Catrider Holt
Catriders
are Elves with a mix of Cat, White Spotted (Snow Leopard) and Yellow Spotted
Cat (Jaguar), blood. Generally they have more Elf then Cat blood,
and look Elven. Now and again, though, a throw back is born that seems more cat
then Elf. The Cats that bond with the Elves contain a bit of Elf blood in their
make up. While they don’t generally have the full speech ability to Send as if
talking, they do communicate through pictures. The Catriders and their Cats are
still relatively young as a species to have throw backs yet in the Cats.
Catrider Holt is situated in Web Forest, and are hunter/gatherers, they don’t farm, but instead take as the forest provides. Much like the animals of the forest, the Catriders have learned to store nuts and berries, and dried meats for lean times. A few know how to fish the streams and rivers in their forest.
Catrider Elves live much like any primitive tribe of people. There is pottery and basket weaving for storage. They tan hides for clothing. They use pretty stones, wood, bone, quills, ect. for decorating. Except the dried foods stuffs, they eat everything raw, like their bond cats.
Here's the Timeline for Catrider Holt, this way you might have an idea of where the stories fall.
