Description
Nopons are small, furry beings that, naturally, inhabit villages in forests, although it is not unusual to see them everywhere else. At first, these balls of fluff might seem intellectually undeveloped, ignoring many elements and constructions in their sentences when speaking. However, they are by no means not smart; in fact, they are cunning and persuasive.
Nopons are small and have fur all over their bodies, except in the belly area. They are somewhat round, although many people have referred to them as "talking potatoes". Nopons have six limbs: four thin ones that serve as legs and arms, with their respective little paws, and two bigger ones that resemble some kind of wings growing out from just below the back of their necks, which they use to carry most things thanks to their hand-like ends. All of these physical characteristics allow them to hide with ease, flee from predators in many ways, and even flutter a bit with their wings.
Nopons live throughout the whole world. Not even a volcano is a place tough enough for a Nopon if living there means making profit. Even so, their preferred and natural environment are forests, where they form great communities and build their structures, always respecting the natural environment. If you suddenly find yourself within Nopon territory, fear not, a charming welcoming is coming your way.
Their ways might be different from those of other intelligent species, but that's because all of their needs are always covered in their communities, so Nopon merely develop their societies using what they have at their disposal, rarely creating great, mechanical inventions.
Playing a Nopon
Nopons are simple-minded, but they are also greedy and selfish. They enjoy living with other people and respect social order, however. These attitudes combined drive Nopons towards a very specific profession in life: commerce. The great majority of Nopon are interested in making money for themselves, but there are lots who would prefer to take on other needed professions, becoming doctors, chefs or teachers.
All Nopon see a friend in every intelligent race, and will express that friendship at any moment, calling whatever person whose name they do not know yet "friend". They are also respectful for foreign traditions and cultures, as well as wallets. If you do something for a Nopon, you will get something in exchange, although it typically won't be worth the effort and you'll just get scammed. All and all, whatever a Nopon is doing, they will always think that it helps for the greater good, whether that's actually true or not.
Nopons are also known for their empathy towards animals, being able to understand their body language and communicate back. With this great ability, Nopons make up for what they lack by taming creatures that can help them.
