Taer

Originating from the Veralian Plane located on the outer rim of the dimensional web, the Taer are considered one of the most vile and disgusting of sentient races. They dwell in underground tunnels, though most of their agriculture is located on the surface. Endless grape vineyards cover most of their land, stretching across miles and miles with only the occasional swamp to break the endless rows.

Their diet consists of bulbous green frogs which dwell within the deep swamps and the grapes which are grown year round. It is this diet of amphibians and fruit which accounts for their odd ability known as salping in most civilized planes. Combined with their unique rat-like biology, their diet creates a corrosive slime within their stomach. This slime forms along the stomach's wall, and can build up for over a week before it must be released. Taer can force this slime up, using it to 'salp' victims. Once leaving the stomach, the acidic slime seems to lose potency quite rapidly, though during its short-lived usefulness it can easily eat through several layers of thick metal. Its thick and sticky consistency can grasp almost any surface, and the quantity of the slime provides enough coverage to engulf the upper portion of an average sized human.

The Taer resemble humanoid rats, standing four to five feet tall on average. They are bipedal, relying on their thick cord-like tail to provide extra balance. The facial structure is more similar to a rodent, with an elongated snout and whiskers. Taer are covered with thick fur, ranging drastically in color from light tans to black.
