Peaceful, civilized folk who live a largely agrarian existence, Jiran are diminutive humanoids who are shorter than misi by around a head, but lighter of frame. Their homes are farms and steads with villages forming close-knit communities. Jiran are not the most adventurous of races, and can go largely unnoticed as they pose no kind of threat to anyone. Even still, jiran have large, tentacles that dangle in front of their mouths, which often give outsiders an unfounded unnerving perception of them.
Whilst they are generally unadventurous, jiran are inquisitive. They like to know, and share, secrets. They adore stories, myths and fables, and have inquiring minds. They are innately gifted in magic and often blessed by the gods, serving as healers and diviners among other folk. This means that, when abroad, the world is a fascinating place to be questioned and taken in, and this can lead them into trouble. Otherwise they are a rather prosaic, content race that keeps to itself, and prefer neither to interfere with the wider world or have it interfere with them.
Jiran are Civilized. Their communities are closely-knitt villages and small towns with several extended families forming the basis of the community. Their industries are agrarian primarily, but also handicrafts such as pottery, weaving, leatherworking, and textiles. They do work metals but very infrequently for weaponry.
