Incusapien (Skydek)

"'Though these creatures are closely related to humans, they are treated by the magic council as wild monster. These crafty humanoids are strictly carnivorous and their high metabolism forces them into a nomadic lifestyle in constant search for food. Their diets are indiscriminate and have known to lure in humans to feed on them. They are very hostile, but recent studies suggest that Incusapiens may have the potential to be taught how to live among humans peacefully.'"

Incusapiens are a species of humanoids belonging to the genus Homo. They are believed to be the reason behind mysterious disappearances of hikers in the deepest reaches of the Sierra Joyas. They are known to use Transformation Magic and Charm Magic to lure in prey. However, when threatened they are known to harden their skin to be like a tough carapace.

Distribution and Habitat
In spite of their nomadic lifestyles, Incusapiens are limited to the Sierra Hoyas, the mountainous region that lies at every border of Joya. They prefer to steer clear form human settlements.

Behaviour
Incusapiens are known to hunt using their transformation magic as disguises and charm magic as a means of Luring in prey. They possess the same intelligence as human beings, but for some reason, do not create settlements of their own, nor do they use tools (Possibly becuase their enhanced speed and strength allow them to chase running prey). In spite of their intelligence, they are nto very social as humans are except for when they are mating. Though they possess vocal chords, they primarily communicate through the release fo pheromones and thereore have an enhanced sense of smell to detect them. When threatened by a larger monster, Incusapiens harden their skin to a tough carapace and make use of their agility and intelligence to outrun and escape threats. When their disguise is blown, Incusapiens exhibit a more savage and hostile temperament. In spite of this, Incusapiens do have distinct personalities of their own, with more docile ones being able to be captured, tamed then taught how to speak and function well in society as normal human beings. Incusapiens which fall under this category are known as Assimilated Incusapiens. Stewart Hartenfelds is an example

Diet
Incusapiens are strictly carnivorous, as evidenced by their very sharp teeth. Their diets are indiscriminate and may even include human beings and carcasses, making them scavengers as well as carnivores. Becuase of their high metabolism, they are always on the search for food.

Abilities
Incusapiens are only capable of harnessign the power of Transformation magic and Charm magic due to a lacrima that forms within their diaphragm. They possess more inherent strength and speed than human beings and can also harden their skin to a tough shell. Incusapiens often attack using their claws and sharp teeth. Their charm magic often works on almost all types of monsters and creatures (Including humans), but it works as regular charm magic in which it can be remedied by awareness of the monster's use of the magic.
