Chīsana

Chīsana, singular Chīsanai, are a race of humaoids native to Lamasery which superficially resemble Halflings.

Physiology
Chīsana are the closest analog that Lamasery has to the Halfling or other small folk racial phenotypes found throughout the multiverse. Male Chīsana average two and a half feet in height, though individuals range between two feet and three and one quarter feet. Being more lean than their otherplanar counterparts, average weight for a healthy male Chīsanai is twenty pounds. Females trend slightly higher in both height and weight.

The eyes of a Chīsanai are normally noticably larger than those of a Halfling, with pronounced epicanthic fold. Eye color tends toward darker colors, with the most common being brown and hazel. Blue eyes are considered particularly lucky, while green eyes are considered very bad luck.

Hair is normally kept very tightly trimmed by female Chīsana and allowed to grow to shoulder length by males. Hair color is more often of a darker shade, with lighter hair being considered ominous.

The light build of a Chīsanai seems to be a response to their environment, with their dexterity being a primary attribute for survival.

Psychology
The psychology of the Chīsana is perhaps their most distinguishing characteristic. Rather than the jovial, casual and mercantile demeanor of the Ilfandrazenaren, Chīsana are almost feral and predatory.
