Homebrew Cavori Species Details

The Cavori are native to the Cavori Mountains and very rarely travel outside of the region, and have never been seen in Edavel.  They are well built and usually very tall; an adult can reach between 6"5' and 7"10. They are distinguishable by their large rough horns, strong facial features, muscular frames and pointed ears. Some say they are descendants of Tieflings and Orcs, but their true origin is unknown. The Cavori are a proud group of people that now co-exist as one clan as historically they had been at war with one another until they realised that fighting amongst themselves was not proving anything to anybody. Although welcoming to travellers, they are less than kind to those who outstay their welcome. They have claim to a breed of Mount called, Reitgarden Cobs and only the Cavori have been able to create bonds with them. If a bond is forced then a Reitgarden Cob will become depressed and catatonic.
