Owains

Owains are a fictional species from the world of Eldoria, first appearing in the tabletop role-playing game "Chronicles of Eldoria". They are described as bipedal, reptilian humanoids with a distinctive crest running along their heads and down their spines. Their skin coloration varies, often ranging from earthy browns and greens to more vibrant blues and reds, depending on their native habitat. Owains possess keen eyesight and a flexible, prehensile tail that aids them in balance and can be used for grasping objects.

In the lore of Eldoria, Owains are known for their adaptability and often inhabit diverse environments, from dense jungles to rocky deserts. They are generally depicted as a solitary or small-clan dwelling species, valuing self-sufficiency and a deep connection to the natural world. Their society is often portrayed as tribal, with a strong emphasis on oral traditions and respect for elders. While not inherently aggressive, Owains are fiercely protective of their territory and will defend themselves and their kin with surprising ferocity. Their diet is omnivorous, consisting of plants, insects, and small game. They are also known for their rudimentary tool-making skills, utilizing natural resources to craft simple weapons and implements. Their cultural practices are often tied to lunar cycles and seasonal changes, reflecting their animistic beliefs.
