Shikenans

Race: Beastfolk Nation(s): Birumiaka

Physical Traits

Resemble ocelots or leopards. Descended from the Fifth Faunan King, Gabo. They inherited his small, half-oval ears on top of the head. Hair is normally leopard-patterned with an orange-brown or yellowish base and black details; eyes are light brown. They have a long, thin tail attached at the tailbone with the same patterning as the hair.

Traditional clothing features intricate designs. Men wear a robe-like shirt with straight, wide sleeves on a typically black, white, brown, or maroon background, with symbolic patterns and characters along the edges and sleeve endings in contrasting colors, tucked into beige pants. Women wear a similar but brighter top tucked into a long skirt in neutral tones, with the designs patterned throughout the fabric. Both genders wear similar closed-toed shoes with a slightly raised heel for women. Body piercings are extremely common for all genders; tattoos of organics mixed with Birumiakese proverbs and sayings are also widespread, more so for men.
