|Introduction=The '''Inguik''' are winged beings of light, the warden race of [[Tñarilu]], the [[Primordial Spirit]] of light. They were created at the beginning of the [[Dawn Wars]] to fight for Tñarilu against [[Náiluv]] and the [[Nuworno]], and they live in [[Qaaniguaq]], the realm of light. | |||
|Etymology=''Inguik'' is the [[Oraakkik]] word for "people". | |||
|Origin and Nature=Tñarilu created the Inguik when the Dawn Wars began, with the emergence of time near the end of the [[Great Erosion]]. They were not shaped from nothing: Tñarilu gathered the consciousness already present in light until it took form and awareness. Each Inguik is an accumulation of light as much as a creation. | |||
|History=The Inguik have fought in the Dawn Wars since they began. The war is an endless struggle between Tñarilu and Náiluv for control of space, and the struggle between the Inguik and the Nuworno is part of it. Neither side can win; the balance between them, the [[Great Equilibrium]], tips back and forth, and its shifting produces day and night on [[Dalel]]. The Dawn Wars are not fought in Dalel. | |||
|Biology and Physical Traits=The Inguik resemble winged human figures formed of light. They are ageless. | |||
|Abilities and Osia=The Inguik follow the [[Path of Tñarilu]]. Because of their closeness to Tñarilu, they hold great power over light, beyond that of human disciples. | |||
|Mythology and Legends=Inguik are very rarely seen in Dalel, and accounts of them are the stuff of myth. In art they are usually shown as winged figures bearing torches, surrounded by radiance. | |||
|Relations with Other Races=The Inguik are the enemies of the Nuworno, the wardens of Náiluv. | |||
