Elves are not actually aloof. They are actually extremely family-based and insular, and often intermarry inside their families, making them uncomfortable around those not of their family. Therefore, they shield themselves behind pretended aloofness and coldness until they are comfortable in others' company.

Rakda-These goatlike animals, who have shaggy coats and layers of scales, are good retainers of water. They are close relatives of Suppoki. Their meat is considered a delicacy in many countries. No desert tribesman leaves his settlement without a Rakda. |

Suppoki-These creatures are desert animals that are much like huge, quadripedal sloths. They have a hide made of heavy scales to keep out gritting sand, and over that, a thick coat of fur. During sandstorms, and when they sleep, Suppoki bed down in the sand, covering themselves up until they are miniature dunes. Suppoki derive what sustenance they can from water sinks, dew, and underground insects. Suppoki are often ridden by desert tribesmen. They are stubborn and slow, but are often the difference between life and death out on the sands. |

There is a race of beings that have endless lifespans. Because of their eternal existence, the only forms of time which they understand are being and non-being. They do not understand words or ideas such as past, future, present, yesterday, today, tommorow, then, now, when, until, ect. They do understand yes, no, live, die, on, off, there, not there, existent, non-existent, ect.
