Kitzal

Kitzal are the fox variant beast race, as such they bear the features of the creature they take after. Namely ears and tail. As children, they tend to have larger ears in comparison to their heads which often lead to somewhat cute if not overly awkward appearances. Even as adults, some Kitzals, namely women, retain a youthful appearance well into their middle years. Such as a forty year old Kitzal woman appearing as if she were a teen. They are adept at magic, and are among the most dexterous of the beast races.

Kitzal society is usually governed by twin sisters, who tend to the needs of the people as a whole. This has not been the case for over a thousand years prior to the events of the first book, where one sister joined a quest along with several strangers. At this point, some of the men who wanted a change overthrew the remaining sister, deposing her and ruling over their society and still do today. Many wish to return to the old ways, but are fearful of the Patriarch, and his judgment. The only pair of twins currently in their society is Fali and her sister, and she seeks to return things to the way they once were.

Kitzal are cunning by nature, and are prone to tricking others into doing what they need, this is especially true when it comes to trading with others. Like the other beast races, they can take on a bestial form, which resembles a werefox with nine tails. Their abilities in this form vary with where their talents lie. Magic is extremely potent in this form.
