Homebrew Giladal Species Details

Hee-luh-daal

Giladalians

Giladals live in hot areas and a majority of them dislike the cold however some giladals can tolerate the cold. Giladals can live anywhere and they build their houses by digging big holes in the ground with alot of rooms and a roof made of whatever they can find. They make their roofs blend in so they can't easily be spotted. 

Giladals have black scales with orange, pink or red patterns however it's common for them to have other colors. Most Giladals are big and tank like with long claws at the end of their fingers that they use for combat or burrowing.

 

Self-sufficient Clans

To any giladal, the clan is more important than life itself. Giladals owe their devotion and respect to their clan above all else, even the gods. Bringing dishonor to the clan can result in expulsion and exile. Each giladal knows his or her station and duties within the clan, and honor demands maintaining the bounds of that position.

A continual drive for self-improvement reflects the self-sufficiency of the race as a whole. Giladals hate to fail and because of that they will push themselves to extreme efforts before they give up on something. When a Giladal gets interested in something they will learn as much about that thing as they can, the most common being fighting. Members of other races who share the same commitment find it easy to earn the respect of a giladal. It's also not uncommon to see other races be accepted as one of the clan members.

Though all Giladals strive to be Self-Sustaining, they recognize that help is sometimes needed in difficult situations. But the best source for such help is the clan, and when a clan needs help, it turns to another giladalian clan before seeking help from other races or even from the gods.

Giladal Names
