Larvacarian
What? A Larvacarian? I don't see anything other than just a bug.
In a forest full of elves, and fairies the tiny Larvacarians are in a league of their own. Do not let their small stature fool you, for even being small they can be a formidable foe. The Larvacarians ride the mount that their caste is named after.
Personality: The Larvacarians are a military minded race, from the time they wake up until the time that they go to sleep the Larvacarian is either fighting or learning to fight.
Physical Description: The Larvacarians are aproximately 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches in height and their weight is measured by the ounce instead of the pound, on average they are between 6 to 10 ounces.
Relations: The Larvacarians are born into a caste system which trains them as to what class they are being born into. All of the classes live together in clans. The clans however, are almost constantly at war with each other. There is only one caste that has ever been outlawed among the Larvacarians, and that is the Spider since most spiders kill other insects, their riders have a tendency to cannibalize other Larvacarians. The only other caste outside of the caste system is the Butterfly, which makes up the clerics and paladins of the Larvacarian race.
Alignment: Any
Lands: The Larvacarians have small settlements in the forests, but can live anywhere that you might find insects. In fact, in a small village, there was a war between different Larvacarian Clans, which as a result wiped out the village, because every building had a different clan living on top of it.
Religion: Most Larvacarians are very religious and most commonly worship Obad-Hai. Normally, the Butterfly caste is trained to be the clerics or the paladins.
Language: The Larvacarians speak very few languages, some those that have traveled farther might know more but the average Larvacarian only speaks: Common, Elven, and Sylvan
Names: The Larvacarians are named at birth, which is well before they have turned into one gender or another.
Common Names:
Halv, FaVol, Vicusiathe, Helgor, Dallion, ChalVol
Adventures: The Larvacarians commonly go on adventures, now if some notices or not just depends on how unlucky you might actually be. If there is a chance for someone to be killed a Larvacarian will more than likely be the first volunteer even, or especially, on a suicide mission.
