FYI:
-Females always have fancier armor than the males.
-Female have pointy bone feet; good for stabbing.
-Males always have toes and those toes have claws; good for gripping the ground.
-Hex do not have manes or 'hair'.
-Their base is always a natural color.
-Their markings can be any color.
-Males never have back armor.
Hex live on a large planet nearly twice the size of Jupiter called Sanctuary. They are a belligerent group of Sanctuary fauna. They are constantly fighting other packs of Hex for territory and food. The females are the ones who primarily do the fighting while the males do the scouting and hunting. They tend to live in the plains and forests of Sanctuary and very rarely travel into ecosystems of extreme temperatures. Pack size ranges from 10 to 25 individuals, with an Alpha female leading the group. There is no alpha male. Loners are not uncommon, but they don't usually live as long as a Hex in a pack. An average Hex lives to be 150 years old. A loner will be lucky to reach 100.
They are carnivores and will eat anything they can catch, ranging from small rodents and birds to larger deer-like species.
A Hex is considered an adult when they reach 15 years of age. At this time they are allowed to make their armor using materials they find or barter for. Bartering is done between different species and very rarely between other Hex.
Hex have a 'humanoid' form but they keep their quad markings, tails and ears. Their legs also remain digigrade. In short: human head, arms and torso. Hex legs, tail, ears and markings.
Humankind is not unknown to Sanctuary, but the high council that rules over it consider any human artifact that is brought back to Sanctuary as contraband and will often times have it destroyed. This is to discourage trips to Earth which may attract unwanted attention. Hex cannot teleport but can sometime hitch a ride with an Ax'ranthael who can.
Packs:As stated above Hex tend to live in packs that range from 10 to 25 individuals. Anyone with a Hex is free to audtion to start their own pack, but not everyone will be accepted. Females are always the Alpha, no exceptions. Females are also of higher rank than the males. Males have little to do with running the pack though they may assist in raising the kits.
Pack Hierarchy:
Alpha- leads pack
Beta- leads pack in alpha's absence
Top Fighters- train females in fighting
Fighters-fight for pack
Scouts- scout territory
Hunters- hunt for pack
Nanny- cares for kits
(subject to change)
Suggestions:
If you have a suggestion for a hex design, there is a form under the adoption post. This is sorta like a custom except the design will be put up as a normal adoption for anybody to adopt. This is useful if you want to offer a position in a clan that has certain characteristics.
