	The Njarir'Akhran, or simply the Njarir, are the ethnic group that made up the majority of the plutocracy prior to the Great War. Their lineage can be traced from careful breeding between Hharar and M'sai, leading to where they currently are today. Following recent events on Adhomai, Njarir make up less than ten percent of the population, though reports see that number reducing slowly between honor killings and hate crimes given their close relation to the Tajaran nobility. Easily identifiable by their large ears, fluffy tails, luxurious fur, higher heights and slender, elegant features. Njarir suffer persecution and rejection from certain proponents of Tajaran society because of their bloodline.

	Historically, Njarir comprised almost the entirety of the Tajaran nobility. Efforts were made to keep noble lines purebred, even if it led to inbreeding in dynasties. Those who married outside of or slept outside of their ethnicity were generally disowned by their family and forced into peasant life~~. This accounts for practically all surviving Njarir outside of those in the Hadii family, who serve in important parts of the federal government~~. As the most learned of all Tajaran ethnic groups, they boast high intelligence and have a propensity towards the arts and sciences. Many have fled Adhomai only to be offered cushy jobs elsewhere working for the Alliance, other factions, or transstellar corporations. These individuals are looked down upon even more.

	In stark contrast to their brethren, Njarir tend toward very bright, colorful fur patterns. Typically, their fur color ranges from reddish browns to cream colors, and they do not generally have dark fur. Siamese patterns, as well as tortoiseshell or patched tabby patterns, were valued amongst Njarir bloodlines, and those with more intricate fur patterns were revered and admired by their fellow noblemen, and it was considered an attractive trait in a female. Despite all this, these patterns have been shown to be recessive genes in Njarir, and the most common fur pattern is simply stripes.

	Due to their history as the ruling class of the Tajara, many records pertaining to Njarir practices and culture were destroyed in acts of insubordination. This, coupled with the widespread burning of Njarir literature and the destruction of castles, villas, and chateaus, has led to a loss of critical information in ancient Njarir practices. What is known, however, is that only a handful of Njarir were ever part of the peasantry. As stated previously, keeping the bloodline pure was almost mandated amongst the noble dynasties and anyone who broke this rule was exiled to live as a peasant. Other stipulations were agreed upon to ensure the 'nobleness' of a family member. One could not marry a peasant, or involve themselves in peasant affairs unless it proved a problem to productivity. To be seen in public, a nobleman or woman was obligated to wear fanciful clothing to show their status and were discouraged from physical contact with the peasantry.

	The history of the Rhazar'Hrujmagh people, a name that can be translated roughly as “Rock Nomads”, is closely linked to the Zhan-Khazan, with both sharing the same origin in the ancient Tajaran age, a race of cave-and-mountain dwelling Tajara that traditionally were entrusted with physical labor. Unlike the typical Zhan-Khazan, which were put under serfdom by the ruling classes, the Rhazar'Hrujmagh developed into a semi-nomadic society, based around the herding of N’hanzafu and Zhsram. The modern Zhan-Khazan and the ~~typical~~ Rhazar'Hrujmagh share identical physical characteristics, such as having a strong body constitution and dark fur, and many just consider being a Rock Nomad an alternative Zhan culture. The south of Ras'nrr is home to the majority of the Rock Nomad population, but an expressive minority can be found in the middle and north of Harr'masir.

	While most Tajaran developed cities and the farmlands, organizing themselves into monarchies and dynasties, the Rhazar'Hrujmagh would travel the land and rocky mountains of Adhomai, looking for pastures more suitable for their herds, in large caravans made up of several families, with their wagons being dragged around by Zhsram. During the feudal period of Adhomai they suffered extensive persecution by the authorities, developing a tradition of being a warring people, accustomed to being persecuted and moving through the rough terrain of Adhomai with ease. The Rhazar'Hrujmagh played an important role as mercenaries in the countless conflicts before the creation of the Steeple. Many families and caravans made fortunes from being paid to fight in those wars, generally riding their Zhsram into battle as cavalry, or from any plunder they were allowed to collect. When the status quo settled they were seen as an undesirable element by most monarchies, and several restrictions were created against them.

	During the First Revolution the great majority of Rhazar'Hrujmagh fought alongside the rebels, with some being employed as mercenaries by the monarchists. However, the Hadii’s regime decided that the presence of such nomadic people was in conflict with the ideals promoted by the new Tajaran society, and tried to settle down the Rhazar'Hrujmagh, creating conflict and tension again. The emergence of the Adhomai Liberation Army was seen as an opportunity by many Rhazar'Hrujmagh to save their traditional ways. Joining Nated’s rebellion is popular among the youth of Rhazar'Hrujmagh families and caravans, serving in the irregular guerilla warfare, where the knowledge of Adhomai’s terrain and the speed of their mounts is useful.

Most albino Tajara were handed to M’sai families or the local temple. Followers of Ma’ta’ke would raise them to become Mata’ke priests as albinism is deemed a blessing by the pantheon’s head. The Church of S'rand'marr trained its albino orphans to become copyist priests: this way they would avoid the harsh sunlight by staying inside the candle-lit libraries.		*'''Albinism:''' manifesting similarly to the other species, Tajara with albinism will suffer a severe lack of coloration in the fur and eyes.

It drastically affects the Tajara’s balance; those who suffer from this disease will commonly rely on canes to walk. ~~Njarir’Akhran~~ and Hharar suffering from Stunted-Tail would be assigned clerical positions to avoid extra strain from walking.

	Following the Great War, almost every noble family was systematically exterminated. The only noble family still in power outside of the New Kingdom is the Hadii, who serve in the Republican government. It has proved exceedingly difficult to acquire testimony or records from living Hadii members, who wish not to anger the Tajaran public any further due to the still unstable post-revolution period on Adhomai. Relics recovered from Njarir ruins, however, suggest that at one point they were highly religious, giving credence to the theory that these nobles evolved from religious leaders. The revival of the [[New Kingdom of Adhomai]] has triggered a wave of restoration of the old Njarir culture.		Following the Great War, almost every noble family was systematically exterminated.

	Siik'maas was the widely spoken language of Njarir, though amongst themselves they preferred to use the Ya'ssa dialect. Presumed to be the traditional language of the nobility, it uses a more refined alphabet and speech pattern believed to have evolved from a less-used ancient language. Hadii members have been recorded to still use this language, though ultimately with the widespread annihilation of noble families, this language has fallen into disuse until its revival by the New Kingdom of Adhomai.

Njarir’Akhran and Hharar suffering from Stunted-Tail would be assigned clerical positions to avoid extra strain from walking. Religious Tajara believed that Hakh’jar was the result of a curse or divine punishment directed at one’s bloodline. Only recently prostheses tails have been developed to help remediate this condition.

	Dornskhy: an extremely rare disorder characterized by the total lack of fur on the body. Tajara affected by this disease are vulnerable to all kinds of infections and injuries; painful rashes will cover the skin and sunburns are inevitable. Before First Contact, only nobles could afford the necessary treatment and luxuries to survive this condition; those suffering from Dornskhy would remain confined to palaces for their entire life. Nowadays, carriers of this disorder have a longer life expectancy but must remain under constant medical care.

	Siik'maas and Siik'tajr were always widely used by M'sai, but the body-focused language of Nal'rasan was their creation. Because the mrowling and vocal expressions of Siik'maas could sometimes alert prey to their presence and drive them away, hunting parties adopted this language to prevent such a thing from occurring. Rebel sects saw the use of this language and made use of it for covert discussions and the transmission of highly classified information before and during the Great War.

			=Genetic Disorders=

			Because of the prevalence of selective breeding in their history, the Tajara people now suffer the consequences of these practices: shorter lifespan, weaker immunosystems, and genetic disorders are far more common among the Tajara than in other species. Before the First Revolution, most infants born with noticeable deformities were abandoned or given to religious authorities. The introduction of modern medicine quickly made the Tajara aware of the origin of such diseases; the Adhomian governments are now working tirelessly to find ways to repair the damage done by the nobility’s rule. Due to their small population and obsession with purity, the Njarir’Akhran are the ethnic group most affected by genetic diseases.

			Heterochromia iridium, especially when one of the eyes is blue and the other yellow, is considered a lucky symbol. Tajara suffering from eye disorders will frequently have trouble seeing in low light conditions.

			==Notable Disorders==

			'''Albinism:''' manifesting similarly to the other species, Tajara with albinism will suffer a severe lack of coloration in the fur and eyes. Before the First Revolution, those who were born with this disorder were usually considered to be displaced M’sai, either as the result of infidelity or by divine intervention. Most albino Tajara were handed to M’sai families or the local temple. Followers of Ma’ta’ke would raise them to become Mata’ke priests as albinism is deemed a blessing by the pantheon’s head. The Church of S'rand'marr trained its albino orphans to become copyist priests: this way they would avoid the harsh sunlight by staying inside the candle-lit libraries.

	As the third (though only by a small margin) populous Tajaran ethnic group, the M'sai were at one point the hunters for ancient Tajara and evolved to have lithe, slender forms, and light fur that hid them in the blizzards on Adhomai. As Tajaran society advanced, M'sai could be found in many roles related to combat, including law enforcement and military service. Not all M'sai resign themselves to these positions, however, and enjoy helping Zhan-Khazan on the country farms or performing civil duties in cities from garbage disposal to cargo inspections.

	Characterized by their thin, slender forms, the M'sai are deceptively light; by Tajaran standards, they are thinner and smaller. With less but thicker fur and a thinner layer of body fat, they aren't as well insulated against Adhomai's cold as their brethren. However, this gives them the bonus of being speedier, and their bodies are designed to be aerodynamically compatible with the harsh winds of Adhomai. Where a Zhan-Khazan would stumble as he weathered the winds, a M'sai can easily and quickly sprint through without being affected. The M'sai are agile, intelligent, and have quick reaction times, making them ideal for high-stress work.

	Hharar, as the first Tajaran ethnicity who Humanity came in contact with is generally viewed as the 'typical Tajara', which is reinforced by their numerical superiority over the other groups. Additionally, given their large numbers and capabilities, they most often serve in governmental positions and as ambassadors to other races; this leads to them being taken as the 'face' of the Tajaran race, as it were.

However, in most cases, their IQ is slightly lower than your usual human, which is generally attributed to the sub-par schooling and education Tajara received prior to the Great War. Regardless, many xenophobic groups use this as ammunition in their arguments targeting the Tajara, when in actuality the Hharar are considered to be extremely creative and innovative.		While Hharar don't boast any obvious physical advantages or disadvantage compared to the other subspecies, they are by nature more inquisitive than others. While this alone doesn't make them any more intelligent, they tend to dominate intellectually focused roles.

	Zhan-Khazan are the second most populous of Tajaran ethnicities and are considered to be the backbone of the Tajaran workforce. Their history as ethnicity is not well documented; very few historical texts describing them were preserved in the wake of the Great War, and archaeological dig sites are difficult to preserve given the climate of Adhomai. What is known, however, is that the Zhan-Khazan were at one point a race of cave-and-mountain dwelling Tajara that traditionally were entrusted with physical work like mining, farming, ranching, and logging.

What is known, however, is that the Zhan-Khazan were at one point a race of cave-and-mountain dwelling Tajara that traditionally were entrusted with physical work like mining, farming, ranching, and logging.

	Because of their history of hard work and the way they adapted to harsh mountain life, Zhan-Khazan are more physically intimidating than other Tajara. Featuring more toned, muscular bodies, thicker fur coats, and a heavier bodyweight, they are well-suited to tasks requiring brute strength and heavy lifting. They are by no means less intelligent than the Hharar, but most Zhan-Khazan do not pursue the same type of work. Zhan-Khazan make up a significant amount of Tajara employed in resource gathering, construction, civil jobs such as law enforcement, and even culinary work such as butchering.

	The Njarir'Akhran, or simply the Njarir, are the ethnic group that made up the majority of the plutocracy prior to the Great War. Their lineage can be traced from careful breeding between Hharar and M'sai, leading to where they currently are today. Following recent events on Adhomai, Njarir make up less than ten percent of the population, though reports see that number reducing slowly between honor killings and hate crimes given their close relation to the Tajaran nobility. Easily identifiable by their large ears, fluffy tails, luxurious fur, and slender, elegant features. Njarir suffer persecution and rejection from certain proponents of Tajaran society because of their bloodline.

Easily identifiable by their large ears, fluffy tails, luxurious fur, higher heights and slender, elegant features. Njarir suffer persecution and rejection from certain proponents of Tajaran society because of their bloodline.

	Historically, Njarir comprised almost the entirety of the Tajaran nobility. Efforts were made to keep noble lines purebred, even if it led to inbreeding in dynasties. Those who married outside of or slept outside of their ethnicity were generally disowned by their family and forced into peasant life. This accounts for practically all surviving Njarir outside of those in the Hadii family, who serve in important parts of the federal government. As the most learned of all Tajaran ethnic groups, they boast high intelligence and have a propensity towards the arts and sciences. Many have fled Adhomai only to be offered cushy jobs elsewhere working for the Alliance, other factions, or transstellar corporations. These individuals are looked down upon even more.
