Yosta-Maru

Description:

Yosta-Maru (or Maru, for short) are a race of winged humanoid avians native to remote tropical locales and high-peaked mountain ranges. The Maru are a peaceful folk, spending most days hunting for small game, harvesting native fruits and berries, or playing tag amid the thermal updrafts above the jungle floor. By night, they gather and rehearse the ancient dance by which all Maru may learn to summon air elementals. In this way, they pass their traditions along to young Maru and preserve their best defense against invaders.
