Tyogyan

They resemble large ants or wingless bees with colorful chitin shells of many colors (depending on sex, ethnicity, and caste). Like the Glokrii, they have a society divided by caste, but unlike them the differences between the castes are small. They are one of Iuldar’s smallest races, and yet can match most Human-sized races in strength. They typically walk on their four hindmost legs and manipulate objects with their front legs and mandibles. They do not speak, but communicate with a language made of clicks, antenna waves, and pheromones. They are capable of understanding spoken language. The Tyogyans had had mixed relationships with the multitude of races living on Katar-Kunosht throughout history. Many times they’ve been used for slave labor. Tyogyans are typically placid, but gods help us all when they swarm. It’s a miniature apocalypse. However, they never last long, and when they’re over, the greater percentage of Tyogyans in the land tend to be dead. Stowaways have established colonies on continents as far away as Caslasta and Kai-Hu.
