Sakhiin

The smallest continent on the Nexus, it is a harsh desert island that lies east to Alorea. It is home to reptilian and insectoid races. Due to the nature of its residents and the shape of the island it is also referred to as The Scale.

Sakhiin is underdeveloped compared to the tribes of Calinem or the Kippelian empire, largely due to its inhospitable environment. However while the land may not be fertile it is rich in gems and precious metals, some of which can only be found in Sakhiin.

Peoples of Sakhiin
Yuan-Ti- The dominant race on Sakhiin. These serpentine people have a rigid caste society and are notorious for using the other races of Sakhiin as slaves for mining, construction, or as sacrifices to their serpent gods.

Hivers- Odd looking insectoid people who appear to have blocks of chitin for heads and stilts for feet. The majority live under the complete control of their Hiver Queens, however if separated from their colony they can potentially develop independent thought.

Kobolds- Small reptilian people, the least imposing race on Sakhiin. Occupy a similar niche as Goblins, or Alorea’s Grung. Often align themselves with another group for protection but are cowardly and strictly fair-weather friends.

Lizardfolk- Gifted survivalists. Focus on the bare essentials instead of luxuries and traditions. Always seeking to reap the greatest benefit from their harsh environment.

Thri-Keen- Mysterious locust-like people with psionic potential. Do their best to stay hidden from outsiders so they can focus on survival and meditation.

Tortles- Curious turtlelike people native to the coasts of Sakhiin. Use their semi-aquatic nature to explore the Nexus and mainly only return to Sakhiin to give rise to the next generation.
