Asura



The Asura are a short, big-eared subterranian race that has been forced to the surface by the rise of the Destroyer threat. They are the inventors and controllers of Golems and the Asura Gates. They have little respect for other races, viewing themselves better than others due to their intellect.

There appears to be few physical difference between male and female Asura. Males generally have pointed ears and females generally have rounded ears, however there are exceptions, such as Sokka, a male with round ears, and Jezza, a female with pointed ears. As shown by Oggy, there are Asura who consider their ears to be of importance to show their worth and as such those with small ears are often bullied.

The only known Asuran word is "Bookah." Asuran writings are known to be half-mathematical and half-structured.
