Catharns

Catharns are a fictional species appearing in the lore of the Elder Scrolls video game series. They are depicted as a nomadic, reptilian race native to the continent of Akavir. Physically, Catharns are described as having scales, claws, and tails, resembling a blend of humanoids and dragons. They are known for their martial prowess and unique culture, which is often portrayed as ancient and somewhat mysterious to outsiders.

The Catharns are divided into several distinct groups, each with their own customs and territories within Akavir. Their history is intertwined with the other races of Akavir, particularly the Tsaesci and the Kamal. While direct interactions with Tamriel are rare, the Catharns are a recurring subject of interest and speculation among scholars and adventurers in the Elder Scrolls universe. Their enigmatic nature and formidable reputation make them a significant element of the wider Elder Scrolls mythology, hinting at unexplored regions and histories within the game world. They are often characterized by a fierce independence and a deep connection to their ancestral lands.
