Albarum

Albarum
The Albarum believe magic flows through and connects everything, in natural ebbs and flows. This philosophy means as a culture, they tend to be non-confrontational, believing hardships and prosperity come in cycles, and hard times are something to be endured. One has to wonder, though, if this passive approach to the threats facing them is truly serving them anymore, as threats close in upon them and their numbers dwindle.

Albarum live in covens of less than 100 individuals. To many other species, it can be difficult to tell these individuals apart, as their faces are a smooth surface of feathers and lack distinctive features. Additionally, this also makes them seem quite androgenous to other races. Their eyes take up much of their facial region, and are often vibrantly colored with large pupils suited to seeing in dim or dark light. The rest of their bodies are also feathered, typically in creams and browns. They never quite reach 6 feet in height.

The Albarum hold magical prowess in high value, especially if that magic is used to benefit the community.

Albarum mouths and tongues are rigid, making traditional speech impossible, instead they have developed the capacity to speak to others through telepathy. Albarum marriages are romantic in nature and often life-long, and it is companionship that is valued more than reproduction.
