Igochians

The Igochians, or as they call themselves, the Ryusei-no Hami, meaning "people of the sun" in the common tongue, are a noble and honorable subrace of humans. They originate from the eastern continent of Igochi. Though it is not unusual to see Igochians in other, far-away lands, the majority of their people are still deeply rooted in their continent of origin.

Igochians hail from a land of rolling steppes, majestic mountains, and serene coastal villages, each region contributing uniquely to the Igochian identity and diversity. The Igochians are a people of contrasts—warriors and poets, farmers and scholars, united by a common heritage, their desire to attain perfection in every aspect of their lives, and an unyielding spirit.

Description

Igochians, on average, are similar in size to other humans, though they tend to be slightly shorter. Women in particular often exhibit a leaner physique. Their skin tones span from light brown to pale white, reflecting the diverse environments of their homeland.

The Igochians predominantly have hair that is either black or dark brown, colors as deep and rich as the ink used in their traditional calligraphy. A rare few are born with white hair, a trait that is seen as a divine blessing, marking them as individuals touched by the heavens. This distinctive feature often brings reverence and respect from their peers.

Their eyes are usually dark brown, like the fertile soil of their homeland, but it is not uncommon to find Igochians with lighter brown, grey, or even the rare and mystical purple eyes. These unique eye colors are often celebrated, thought to signify inner strength and wisdom.
