  Blood Blood is black.

  Fur Their fur is similar to that of a Chinchilla. It is plush and very soft to the touch. Each clan differs in fur length but the feel of the fur remains the same.

  Horns A romahs horns are made up of crystalized concentrated magic. It is their magical essence in a sense. Romah were created from magic, so it is within them. Each and every one. Those who pocess horns contain the most purest form of this magic. Horns are for Uncommon and up. No Common bred Romah will have horns.

  Teeth Teeth. Much like a Raccoon and Lemur. They have both enlarged canines as well as incisors.

  Claws Retractable Claws.

  Death When a Romah dies their body turns to an ash like substance, only their horns left behind.

  Mobility -Ranged from statuesque posture, standing straight up, to slightly slumped. -They do not like to sit, when they do they do not full sit, instead they 'squat' in a sense where their rear end does not touch the ground and their feet remain flat or on the balls of their feet. -Prefer to leap/jump as apposed to walking. -will go out of their way to jump from tree to tree instead of walking.

  Eye Sight -Can see in the dark, their eyes have a glow in the darkness. -Can sense temperature in the dark, rather than seeing actual figured with details. -Daytime eye sight Is average.

  Tails Tails are prehensile. Though fluffy, can coil around and hold anything thicker than the actual appendage (minus the fur). At the tip of the tail stores the Romah's scent gland. Coiling ones tail around another is a sign of endearment, longing, love, affection. Romah will drag their tails across the trunks of trees as they move to 'mark their territory'.

  Ears Round in appearence. Think Chinchilla or Red Panda.. Shape can vary slightly. Sleek with minimal fur/fluff, average fur length with a tuft at the end, to extra fluffy.

  Genitalia Male - Human-esque in appearance, although balls are housed on the inside of their bodies. Female - Human-esque in appearance. Two Breasts. Nipple protrude out (flesh, not fur on areola or nipple). Fur gets significantly shorted along outter lips of female reproductive organ, gradually shifting to fur-less and fleshy towards the inner lips.

  Maturity -Full physical Maturity is reached at age 20. Ageing process slows to a near halt at age 25 Ageing does not progress again, and show signs of aging, until the age of 200.

  Abilities

  Telepathy "Empath" Can feel others emotions. "Telepath" Can hear others thoughts. But can not communicate through thought. "Telepathic" Can communicate with others through thought.

  Telekenesis Can move objects with their mind.

  Elementalist "Manipulation" Can not commune with the element(s). Can only manipulate and bend the element to their will. When used has a 50/50 chance of being successful. Without a true connection the element does not always cooperate. When it is over used it is less likely to work successfully. "Sacredist" can communicate with as well as feel the spiritual energy of an element. Once a connection is made, a companionship can be formed. It is only then that the element is bound and will do anything for their Romah. A connection is not always easy to be made. It can start as coaxing plant to grow faster or stronger, but slowly. A Romah with this skill advanced to expert are damn near untouchable. Examples of Sacredist Examples: Earth - could grow an entire treeline (wall) Air - could steal the air from someones lungs Water - command a tsunami Fire - engulf entire forests They can be deadly or a gift. It all depends on the Romah.

  
  

  Pure Blood

  
  Limited to 3 in the entire Romah Species. Only 1 (One) Claimed/known. This will be an ability one will have to apply for.
  
  This is highly rare. So much so there are no known Romah to contain this ability.
  To be one of 'Pure Blood' means the following:
  The Romah in question contains not one, not two, but all abilities of the Romah to some extent. Some will be stronger than others. These Romah will also possess special, and unavailable abilities, unique to the Romah. These Romah are not limited to element.

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  -In Depth-
  Romah, when they reproduce, lay eggs three months after conception. Three months later that egg then hatches into a baby Romah(s). The egg needs no special attention before hatching, it will hatch on its own whether it is surrounded by loved ones, strangers or no one at all. The only time a Romah's egg will not hatch is if it is a dud, which is a rare occurrence, or the egg is placed in a container that restricts it from hatching. In this instance when the egg was released from its container it would

  
  

  Exotic

  
  A few aspects that would make a Romah an exotic within their species would be the following: Dual tone markings, bi-color eyes (left being blue and right being brown for example), as well as a Natural ability.
  Natural ability is the ability to not only pocess but control an advanced ability of the Romah from hatch.

  Captivity

  
  Due to their fur texture, their beautiful marking patterns, and their horns (as well as what their horns are made up of) the Romah that have ventured from their world, although not all, have been capture/enslaved for these reasons. The Romah are considered an exotic species within the slave trade. To own one marks their owner of high rank/great wealth.
  A Romah born into captivity/slavery would know nothing of their abilities or their species culture. They would be unable to reproduce outside of their species. Another reason for their capture and put into slavery, females being unable to reproduce offspring from any other species make them an idea pleasure slave.
