Description
Buugresi, also known as "Bugbears," "Beastmen," and "Mongrelfolk" are an intelligent bipedal mammalian race found across planet Haven. The Buugresi are a member of the Edian Races, and are often regarded as the "black sheep" of their racial group, as the Buugresi are the most sparse and desperate of the Edian, making them a fairly rare sight across the world, as their population is far outshined by that of their sister-races. Due to their rarity, Buugresi are not often seen by members of most other races, and many of the other Edian Races remain totally unaware that they share in common ancestry with that of the Mongrelfolk, oftentimes mistaking them as a member of other racial groups such as the Lunalin Races, or as the fairly similar looking Ursalin Races. As well, their low number and relative obscurity has prevented the Buugresi from holding large sway in the course of world history and system of power, save for a few choice examples.
The name "Buugresi" translates from the ancient Edian word meaning the "Changed-Ones," as the Buugresi came about from several isolated Edian tribes and societies which retreated from the main Edian Empire, and instead chose to exist within the collective wilds of the world. Collectively, these sparse Edian societies all held the Divine of the forest and animals, Galaphon, as their chief deity, Forming their tribal settlements around the many Beast Totems which dotted across the world, erected by Galaphon's followers as monuments to their goddess. These Edia would then elect to change themselves to be in a more bestial nature, in order to reach a deeper connection to that of their goddess. Using alternation magics on the Totems themselves, they would change themselves and their kin into a bestial form, and their descendants would eventually lead to the modern-day Buugresi seen today.
As a consequence of their low population, Buugresi the world over have been given both a near-mythical status, and a great deal of mistrust by the wider Edian population. A commonly held belief by most is that the Beastmen are either not of Edian blood, and or are a perversion of it, leading to wide spread revulsion and exile from Edian communities. As such, much of the Buugresi population has rejected their Edian heritage, choosing instead to either join other racial communities, or remain isolated from the greater world at large, further contributing to their rarity amongst the known world.
Biology
Appearance
The baseline physical appearance of the Buugresi is as if someone had taken various different races of the world, only to combine them into a singular being. As such, the Buugresi are universally very easy to identify, holding the most unique physical features of any Edian race. Typically, a Buugresi will possess a large and tall stature, standing at an average height of around seven feet, (2.1 meters) and an average weight of five hundred and sixty pounds. (254 kilograms) Complied with this tall stature, the Buugresi will often possess a well-toned and muscular frame, further adding onto the great body weights they often have. These massive bodies were specially developed to allow the Buugresi to operate as a fierce, unwavering bestial hunter, able to hunt down any would be prey neigh indefinitely, and shred them apart with their extreme strength once they are captured.
Covering the body of the Buugresi is a several layers of thick fur coatings, the level and thickness of which varying depending on the individual Buugresi, though most commonly, collective Buugresi across the world will have noticeably long and fluffed out fur coats. The colors in which this fur can adopt vary quite heavily, from faded browns and blacks, to vibrant whites. and even sometimes deep navy blues. While obscured by their fur coatings, the skin of the Buugresi is extremely tough, often hardened over through thick layers of calluses.
