The Kuulik (🔊 Koo-oo-lihk) are a diminutive race of typically green-skinned fonts of ambition.
Kuulik Variants[edit]
Sawdager[edit]
The Sawdager (🔊 Saw-dah-gur) are perhaps among the most ambitious people in all of Otan. While even the simplest creatures understand basic trade, the Sawdager have perfected trade into an artform. A regular Human will understand that goods can be exchanged for pieces of gold, for example. A Sawdager will understand so much more.
A Sawdager will understand that goods have a cost of production, production durations and completion schedules, cost of transport, logistics costs, insurance, and of course storage. This is only to get the goods to a wholesaler, where they must now consider distribution to retail outlets, maintain customer relations with retailers, handle special circumstances and requests, and manage the localization issues with distributing products in foreign lands.
Tenizi[edit]
If ever a buckle was swashed, a Tenizi (🔊 Teh-neet-see) a swashbuckling Tenizi probably swashed it. Their brand of Kuulikishness made fishermen and seafarers of them all. It would be as unheard of for a Tenizi child to grow up away from the water as an Ungir child who would not play in the dirt. The Tenizi often form tight communities with their Sawdager cousins as the swashbucklers often provide a means of distribution for their trade-hungry kinfolk.
Tenizi ambitions are somewhat different than the rest of Otan as well. While anyone from a noble Human to a revered Grendel will think about acquiring a large keep with many servants and tracts of land, a Tenizi dreams of more assets at sea. The very richest of the Tenizi create huge floating fortresses that are sometimes found circling the coastal waters of Otan. These fortresses often provide tax-free refuges for their Sawdager kinfolk and are often sought after as excellent opportunities for trade (particularly trade for rare items).
Uris[edit]
For anyone who's had an older sibling, they'll have some insight as to how the Uris (🔊 Oo-riss) Kuulik blend into Kuulik society.
