Description[]
Nariyása have a slightly darkened, easily-tanning skin, dark to red hair, and a variable range of eye colours that includes a yellowish tint. They tend to be around 5'9" / 170cm, though it's been noticed that Nariyása women with some Wejít ancestors are, on average, a bit shorter than is typical for the race.
The race originates from the part of the world with the same name (consisting of Eastern Nariyása and Western Nariyása).

Template Notes[]
Nariyása Mentality: while this isn't an all-encompassing personality trait, Nariyása have a very slight natural (inborn) predisposition towards a cynical (in the modern sense of the word), somewhat pessimistic outlook on life and people, and a mild scepticism towards peaceful resolution of conflicts. They're likely to attribute failure to come to an agreement to malice than to honest differences in outlook, to mistrust a person in power and the like. This tendency is not universal and rather mild, and definitely doesn't make them evil, though some Wejít consider them such.
Nariyása are well-adapted to life in a barren or desert climate, having a more efficient metabolism, and protective membranes on their eyes.
