Miska

A mouse-like creature. They are among the races with the highest breeding rate, and thus are very common throughout Nezari, found practically in any place or biome. They are excellent helpers, and also dwell in large groups above and underground.

Culture

 * Miska tend to collect things and thus are excellent at tasks that require perception and searching through things at a fast rate. Because of this, miska are often hired as librarians, medics, appraisers, bankers, etc. They also do well in the food industry, and often are a chef's forager/supplier, and make great farmers.
 * Miska and their cousin, ratura, often work together, with miska working the more "hands-on", thorough jobs, and ratura handling the jobs requiring more strength and bulk.
 * They adore food, and love to hoard it. In a traditional miska home, there is typically a basement, or "underburrow" as they call it, where they store food, particularly cheese, bread, fruits, nuts and grasses. Their very deity, (name), is a god of plentiful food.
 * Because of their high variability, their culture is vast and ever-changing -- though as they are, they tend to steer to a more "useful" lifestyle, so they keep up with newer traditions. However, because there are two types of miska, the modern and the traditional, they argue amongst each other and war isn't unheard of.
 * The traditional (or tribal) miska dwell in very large colonies, usually over a hundred specimen in one colony, and believe heavily on their god, (name). They wear clothing made of thread and cloth, though most generally wear as little clothing as possible when underground and will only wear clothing when above ground.
