Duranthi: Difference between revisions

* Stone-Skin Gradient: Duranthi who live near the [[Citadel Mountains]]—especially around [[Kar-Thal]]—tend to develop pronounced geological features, including hardened dermal plates, mineral inclusions, and angular facial structures. Those born or raised farther from the mountains exhibit more human-like skin with subtle stone textures or colorations. This gradient of stoniness is culturally significant and often interpreted as a sign of spiritual proximity and ancestral legitimacy.

* Eidetic Memory: Many Duranthi~~, particularly those raised near the domain of [[Oras]],~~ exhibit near-total recall. This ability to retain precise civic and ancestral information is highly valued and contributes to societal continuity.

* Eidetic Memory: Many Duranthi exhibit near-total recall. This ability to retain precise civic and ancestral information is highly valued and contributes to societal continuity.

* Geological Inheritance: Physical traits often correspond to local stone types—slate, basalt, quartzite—resulting in regional distinctions. While not always visible, these traits influence personal identity and social alignment.

* Durability: All Duranthi exhibit high resistance to pressure, weather, and erosion. Their internal structures are dense, and their skeletal systems mineralized, allowing for long lifespans and gradual physical evolution.
