The Tsinka are a feline race that live in the plains on the edge of the eastern continent's desert.

Biology

As feline beeings, the Tsinka have aspects of carnivore animals and humanoids, so they appear as human-like but with lightly sharped canine teeth, cat-like eyes and a thin fur over the whole body. Although most common Tsinka furs are orange, the colors can vary from any shade of orange to shades of red.

From evolutional view, they're not related to humans, dwarves, elves etc. but probably with Nu'chunks, a red fur coated race on the western continent somehow in ancient time.

The tsinka is a long lived race, each tsinka living at least one hundred and thirty years.

Culture

They are neutral to most outsiders and trade regularly. Their only major enemies are the Cattull. The Tsinka race is seperated into small nomadic tribes, kind of like american indians. The leader of each of these small tribes is an elder female, for tsinka are a matriarchal race. There is also a ruling tribe, the Na'Chaal, who is ruled by the queen of all tsinka. This queen only assumes command of all the Tsinka only in times of war or dire need.

The Tsinka dress in bright colors and live in collapsible homes, except for the queen who lives in a large wooden palace.

The Tsinka use weapons like swords and axes, and they believe in shamanism. Their shamans use their powers to draw out elementals to answer questions, foretell the future and to fight for them.Both sexes of the Tsinka fight in war and they do not use large war weapons. For travel, the Tsinka ride [Lika|Lika's]] , (aka Tauntauns), and Goru, large birds that seat two people. Both of these animals are used in war and each has their own cavalry.

The Tsinka are not xenophobic and trade with other races in their area of the continent. they are fearsome in battle, but helpful and wise to friends.
