T'Arians

The T'Arians
(extinct) Lirizi- the royal bloodline, slaughtered in the attempt to hold the empire together; once the only T'Arians able to commune with the gods and act as clerics; expansive wings of ethereal energy, shaped into feathery forms {city: Lir}

Taisie- {guardians of the royal bloodline} known for combat prowess and flexibility in adjusting said prowess (cannot commit suicide- self-inflicted wounds heal instantly- also true for wounds inflicted with consent); wings draconic in appearance, but covered with billions of miniscule feathers {city: T'ais}

Dalathain- a bloodline with psionic ability that cannot be touched by any but their mates lest their abilities be tainted; fragile wings, often likened to an insect's {city: Daltha}

Zakiyiana- a bloodline of bards who use their wings to create sound; wings always a single, solid shade and easily damaged {city: Zakyiil}

Rikal- a bloodline able to fly due to telekinetic ability; usually sorcerers/wizards- highly tempermental and usually align with a single element; only bloodline able to mate without assistance- exceptionally high status due to their necessity to procreate; wings of ethereal energy {city: Ryki}

Estair- a bloodline of shadowalkers and assassins; emotionless and icy, they find delight only in a well-handled assassination. Specializing in the use of poisons, they were greatly feared in the T'Arian empire; wingless (wings are removed at birth: no information exists as to the appearance of the wings) -possess spade-tipped tails trained to be as useful as hands{city: E'tairae}

Siltai- a bloodline of necromancers; cold to the touch, they are avoided on principle by any non-T'Arian. With their abilities, none dare raise a hand to them, but they are rarely permitted to linger within casual areas; black feathered wings {city: Sil}

Kynatl- a bloodline of servants, commonly sold as slaves; solid-coloured leathery wings {no city- raised in all}
