Estola: Crokodan (5e Race)
Crokodan[edit]
Maestro Coraz: "Even though our children choose different paths, we all share a Heart."
Physical Description[edit]
A Crokodan Senda named Iro is known by all Corazon, his exploits are only overshadowed by his wisdom, although no one knows how he obtained it. |
Crokodan are quite similar to humanoid crocodiles, most are taller than humans, their skin is scaly, with hard and rough scales all over the body except from the belly to the lower jaw where these scales are much smoother and more flexible, no less strengthened for that. Its main colors are brown and green, although there are also blue, red, yellow, white and black.
History[edit]
There are few if any records of the history of the Crokodan. In the beginning, the Crokodan were nothing more than a reptilian species, they inhabited an area located in the south of the planet with abundant cold forests, swamps and frozen wastelands. And it could have stayed that way for countless times, yet word-of-mouth paintings and stories tell how Doran, a god known for shaping the world, endowed these creatures with intelligence, guiding them on a path of balance and respect for the nature. The Crokodan, enlightened by Doran's guidance, followed the path he had prepared for them as a token of appreciation for his wisdom.
Society[edit]
Crokodan society is based on discipline, however, not all Crokodan follow the same ideals, that is why there are three Clans, the Claw Clan; of more firm and individualistic ideals, the Fist Clan; Respectful and social and the Palm Clan; Respectful but individualistic.
But there are always those who do not fit into any clan, in this case, there is a central place among the clans called Corazon, in which everyone is accepted regardless of their ideals.
Crokodan Names[edit]
Most Crokodan names come from a poor pronunciation of natural elements: Thus, Air = Aide. Although little by little they have taken names from neighboring civilizations, so names like Lucas, Lian ... are possible. However, they never use the J in their names, instead they use the G.
