the look out for more prey and a decent challenge to hunt which keep them going but most of the time they move around is due to a lack of challenge then lacking prey as they tend to be quite careful with how much they hunt and while it not something most Darshi would mention in there culture as they find it a bit demeaning they do raise animals to eat in order to not accidentally wipe out a whole species of animals as they fear this may anger the spirits of the animal cause they took the challenge of the hunt too far and now must suffer some divine consequences.

The Darshi have a chieftain who earns there spot by being the strongest Darshi and by bring back poof of a dangerous hunt or by being the prey in a hunt by the whole tribe and surviving until next sunrise.

The Darshi can learn other languages quickly as a benefit of having three heads to work this but do have there own language of mostly animal noises. They also have a written form of there language which is mostly a series of lines and circles mix together and different variations. The Darshi have no personal gods of there own but do believe in animal spirits and the spirits of there ancestor as great spiritual beings that have some effect on the natural world around them.

They have dedicated holy days to certain animals where they pay tribute with a hunt of that specific creature and a feast.

## History

The Darshi do not know how they were born but some believe it was the will of nature that they be born into the world to chase the great hunt and conquer the land. The Darshi long ago use Tibenours as there stomping ground and it there they met the walio who they saw as nothing more then prey and have been hunting them for sport for years along with the Ra as they saw there snake like appearance and assume them to be a animal as well. It wasn't until they found humans and stalk them that they realize a slight error on there part as the humans seem too different in how they act to be animals and the Darshi saw some similarity in how they act which led them to question if everything is really a animal for them to hunt. This question later led them to recognizing the Ra as a sentient race something that never cross there minds before as they just assume they were prey. Sadly the Darshi are not one to admit mistake and had already been at war with the Ra for three years by that point so they just kept going with there war but pull out more and more of there active presence in order to make a stalemate in hopes that eventually both side will agree to a ceasefire. This work eventually as both side stop warring with each other but there is still a lot of heated anger between the two races and some pockets of Ra and Darshi have never stop fighting even to this very day.

## Trivia

The Darshi were made back at turn one and I forget to put them in for several weeks now but there here now I guess.
