Alias: None
Origin: Yuvaar, island east of Thazvaar
The Yuvaaris are a distinct human ethnicity inhabiting Yuvaar, adamantly rejecting ties to Thazvaaris despite shared traits. Excelling in unarmed combat, they hunt large fauna bare-handed to preserve ecosystem balance and uphold traditions. Their culture focuses on the Yuvaari Hunting Games—weaponless team rituals modeled after predators like the Yuvaar Kelek and Goldenwing. Conducted in diverse terrains, these evolve from survival practices to broadcast festivals, with teams of five (Leader, two Holders, Runner, Ambusher) stressing strategy and harmony. Variants include beast subduals, endurance scrimmages, and arena duels; risks are high in wild settings. Festivals award points for triumphs, fostering celebrities, though off-island trials like Inland Thazvaar ended in bans due to perils.
