Biology

After about 7 centuries of isolation, they had evolved into beings that are physically weaker than ordinary humans but have greater intelligence and born magical powers. Their magic is weak on its own but many people become wizards easily. The more powerful wizard's heads become transparent as a result of their magical power streaming through the body. These heads constantly emit a small amount of light but have all organic abilities. Nobles and other important people often have painted bodies to show off their status.
