Uongo-mijusi

A reptilian looking race, with unique mental and physical altering capacity's

Physical Description

Hibernation and Insomnia

Uongo-mijusi, body's only need to sleep for a 3-4 month period each year - otherwise always awake. During the sleep period, they can only be awakened if their life is being threatened. For one week, halfway through this period, uongo-mijusi become sleepless. This allows them to feed and make sure that there hibernation spot is still safe. But are otherwise helpless during their sleep period.

Uongo-mijusi can delay their sleep period by 2 weeks; but are fatigued until they sleep, and the sleep lasts an additional 3 weeks. If the uongo-mijusi does not sleep after the delay, he will need to make a Fort save of (DC 30 +5 each day(culminates), -1 per 3HD, -1 per 5 autohypnosis skill modifiers) each day - or die! If the uongo-mijusi passes the save, it becomes disabled for the rest of the day (cannot negate).

While uongo-mijusi minds need to only meditate for 1 hour per day. When meditating, uongo-mijusi are blinded, and deafened. Spells and powers per day are reset after meditation. Uongo-mijusi can delay this, but become shaken after 24 hours without meditation, confused after 30 hours, and Nauseated after 36.

External Anatomy

Uongo-mijusis, are about 5' 6", and at first appear very reptilian, becouse their forked tongues, black serpentine hair, and green-shelled body's. But are in fact more mammalian than reptilian.

Internal Anatomy

The only internal thing that emulates uongo-mijusis as reptilian, is the fact that they lay eggs. Usually having 3-5 eggs, that hatch during there parents sleep period. The saying: "I'd rather feed an army, than one uongo-mijusis after its sleep period"; emulates the hatchlings need to stay away form there parents. Uongo-mijusi, will not give a second thought to eating straggling hatchlings, after their sleep.

To get out of tight spots, uongo-mijusis can speed up their hearts to 3 times its normal rate. They can also slow there heart beat down by half.

Relations

Due to there strange sleeping habits they tend to separate themselves from other races. This does not mean that they don't get along (if anything its the contrary) - just that there daily habits are vastly different. They continuously urn for entertainment during there sleepless months - so good relations with other races is utterly necessary.

Lands

Wetness, City's (dense populations - for security)

Alignment

Most uongo-mijusi, are Lawful Good, as to protect themselves during their sleep period. But, as to blend into a society, they have been known to be Chaotic or Evil.

Religion

Spirit (will expand just putting points)

Language

While uongo-mijusis do not have a native language, they emanate emotions through different odours. While this makes them terrible poker players, it also plays as a type of body language.
