Zirantians

Zirantians are a very diverse race of humanoids with some animal features - eyes, ears, tails, etc. Despite appearances though, they are more closely related to succubi and demons than to animals.

Biology
Their form is subject to a great variation. There are Zirantians with features of cats (Lexande, Kia, and Nia), birds (Biyue), lions (King Kanfuor), goats (Yuanuon‏), rabbits (Fuani‏), foxes (Allue and Alluon), and many other animals. Zirantians mature very fast and their lifespan is slightly shorter than humans. Unlike other races, female Zirantians can breed only when they go into estrus.

Politics
Zirantians form another large portion of the population of Arclent. They are the majority in the kingdom of Zirantia, but Zirantians can also be found in the human kingdoms, where they often suffer poverty and discrimination. Zirantia itself is rather young - it was formed after the war on some of the devastated territories liberated from the Incubus King and named after the mythical homeland of the race. Outside of Arclent, Zirantians also seem to live on Renthnor, in Philon.

Culture
Zirantians seem to have a visible but dwindling patriarchal system, with unattached females being able to have positions of power, however attached females will tend to defer all conversation and discussion to their "breeders". A common Zirantian language does exist, but so far it seems to be used only in Zirantia. All Zirantians originating outside the kingdom have spoken only Clentian.

Religion
The kingdom of Zirantia claims Antiala as the patron goddess of Zirantians. She seems to have direct involvement in Zirantia, mostly through the Divine Claw.
