[[Category: Minor Race, Minor Non-Human Race]]
The Amujati are a relatively primitive sophont species.
- They are a Minor Non-Human Race with a non-humanoid appearance.
Description (Specifications)
A race of psionic semi-aquatic serpentine carnivore pouncers with bizarre spiritual beliefs.
Trilateral HBS-T-AF-NN-T cartilage interior, hemolymph fluids, fine scales.
Physiology & Ecology
They have a trilateral symmetry. Their preferred environment is swampy wetland terrain.
Generally cone-shaped head containing the brain and the sensory organs. Narrow neck, tubular torso, very long tail. Tentacles, flippers.
Outlook
Philosophy: The Amujati have an unshakable belief in the supernatural: the deities control the universe through supernatural means. Anything that can’t be explained naturally is the work of the gods. Anything that can be explained rationally is a manifestation of the deities.
Theology: belief in a defined single pantheon of deities of varying power and abilities, ruled over by one all-powerful god.
Ethics: The Amujati believe in moral absolutism, asserting that there are certain universal moral principles by which the actions of all individuals may be judged. It is generally held that the morality of an action should be based on whether that action itself is right or wrong under a series of rules, rather than based on the consequences of the action. There are, however, strong disagreements within Amujati society about which moral principles are correct and which are incorrect.
Psychology: The Amujati believe in the concept of dualism: all sophont beings have a dual nature, body and spirit. They claim that mental phenomena are, in many respects, non-physical. Body and soul are inseparable in life, and an equilibrium acceptable to the deity must be reached. Upon death, the body decays but the soul travels to the afterlife to be judged by the deities.
