Zin’yah

Appearance
The average member of this race has a stocky build and is extremely short. They have skin covered in white, or brightly brown coloured scales. They have tabby-like stripes on their arms and legs, and their body is reminiscent of that of a bi-pedal lizard. Their eyes come in many colours and variations, however an icy-blue colour seems to be most common amonst them. They wear simple clothing and very little jewellery. The females are bigger and stronger than the males. Neither of them cover up much.

Behaviour
They are often optimistic and they are well-known for their music. They tend to keep to themselves, but are still wary of other races.

Abilities
They are well-adapted to a warm climate. Due to their strong affinity to instruments and music, their hearing is incredibly sensitive. The Zin’yah are able to even pick out the vaguest of sounds, making them attentive of their surroundings.

Culture
Their culture names everyone with two syllables, separated by an apostrophe. They adapted this from The Ancients, and share their love of music. They come from a region that is very rocky and barren. They live in crevices and caves. Resources are scarce and must be rationed carefully. They value music so much, as it only requires the resources to make instruments, and then create sound. Paints and Jewellery require resources they simply cannot spare.

History
The Zin'yah are a race not as old as the Dupril or Ekios, but not as new to the world of Deus as the Corvid or Teth'ya. Their origin as a species plays heavily in their culture, as their beginnings play a heavy part in their religion.

Whether those events are true or not, they have a history beyond it as well. After their release from Zin, they became a client race of the Ancient (And eventually Gyndrillian) empires. They were allowed their religion in the land of Drillia, as it was considered a more focused, less encompassing form of worshiping The Ancients.
