Ildoar

the Star-Nosed

The Ildoar people live have snouts, tusks, whiskers, and noses like star-nosed moles. Their noses are green because they photosynthesize with chlorophyll. They have four large protruding eyes arranged in two pairs.

This article is still a WIP.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Ildoar have a very good sense of smell. With their four eyes, they also have over 270 degree vision, and each eye can move independently.

In Kugma and Iwati cultures, where the self is conceptualized as a group of entities, the amount of sensory information taken in by the ildoar body can manifest differently for different entities. Each eye can be its own entity, so up to four "eyes" can be "fronting" (experiencing the external world) at once in order to communicate general vision. Some entities may have different visual acuities compared to others in their body family.
