 //High up in the canopy, orange eyes watch the travellers below. Ears twitch, catching the jingle of coins with each footstep. Every precious piece of gold connecting with each other, ringing bells that only she could hear.

 Brudders are visibly suited to life in the trees with feet that can grab branches and prehensile tails. Their small stature is a benefit in their world, allowing them to quickly escape danger. Their hairless, wrinkly skin ranges from light pink to deep, blueish grey; many Brudders sport patches of both. Some people consider them ugly, assuming them to be simple pests. Brudders who live in the city can be treated poorly, preferring to travel unseen during times when the normal population would be asleep, and in places most people can’t reach.

They seem to have a supernatural ability to locate gold, making them very handy - and potentially lucrative - allies.

-However, they are intelligent and adaptable and after an adjustment period many Brudders learn to observe the common law - or strategically pretend that they follow them.
