=====Subraces ("Families"):=====
(Ayer choose one subrace)
====Ayeri: ====
When these races were first discovered it was only the Ayeri that were come into contact with. Luckily they were among the most peaceful and inquisitive of the bunch.
With soft almost felinic faces, lanky bodies, and natural curiosity, they were come to be known as the Ayeri, though those on the initial contact team were never really sure if they were talking about the place they lived, or the group of people, they were written down in the logs as the Ayeri. There was speculation on the word Aerie, as the place they lived... and eventually the words were used interchangeably.
====Kaethen: ====
The Kaethen resided on the small scattered islands surrounding the main bulk of islands that was come to be known as the Aeri. Because the islands were close to gether, yet seperate... the Kaethen evolved methods to traverse the severe terrain they called their home.
====Jerethi:====
The Jerethi preferred the depths of the main islands, preferring to delve down into the cave system and expand. It appears there are not many Jerethi as there are not many that come to trade with those above their preferred domain. To those that deal a lot with the Ayer, the Jerethi may seem a little different in appearance, but it seems somehow a little off. Are they a little bit shorter, But the limbs appear the same general length.. Do they seem sleeker in nature? While many may make comment that the Jerethi are different, it's almost as tho they can't quite place how specifically they are different, except for one general identifier, they are all darker in color. Though they may be underground most of their lives, they do not turn albino except for the exceptionally rare albinism to show - but this is not special of the Jerethi, this applies to all Ayer.
