The Rokthani | Population; 249

The village was at a complete loss of what to do. The beings were clearly not immediately aggressive, but their overall intentions were not at all clear. A couple people in the back of the growing crowd could be heard muttering. "Are they holy figures?" "Where did they come from?" "What do we call them?"
When one of them put down the fruit, everyone went silent. After a few seconds of staring, a Rokthan slowly inched forward, followed by gasps in the crowd. "Hey, what are you doing?! You ditz, get back here!!" says one in a hushed tone. The Rokthan didn't listen and continued to go to the fruit, attracted by its alluring sugary smell. When he got to the melon, he looked up at the figures. Feeling confident enough, he licks the fruit. The entire crowd was wide-eyed and tense at this point. Just when the local village organizer was about to says something, two more Rokthan started sliding towards the fruit. "Uh-- ge- hey! HEY!!" says the organizer trying to herd the two from the tall figures. It was useless. Now there were three Rokthan licking the fruit without a care in the world. "Are you guys completely dense?! Bought out by a sugarfruit?! We don't even know who... or what these... things are!" shouts the organizer. Ignoring his words, the rest of the village begin to come closer to the beings. Curiosity takes over as the village begins chattering to them. "Who are you?" "Where did you come from?" "What are you wearing?" "Why are you so tall?" "Are you Ki'Kisk?"
"I can't believe what I'm seeing! This is absolutely disgraceful! Where are your self-preservation instincts?!" barks the organizer as he slithers away from the group back to the village center.

Oooh I like lol. there a couple of good spots but it the choice of which one and where to go ha ha. my NS shall be up shortly :)

Also what is the level of expansion like? I assume our territories wont expand really quickly or anything?

@Damo021

Expansion is a bit of a gray area. Just take your time developing and don't double your turf every other post. When in doubt, ask the mods.

TADAH! One rainforest hot off the grill, fresh for the taking.

Name of Race: The Snow Brutes

Pic/Description (either one, but both is preferred): The Brutes are a humanoid people. Long, shaggy, pure white hair covers (and hangs off) the Snow Brute's entire body, parting only for medium size black eyes and a small mouth filled with many tiny, sharp teeth. They are a stocky, hardy people. 5 feet is the average height with 220 pounds being the average weight. Their arms and legs are short and stubby but thick and muscled.

Racial Characteristics (things specific to the race): The Snow Brutes are a very tough people. They thrive in harsh conditions, particularly in the cold. They are also very adaptive and very natural hunters and warriors. They are very strong. But they are prone to bursts of rage and are not very agile, fast, or smart.Their average life span is 60 years, reaching full maturity at 15 and stay in the same physical shape until their death.

Race Bio (personality, etc.): The Snow Brutes were once a chaotic, warring people. Many different tribes of Brutes fought and killed each other for little to no reason for many, many years. They murdered and plundered their own race until one day, the greatest warrior out of all the tribes, Dud, killed every leader of every separate tribe and those extremely loyal to them. He gathered the remaining Brutes and formed one great tribe. Dud hoped to one day be greater than just a self destroying race. Despite this, the Snow Brutes are still rooted in their war-like ways. They are skilled Warriors and Hunters. Hunting is their main way of food. They are also skilled at camouflage. Also, while not the smartest in the traditional sense, the Brutes are clever tacticians.

Location on Map: Far West Tundra, along the coast

Techs (specifically those not already given): Crude weapons and hunting tools. Camouflage.

@Elitestpotato

Looks good. You may proceed when ready.

if there is something like SouthAmerica i would like to be there , if is possible

@Murtox

I don't think we actually have many rainforests on the map at the moment. Hmmmm.... hold that thought.

Civilization Roleplay: Rise of Races (The Tribes of Nova Mondial Want You!)

Hop in, y'all.

Also, nobody really needs to worry about overpopulation. The map that you see is actually a pretty small chunk of the whole world, so I can just expand it if we get cramped.

The Rokthani | Population; 249



*Yaaawwwwwn*
It's a slow morning in the village of Easthome. The sun peaks up from behind the desert, reflecting upon the drifting current of the river Ki'Kisk. Rokthan move about their daily business, maintaining the burrows and tending to the insect farms. One man in particular goes to check up on the East side of a burrow entrance wall to ensure that it's not about to collapse and cause an inconvenience.
No cracks, no chunks falling off, it seems to be up to standard. Just as he's about to go bathe in the river after a tiring twenty seconds of work, he hears something odd. An animal? No, it can't be. There's nothing out here but a bunch of bugs. Whatever it was, it sounded like it was speaking a language. Maybe it's just a comrade that's heading back from a foraging. But he didn't recognize whatever they said. The man decides to take a good look behind him. What... are those? Are those predators?! He decides that the only logical thing to do is to scream out in panic.
SCREEECH!
With that, nearly the entire village, about 17 individuals rushed to where he was. Startled, they ask what the problem was. "Well, what?! What's wrong? You look like you've seen a spiri--"
That's when they saw them. Three tall figures standing back lit by the rising sun. It was uncertain if the crowd was staring in awe, horror, or some other emotion. Against his better judgement, one of them finally decided to say something. The first words ever spoken to another sapient race by a Rokthan.

Sorry I couldn't get that post up today, my POWER WENT OUT BECAUSE SOME SHMUCK RAN INTO A POLE. I'll work on it now.

May I join? I know I'm brand new and all, but I'll try very hard not to be bad at this and this looks really cool. I can also promise to be active. I've dabbled in role-playing and writing so I'm not brand new at this.

@Elitestpotato

Yupyupyup.

Civilization Roleplay: Rise of Races (The Tribes of Nova Mondial Want You!)

Ahh ok, no worries. I'll write up a response tomorrow after some sleep.

Hey @Nerevarine, I'm a bit confused. You mentioned finding a settlement of mine in a forest, but the only forest that I have populated is across the mountain range to the West.
