Descendants of Chuflouz blown in from the Western Continent. Explode violently when murdered. Uses same gasses as propellant and as a natural firebomb. Tentouz biology has evolved 360 degree vision, and bio luminescence as a form of communication. This allows certain Ry'lai to talk to the ancient Frilla trees that house them. The Ry'lai specifically have evolved to store poisons from the Frilla trees that house them allowing them to throw those as well.

Tentouz biology has 2 stronger gripper arms with opposable thumbs, and 4 tentacle-feeler arms. The latter four arms have links to their gas bladders to allow these arms to craft the explosive firebombs, and poisonous ones as well.

At some point the Ry'lai connected with enclave forces from the western continent. Through an act of good faith the Ry'lai, through Dakkon, and the Enclave Lem began to share technology and lifestyles.

Technology

Industry of the Ry'lai

Live on what used to be Frilla trees, but through a strange meteor and bio engineering now live in flying Frilla cities. The cities are effectively armored flying battleships and support the entirety of the Ry'lai civilization. Through engineering attempts the Ry'lai have attached propellers to their home trees and war trees to allow them to be moved along faster than the trees normal breezy pace.

War-trees are peak of Ry'lai technology. Combining metalurgy, flying frillas, and all three groups of Ry'lai they have created what can only be described as a flying battleship. A medium sized frilla is uplifted and covered in frilla bark armor. Wherever there are vulnerable gas sacks, metal armor is applied. After that the propeller engines are attached to allow the Ry'lai a way to move their war-trees along faster. From here the ships effectively can act as CC centers, drop ships, or anything inbetween. As for armament the onboard Ry'lai rain poisons and explosives from their high positions, and Enclave cannons are shot from their perch as well. Normally webseers are onboard but they stay on ship to heal wounded and tend to the trees that form the base of the ships. Death masks will range out to give the other onboard troops easier access to enemies.

The Ry'lai have metal working, sentient homes, enclave standard language, bio luminescence, natural firebombs, weak combustion engines, primitive blunderbusses, pipe work, flying battleships, natural flight.

Voodoo

The voodoo webway

Through a twist of fate and the meteors mutating properties the Ry'lai population have gained the ability to "see" the threads of life. Any species evolved to survive and linked with the circle of life can be influenced by Ry'lai who have learned to focus their innate powers. In doing so many of the Ry'lai have the mantle of Webseer. These Ry'lai are predominantly healers, but there are a small sect of Ry'lai known as Death Mask. In larger groups the Webseers can perform more powerful effects.

The Death Mask Ry'lai use their influence on the threads of life to amplify the pain they inflict. Wounds they leave fester instead of seal, a bruise becomes and aching thump, and head aches are common for those who engage the ash painted Ry'lai. Their weapons are 6 frilla sapling daggers. Small frilla saplings that are grown to grasp metallic blades. Because they are still alive the Ry'lai can use their webway powers to make the daggers "dance" making them hard to follow and harder to block.

Leadership

Alc'mund

The largest frilla tree of the central continent. The size of 8 large frilla's merged together by the power of the meteor. Its wisdom is huge, and it helps its young charges as best it can. When it connects to other frilla a portion of its mind is left with them. In this way Alc'mund is the ultimate knowledge base for the Ry'lai connecting all of the war-trees. Its ability to calculate was further increased by the 10 large frillas that were formed to create an outer wall for it.

It also serves as the Ry'lai capital and major flagship. Think large floating island with an outer ring of 10 interconnected frilla that serve as homes, forges, academies, and hospitals. They also serve as an outer wall to protect the massive central tree.

Dakkon

The first true leader of the Ry'lai. Rose to power after being touched by the meteor that forced the Ry'lai down their evolutionary path. Fought the previous Ry'lai elder for control and won. Led the advancement of the flying frilla as homes, and formation of the Webseers. As an incredibly powerful seer he powered out a webway connection that let him affect the entire central continent. The effects of which were minor but allowed the Ry'lai to realize they needed to meet the other groups. In his passing his mind was allowed to meld with the greatest of the flying Frilla, Alc'mund. His mind is not fully coherent in the great tree but he does help guide his people when he can.

Council

After Dakkon's passing the Enclave required new leadership to help the Ry'lai. One of each of the three main groups of Ry'lai was called to create a council to guide their people. Saki, the engineer, a forward thinker that was always looking to create new solutions to problems. Urza, an extremely old frilla speaker that has a strong connection to the frilla and all of their knowledge. Fal'kest, a prodigy among Webseers that helped to pioneer group webway use.

As of the insect war Saki and Urza are with Alc'mund over the Hitangan western fortress. Fal'kest's war-tree has crashed on the eastern front and become a sort of safe zone on the war front.
