Skantoans are an intelligent humanoid species native to Skantos that comprise a majority of the planet's population, notably being visually nearly identical to Homo Sapients (suggesting that one may be a descendent of the other, though which this would be is unclear) despite being considerably less technologically advanced. Skantoans are highly social, living in complex social structures such as families, kinship networks, and political states, leading to the development of various values, social norms, languages, and rituals with a particular fascination on their highly complex and all-encompassing spiritual beliefs. Skantoans tend to be much more peaceful than most species despite being divided for most of their history, with wars amongst themselves being extremely infrequent (though in the past conflicts against other species were more common), which appears to be a trend which is likely to continue after the War of the Triple Alliance saw them largely unify under one confederacy known as the 'Sacred Union of Skantos'.
While most earlier settlements were dependent on natural resources used for subsistence, the widespread usage of Magic among the Skantoans has allowed them to adapt to various climates which otherwise wouldn't be easily liveable for them such as the frigid tundras of Senkher or the volcanic wastelands of Karakoram. Certain technological advancements have also allowed such settlements to exist, though Skantoans tend to be quite technologically reactionary which has prevented widespread adoption of more advanced technologies such as basic electricity beyond steam power in certain larger settlements. Despite their lacking technological advancement, Skantoans have an average life expectancy of roughly 68 Years, likely thanks to their highly advanced intellectual skills (which allow them to easily teach generalizable information and communicate/creaste complex concepts) allowing them to construct large settlements and utilise medicinal treatments.
