Cualli live visuals new years
Nearly universally, Cualli are evil, with the most common alignment being lawful evil. Tiamat's influence has twisted the minds of all Cualli, making good or neutral aligned Cualli nearly non-existant.
Most worship him out of fear more than out of reverance, but some of the Tiamati truly worship him. The Black City, Garazahk, has been laid siege to thousands of times by various armies attempting to put an end to Tiamat's evil, though its walls have never been penetrated.Īll Cualli worship Tiamat, the demon prince of wind, blood, and cruelty.
Their ways are even considered barbaric by the Red Hand. The Mazatl and Cualli fight an ancient war that has been going on since the birth of both races. The Cualli are universally hated by most of the civilized races - none more so than their cousins, the Mazatl. They are deemed unfit to even work for Tiamat's glory, and are actively hunted for sport, considered worthless as sacrifices. Those born outside of a caste are considered Casteless - less than slaves. They spend their lives toiling away, building Tiamat's dark cities, treated as little more than slaves - slaves eventually to be sacrificed on Tiamat's altar. Below them are the Itzcuintli, those deemed by Tiamat unfit to fight. The most common case of caste advancement is from Tochtli to Ehecatl - a Tochtli who survives long enough may propel his entire family into the ranks of the Ehecatl. The Tochtli are basically shock troops - they go in to weaken up the enemy army for the Ehecatl, who cut down the remaining enemies with ease. Then are the Tochtli, also warriors, but with much less training than the Ehecatl. The Ehecatl are the warriors, the second-highest caste and second smallest, responsible for destroying Tiamat's enemies. The Tiamati, dark priests of Tiamat, are the highest and smallest caste, and their word is taken as law, second only to Tiamat's own commands. Most stand in a hunched posture - even so, they remain taller than most races.Ĭualli live in a caste society, with each being born into one of the four castes at birth, with little to no chance of advancement. They have long, spined tails, ending in a boquet of sharp spines.
Their fingers are tipped with long and sharp claws, as are their toes. On their heads, they have a spiked crest. Their scales are usually black and dark blue, though some have dark red scales.
