This page is of questionable balance. Reason: Flat advantage on persuasion, advantage somehow on the first turn in combat? Some of the bloodlines are just ASI, which is kind of strange, but less problematic than the earlier mentioned.

Felkie[edit]
"Felkie are the cutest and friendliest race on Istra. If they weren't so addicted to petting, they would have conquered the world"
-Fidondra, canis ranger.
Crushingly Cute![edit]
Felkie are about 3 feet tall. They superficially resemble a kitten walking on 2 legs, only maybe more humanoid. They are often a bit round and about 40% of their height is made up by their heads. They have the fluffiest tail imaginabe, but hate to have them touched. But the most awe-inspiringly cute part of all their features is their eyes. They resemble a kitten's eyes, but slightly larger and indescribably cute. They have several "breeds" or families, and patterns including:
Maine Coon: These Felkie are known for their savage nature and wild appearance. They have Long fur on their heads, striped fur, and long bushy tails.
Abyssinian: these fun loving Felkie have light brown fur, Short hair, and large green green eyes.
Forest: Mysterious Felkie with white and brown spots and large yellow eyes. They have innate druidic abilities, and some believe that they have an alliance with the fey.
Persian: Grumpy know it alls with white poofy fur. Their eyes are either blue, green, or both.
Bombay: Black Felkie with ominous yellow eyes. They have struck a pact with an entity that gives them power over luck at the price of a piece of their life forces.
Sphynx: Hairless Felkie, easily angered by any remarks on their baldness, and generally grumpy. They live in the desert lands where they are worshipped as gods.
Fold: Bushy brown fur and portly, with slanted eyes and folded ears. Folds are driven for success. they are always looking for ways to prove and test themselves, and never give up.
Shorthair: White and gray furred with enormous hazel eyes, These Felkie are the aristocratic leaders of the race. Sadly, they are easily distracted by yarn and bells. They always strike the killing blow, always lead the charge, and always get the last word.
Blue: Robbed of their throne by Leo Kelldin, the Blues hold no alliance to anyone and find work as thieves and con artists. They are lithe and have fur the color of the sky before it rains.
Saimeese: White with black on their paws that looks like gloves and black mask like marks on their faces.
And many others, like Bengals and Angora.
The Sunrock Alliance[edit]
Felkie were created by fey as company and pets from ordinary cats. Felkie were at first content to be pets of fey beings, until Loki Bella, The first Shorthair Kingleaf, proposed that they be promoted to knights of they fey. They trained harder than any other soldier the fey had ever known. Soon their first battle came when an army of orcs tried to invade the feywild. They lost the battle disastrously causing the destruction of much of the fey forests, and were exiled. Now that they were no longer protected by the fey, they had to fend for themselves. The many clans banded together and formed the sunrock alliance. At first, the clans were all equals... Until Leo Kelldin. This Felkie was a Shorthair Kingleaf who believed that they needed a ruler, and he should be their king. And he was by no means alone! in fact, hundreds of felkie wanted to be a king. The disagreement on who ought to be king escalated until Leo declared that whoever could best him in single combat would claim the throne. That day he fought about 200 felkie and defeated all of them. Sadly his victory destroyed almost half of the best Felkie warriors, leaving them vulnerable to attack, so they purrr-suaded other kingdoms to be their allies.
On a side note, they became enemies with the Canis not because of an act of aggression, but because the canis did not find them cute.
Gold, Gods, and Glory![edit]
Felkie live by a moral code that (in short) works as follows: Respect your gods and the gods of others, and you will be rewarded by every god. Seek to please and you will be pleased. Earn respect, don't buy it. Eat to live, don't live to eat. And finally, know your place. Those who earn status do it with honor, so do not claim what is not yours! They also follow (in recent years) an unspoken societal code: Follow the king! Wealth is power and power is wealth! If you find no god, be your god! Ask, and your wish will be granted! And finally, don't let others stand if they stand in your way! This second "code" contradicts the old code, so Felkie are taking sides, and a divide is beginning to form.
Felis are fiercely loyal to their clans, often putting their clan members first, or even being downright hostile to outsiders. However, they have a soft spot for humans, and vice versa. The clans overall attitude is determined by an elected clan elder. This ritual election is is overseen at sunrock. These elders answer only to the king, who they pledge their loyalty to. Each felkie clan has a long and proud history that they believe is superior to that of all other clans.
