Nu Mou

The wise and gentle Nu Mou, a tribe of lop-eared mages and spellcasters, are famous for their thirst for learning and their discovery of the most esoteric of magical rites. They have gray, leathery skin, and long, lop-rabbit ears, often pierced by heavy jewelry. They have snouts, and sport elegantly long tails covered in heavy orange fur, giving them a bestial cast that doesn’t mesh with their cautious, timid ways. The Nu Mou are sagacity-embodied scholars who are rarely seen outside of their impressive academic towers, except when working on behest of professors or politicians. They are devoted enough to the ideal of knowledge, power, and education to sacrifice themselves for this cause, if need be.
