 Rhians are digitigrade horse-humanoids found on Sinai, mostly incorporated into "civilized" life, without a distinct "homeland", per se. In appearance, they tend to be on the larger end of the human-sized range, and also tend to be better muscled ... though some Rhian varieties may be considerably smaller. (Think "Shetland Ponies"...) Whether there's truth to it or not, the stereotypical Rhian is a big, strong lunk, more brawn than brain. Therefore, in Rephidim-dominated societies, they tend toward labor-intensive occupations, and are rarely found in the higher echelons of society or work. Their kind has a fairly inferior digestive system, and they are vegetarians without any choice in the matter. (Eating meat -- and this includes fish and poultry or even bugs -- tends to make them very, very sick.) For Rhian PCs, it is recommended that you have at least 2 points allocated to Strength ("Stronger than Average" -- Major, Novice). Rhians also have a -1 Disadvantage: Vegetarian.
