Description:
The Lachiwa are a race of bipedal reptilian pollinators originating from the dense jungle islands of the southern channel. A sudden, unexplained explosion in the growth of the island’s mega flora over the past hundred years has allowed them to slowly grow more plentiful and gain stability previously unheard of. They exhibit extreme sexual dimorphism - so much so that someone unfamiliar with them might think they were different species entirely. Males are suited to collecting nectar from the jungle’s massive flowers. They have a long proboscis (secondary to their tongue) that they can use to collect nectar, storing it in cheek pouches to later deposit in the hive and turn into honey. Their bodies are small, but their wings are large and dexterous, and are able to carry them long distances through the jungle’s dense canopy in search of new flowers. Females are much larger than males, and are suited to create massive caverns underground where honey can be stored and the tribe can over-winter. They’re very light sensitive, and their hands are large and spade-shaped, used in tandem with scooped tusks to assist them in digging. Despite their large shape, they have fine-tuned control over their fingers and have begun to craft with them. Their wings are small, almost vestigial, and can’t be used for much more than slowing a fall. Now that their search for nectar isn’t quite so desperate, they’ve found the time to draw weird shapes on the walls, give each other shiny rocks, and think about what could make their honey taste better.
