(This looks neat. I am going to join. I hope my race won't seem to much like a common elf.) Scientific name: Eleious Hangena Common name: Wood Stalker (Sometimes called Elf by humans due to their extreme resemblance to them.) Average Height: 7ft 6in Average Length: 1ft 1in Average Weight: 112 pounds Coloration: Their skin is very pale, sometimes even completely which is very little in some spesimen. The hair on their head can be any color visible to the human eye and the rest of it, which is very little, is which is very little. Their eyes can also be any color, but unlike normal eyes it is a solid color. It is like they have no pupils at all. There is no difference in hair colors between the two genders, however males tend to have darker colors while females have brighter colors. Physical description: They are almost the same as humans. They have a bipedal body with long arms and legs. Their hands have claws at the end of their fingers in place of finger nails that average around 1 inch. Like elves, they have long pointy ears on the sides of their heads. The longer the ears, the stronger the spesimen. The only hair that they don't cover up with clothes is on their head, but they have no facial hair. While they feel almost no shame in being 'in the nude' they still wear clothes as a sign of rank. The more clothes on the person the higher the social rank. Behaviors: Wood Stalkers are built off humans, so they shair most of their behavior. There are some changes though. They mate very commonly because of how fast they mature, it takes 3 years to grow into an adult and the longest they can life is 30 years. They will even try to mate with other beings if it is allowed and accepted with the other partner. They mainly eat plants, but they still eat a few bites of meat from time to time. They pick out a weak, sick, or old member of a group of creatures and wait for it to get separated by hiding in trees or tall grass. Once their prey is away from any danger, they stirke quickly by leaping into the air and landing on it. Afterwards they sink their sharp teeth or claws into their food, most of the time killing it. They share what they can't eat with others and sometimes give meat to others to bond with them. They live in groups that can range from small groups, 5 to 30 members, to large groups, 80 to 150 members. The small groups are easier to live in because the head male is not as hard on the others and does not care who gets the girls. Large groups however are harder to live in because the head male is harder on the others and likes to keep the girls to himself. Some may try to fight the head male to win the right to hang out with the females, but if the challenger loses he is kicked out of the group. Luckily small groups like to let in outcasts and loners to make them feel loved, but there are not that many groups out in the wild so it is rare to come across another group. Wood Stalkers are very social creatures, they can not live alone for a long ammount of time. When looking for a friend or mate, they find a target they like the looks of and stalk them in the day and night, earning their name. Once they are found out they step into sight and look at their target until they get a good reaction. If they are disliked, they make a few sad grunts and walk back into the woods. If they are liked then they are happy. They follow their target and do things based on their reaction. They can range from defending them, helping them learn stuff, and even find food for them. THey mainly speak in clicks, grunts, groans, and shouts, although their intelligence allows them to learn english just by listening to humans for a while. Threat level: 2. They do hunt for food, but mostly small and defenceless creatures. They are quite weak when it comes to combat so they will only attack when their life is on the line. Because of their very social behaviors they will seak out people for friends and mates, they will even accept humans as their own sometimes. Name: Talron. Age: 4 (Adult for a Wood Stalker.) Gender: Male Appearance: Talron is a Wood Stalker, so that means he has pale skin, 1 inch long claws and long pointy ears. Like all Wood Stalkers, he has pale skin, but it is not that pale. In some lightings it even looks normal. His ears are 4 inches long starting from the point, showing off his strength. His eyes are a solid light blue color and his hair is long, dark red and messy. He is a skinny body build and stands at 7ft 8in tall, he is also 1 foot wide. He is not that heavy, only 109 pounds. The only thing covering his body is shorts made of deer skin. Skills: Athletic skills: Talron is very athletic. He can run about 20 mph and jump about 5 feet high. Just think Mario, only fatser running speed and lower jumping hight. The only downside is he needs to eat a lot to use his skils. He can still survive wthout eating for about a month though. Survival Skills: He can survive though almost anything and get out alive. Lack of food? Covered. Acid rain? Acid proof skin baby! Dangerous creature that wants to eat him? Do I need to talk about the running speed again? The only downside is that he can't take that much damage or deal much damage. Weapons: Does his claws count?
