A proud, noble felinoid race with a penchant for comfort, extravagant clothes and pampering. They are tall and agile, with enhanced aural and olfactory abilities, as well as possessing night vision.
Demarians can resemble anything from the most common of housecats to the most fearsome jungle beasts. All varieties stand digitigrade and have retractable claws on all four paws. Kits are not born in large litters but rather two or three at a time, and while mothers provide milk for their young, females do not have noticeable breasts.
Their society is class-oriented, with a line drawn down the middle between nobles of the Great Houses and the underclassers who serve them. The planet’s ruling body – the Senate – is comprised of representatives from Great Houses Sandwalker, Darksinger, Pathfinder, and Skyglider. House Sandwalker is generally considered the greatest among equals, owing to its legacy as the House of Altheor.
Underclassers are everyone in Demarian society who is not a clergy or a noble. Many serve one of the greater or lesser Houses in some capacity, whether by being born into servitude or by simply enlisting with the family of their choosing, but the vast majority are simply everyday people with everyday jobs and lives. The average Demarian underclasser is free to go about their business so much as he obeys the laws and pays his betters the proper respect – with the understanding that should a Great House demand something of him, he is compelled to duty or death.
