Poshum: The ram touched
Parent Constellation: Aries
Pronunciation: Poe-Shum
- Poshum personality, in general, tends to be gruff and grumpy but they are truly good hearted folk who place a lot of worth in hard work and good deeds. If you show yourself to be a hard worker they tend to approve of you in very short time. Lazy Poshum are a very rare sight.
- They love their food and drink. Feasts and parties tend to happen with very little cause or provocation for the event. It could be something as simple as a very good batch of drink had recently been brewed to something as wonderful as a wedding or the birth of a healthy child.
- Physically Poshum vary as much as humans do. Some may be tall and slender while others are short and stocky. Females tend to develop rather voluptuous figures, while males tend to more toward the muscular side and of course there are those that just simply become chubby. The body builds often vary due to jobs the Poshum keep. Poshum faces can also vary in appearance, from ugly to beautiful and everything in between. They do not set a lot of stock in facial appearances. Males tend to grow beards and general facial hair.
- Possible hair colors: Black, White, Brown, Gray or Silver. Dual colored hair is a rarity.
Possible eye colors: Brown, Green, Hazel. Gold colored eyes are very rare.
Possible physical traits: Cloven hooves/lower parts of a goat/ram, Fur/fuzz on random parts of the body, Ram horns, Ears that are simply pointed (like elf-ears) or floppy and shaped exactly like goat/ram ears. Naturally black or grayish colored fingernails, some of them may be pretty thick and tough, like hooves.
- Magic-wise, Poshum do earth magic and have middling strength in it. Much like the Aquatic Born: the closer they are to the earth and mountains the stronger their magic tends to be. Age-wise they live a little longer than humans but not quite as long as Celestials.
- While generally mild in temperament, they do have a bit of a temper on them, especially if they perceive insults from another party or when riled up through teasing. Work-wise they tend to favor any kind of crafting job and seem to be split up into a dichotomy of sorts:
Males: Carpentry, Blacksmithing, and etc.
Females: Brewing (alcoholic and none), Cooking, Tailor/Seamstress.
Though, on occasion, there will be a female blacksmith just like there will be a male tailor. The Poshum are probably one of the few races where there seems to be some sort of very faint gender role involved.
- Poshum are clan and family oriented. Male leaders of the clan are common, and called chieftains. It is not unheard of, however, that females run a clan here or there, depending on the situation. Poshum believe in a 50/50 sort of arrangement when it comes to marriages and the like. The Poshum tend to marry outside of clan and sometimes (rarely) outside of their own kind.
