Kharraj

The Kharraj looked a bit like small humans with skin ranging from blue-grey to blue, and proportionally longer arms and shorter legs. The Kharraj were consummate seafarers, known as the best shipwrights of Classical Wiiramyl. They were the first to inhabit the lands of Rynho-Byyl, to the west of the Anradi Mountains. The states of the Kharraj Consortium were devastated by the Fourth and Fifth Elf-Sanrhyyk Wars, and started to decline as the Elven state of the Hyylshin Daasfy’rei rose to power. Eventually, a breakaway portion of the Kharraj left the land behind themselves altogether, becoming the completely maritime Mariiti race. The rest of the Kharraj slowly died out. Mariiti resemble humans in most regards, though they have fairly pointed ears which they can swivel around. Their skin is two toned, with a grey-blue to navy blue in the back and limbs and a yellow-tan or light grey belly, throat, and bottom of the face. Their eyes appear to be single tone with a rough texture, but this is a covering over their actual eyes, and if you look closely, you can see their eye’s motion underneath the lid. Mariiti are excellent swimmers and mariners, and most Mariiti only walk on land when their ship is being repaired or to load supplies onto it. Some will even never leave their ships, having other load the supplies and remaining on board during the repairs.
