-The **orghysh** (sing./pl.) are a sapient species - scaly, spindly, and bipedal - native to the [[avishraa:place:sea-of-grass|Sea of Grass]] in western [[avishraa:place:sekhaa|Sekhaa]]. In numbers, technological development, and social organization, they lag far behind the [[takma:|takmar]] or even the [[xtauh:|xtauh]], to both of whom they are distantly related - all three species being [[species:clade:takmid|takmids]].

-The takmar have lived in close proximity to the orghysh for ages - since at least the days of the [[avishraa:community:empire|Sixfold Empire]], if not before - but the two species have had surprisingly little to do with each other until the last dozen [[concept:timekeeping|cycles]] or so.

 ===== Physical description =====
+The orghysh are medium-sized [[species:clade:draconiform]] [[species:clade:hexapod|hexapods]]. They are [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipedalism|bipedal]] and possess two arms, used mostly for manipulation; two legs, used for locomotion; and two [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vestigiality|vestigial]] wings, used mostly for display and thermoregulation. Each limb has four digits: each digit on the arms and legs is tipped with a broad, short claw (the digits of the wings have none).

 The orghysh have, on average, a proportionally bulkier upper body and chest than humans do, with long, wiry arms and a slightly hunched posture. Although they do not typically need to use their arms as an aid to walking - their thick, heavy tails providing some measure of balance - an orghysh remaining in place for any length of time will generally stand or squat with part of their weight resting on one or both sets of knuckles.
