Brief History
The Namara are a race created by accident. During the early trials with genetic replacement therapy looking for a cure to Bitterwood, plant DNA accidentally got introduced. The lead scientist blamed it on the intern's cat, who in a scientific experiment of its own to test the effects of gravity, knocked over several planters of rare plant life from the Chalcedonian Jungle. The result did seem to cure the Bitterwood affected areas, by replacing them with plant fibers and fungal growth. Since the Great Magic War, the Namarans have retreated to the deep jungles. A curious folk most at home in the wilderness, the Namara are known to live primarily in clan based villages hidden from the eyes of civilized nations. They are a mostly peaceful people, but certain Clans are known to be more warlike than others.

Lifespan
Namara are basically treated as adults as soon as they hit the age of 10. Before reaching that age, they are cared for by the whole clan. After reaching that age, they must build their own hut and start helping the clan, though the clan will always help one another. Elderly Namara older than 600 are treated with the utmost respect, and almost worshiped. Namara welcome death, seeing it as a right of passage to the spirit lands where they can be with their ancestors and where the bravest and most true Namara hold watch.
Appearance
Humanoid in size and shape, Namara are known to either have green, orange , yellow or brown leaf like hair, and their eyes are either green, purple, red, or yellow, their skin is either green brown, grey or yellow are covered in what seem to be fungal spore growths and their warriors are covered in ritualistic scars. Their hair grows more like a long vine with leafy like follicles. Namara warrior men never cut their hair, with their hair only being cut by the one who bested them. A namara man with a long "vine" is treated with respect, while one with a cut vine is either scorned or treated with the kind of sympathy you'd give a sick child.

They live in a clan based system that usually includes a few villages, located in the many forests of the world.
Food & Sleeping Requirements
Namara must drink water 3 times a day and sleep 6 hours a day, in order to not suffer any penalties. A namaran that doesn't spend at least some time in the sun light a day will suffer from anxiety.

They have a good relationship with most races. Any conflicts that have been known to occur have usually been resolved in a swift, sometimes brutal nature. Most find namarans to be a curiosity, while some even fear them.
