Description Kleosi appear to be human, but a little bigger.
Procreation With each other, to make more Kleosi. With other pseudohumans/humans, it follows the mother. With other races, it varies.
Magic One in a hundred men have heart magic, but one in five hundred women have heart magic. One in five hundred men have soul magic, but one in a hundred women have soul magic. Mind magic is not unheard of, and body magic is usually relegated to the more nefarious members of the race. Void is possible, but unlikely. Faith is common, usually to the Brave Warrior.
Special Powers A Kleos has three inhuman powers: the ability to sense a known enemy when they come near, the ability to acquire great strength through earning glory, and the ability to inspire lesser beings through sheer presence and courage.
Weaknesses A Kleos is usually very unaware of danger. Kleosi are obsessed with earning glory without thought to the dangers. And Kleosi never, ever back down.
Culture Kleosi died out on Wath, but were restored by their descendants, the progeny of Wathites that had interbred with them dedicating themselves to the Brave Warrior. Kleosi are dedicated to earning glory, and they will do anything if they believe it will earn them favor--but they do not generally seek infamy. The very few who do become infamous go very, very infamous, though.
