Saurot (Zrankas-Saurot)

Silver matte-skinned, elf-like humanoids with razorblade-like teeth

None

Saurots have slender forms and can reach heights of nearly seven feet,
resulting in lean and lanky appearances. Their physique varies from skeletal
thin to curvaceous. Their skin is distinct in that is completely matte in
dull, washed out silver and grey hues. This skin is semi-light sensitive and
almost seems to absorb light reflected on it on the matte surface. There is
a distinct lack of any facial hair growth (No eyebrows, lashes, mustaches,
or beards). They have high hair lines from which the naturally wavy or even
curly hair grows in thick locks of any shade of grey between white and
black. It is common for many to have sharp, predatory features and bone
structure, as a rule of the race. This can vary widely in how the features
come together in term of beauty. They tend to prefer raw or fresh meat in
their diet. However, they have been known to 'drain' the color and vibrancy
from the food they consume- like berries and other fruit and vegetables as
well. (There are rumor, that they can do this to the living, but it has not
been proven to be true.) Their razor sharp teeth absorbing the nutrients
from them in the form of color- leaving them depleted. These teeth are razor
sharp like blades- not pointed like fangs, but rather a sharp line. Like
their opposite, the Ambar-Nelath, they have retractable wings they can
shapeshift with.

A unique talent of the Saurots is the natural knack of torture (physical
and mental) and a wide imagination in the area. They can be extremely regal
in appearance and often carry an air of dominant superiority in their wake.
There is evidence that saurots are keen learners with incredible intellect.
They turn this sharp minded nature to a variety of purposes. While some may
excel in physical professions such as rogues, assassins and such, they are
more likely to be naturally gifted in the professions requiring mental
skills and challenges.

The theory is that these beings are a tribute to the Goddess Zranic and the
Goddess Kasim, or as some rumors suggest, their own creation to come into
being at the time they did. What is known is that the Zrankas-Saurot came
into being at the end of the last C.H.E.S.S. game held across several
continents. This game takes place every 888 years and always tends to come
with a great change. The last game brought into being two races, the
Zrankas-Saurot and their mirrored cousin the Ambar-Nelath. (NOTE The
Ambar-Nelath and Zrankas-Saurot races are a result of a global role-play
storyline. For more information, seek the tome titled C.H.E.S.S.)

They tend toward elvish style names and most have strong pride in family
bonds and trace their lineage back through to their origin at the C.H.E.S.S.
game.

They prefer places away from the light, but also enjoy social settings and
cities.

They blend into the structure of the cities where the are from.
