Yuke race

[Kupo]

YUKE
Yukes are tall, slender creatures with vast amounts of knowledge who wear suits of armor that conceal their faces. It is theorized that in reality the armor serves as 'bodies' and the Yukes are only souls that use a physical form to augment their magical abilities. Among Yukes, removing a Yuke's mask and / or armor is considered a severe punishment if the Yuke does not have a strong relationship with the person removing the armor. They tend to grow a little taller than the typical Hume, from 5.5 to 6.5 feet. Their armor is typically gold, or another tan color, and females sport an angel motif with angel wings and a halo plume, while males are more demonic in theme, with bat-like wings and spikes or horns atop their heads. They are usually encountered with other Yukes as nomads or in a Yuke city, but a few Yukes develop a bond with other races and will associate with them. Yukes are especially adept practitioners of magic, science, and philosophy, with Yuke settlements acting as glittering beacons of magic throughout the world; however, only Yukes, those accompanied by Yukes, and those specially chosen may enter these bastions of magic freely. Yukes tend to be quiet and whispering in their speech, giving a heavy air to their words.
