Dyankhir

Dyankhir are a race found generally in Khalios. They are hybrids of elves, horses and fish, and have each one's abilities (able to breath underwater, very fast). Their dynasty has settles on the northern-eastern shores, and their supreme ruler is the house Astral-Minds, who are an ancient family of priests and researchers that had a great part in the Dyankhirs understanding of the skies.

Appearance and Traits
Dyankhir are one of the most unique intelligent creatures found in Martio: they have the lower body of a horse, up to their stomach area, where it changes to resemble one of a fish, with grey scales. From their chest upward, they have the body of elves. They are slightly taller than average horses; their hoofs are also larger. Some of their beauty ideals include tattoos and colored tails.

They are known to have both lungs and gills, though how these work in harmony is unknown. They are able to breath both underwater and above it, although their diving ability doesn't stretch pretty far. They are, however, great swimmers, and are very fast runners, faster than decent horses. The fastest are known to be able to sprint at 100 km/h for several minutes without minor fatigue.
