Damika

Damika are anthro meerkats and are exceedingly rare in Osopelea. They are known to have a few obscure pocket communities deep underground.

Naturally adept at digging and tunneling, damika have used this ability to protect their few numbers, as they are often enslaved or attacked by other races. Or so they remember. Truthfully, damika learned to be self-sufficient over 600 years ago and now go to great lengths to remain away from other races.

Ekrate, however, have discovered a few of the communities and seek to enslave them. They are valuable in part because of their rarity and in part because they are such excellent tunnelers. Males are of even greater value, as they will often fight to the death to protect their community, making it that much more difficult to capture one.

Damika work especially well together with other damika.

The ekrate in Kejarrik have about 80 damika. Outside of Kejarrik damika, while known to exist, number fewer than 10. Invariably they either become high-ranking officials that earn the protection of a government, or they become slaves. Their rarity seems to draw a sign on their body that reads 'enslave me'.

Damika usually range from 4 feet to 5.5 feet in height.
