Caedan Races

Summary
Niori are a race similar to that of a dryad, yet they work a bit differently and vary differently. Niori are born of biomes, no one really knows how they come into existence, and none have been recorded to occur naturally in Rathnir. Their appearances and mannerisms vary based on which biome they are born of, there are even sub-races within the sub-races. A Niori can be a Niori, a flower forest niori, and a white tulip Niori. Generally the sunnier biome Niori are more cheery and optimistic, while colder or dryer Niori are more pessimistic, though there is also a great deal of individualism, it's not too unusual to see a cheery badlands Niori. A Niori will generally have features like a specific plant growing from their heads, and have a slight hue in their skin tone and a more prominent hue in their hair. They are able to breed with humans, which produce a Keita. No Niori have been spotted in Rathnir.

Traits

Summary
Keita are the offspring of humans and Niori, and are capable of reproduction with Humans, Niori, and other Keita. Due to the humans of the original Caeda being isolated from other races, they often mingled with bands of Niori, occasionally integrating said bands into the Caeda people. Because of this extremely close contact, within generations pure humans among the Caeda were rare, and pure Niori were impossible to find. The Keita generally have more human features than Niori, but still often have oddities like very faint hues in skin tone and hair, as well as preference to sunlight. Keita can range from mostly human to mostly Niori or somewhere in between, making for a lot of genetic diversity.
