==Biology==

The Kuvesim are adapted to the dense, vertically-oriented vegetation and constant high moisture, of the Yalu Bamboo Forest. They are very slender and vertically elongated of build, with low mass. This comes with the downside of being fragile and vulnerable to blunt impacts. Their skin is striped vertically in shades of green. They have areas of skin that excrete sticky, resin-like substance on their palms and soles. This allows them to grip on wet, slippery bamboo surfaces. Their hair is a sleek, mossy green coating that is very fine and hydroponic and sheds water instantly.

This coat, being very fine, offers no thermal resistance against cold. Their eyes are large, with vertical, slit pupils that are adapted to maximize depth perception in the dim, dappled light of the canopy. The vision is optimized for distinguishing shapes and movement in a landscape in shades of green and brown. Their ears are short, pointed and outward facing. Inner ears mechanics and balance organs are adapted to instantly compensate for the sway and movement of the high canopy.

This leads to them being disoriented and nauseous when traveling rapidly over flat, stable ground. This as their their system over-corrects for movement that is not present. Noses are broad, flat and with very wide nostrils. This is in order to smell prey in the moist air. The downside of this is their noses are sensitive to dry air, that can lead to headaches. They are specialized to detect the faint, unique smells of the various types of bamboo and forest flora. The teeth are narrow, laterally flattened blades for slicing the tough skin of forest prey.

These teeth are bad at grinding or crushing bone. Their claws are needle-sharp and keratinous to allow for gripping onto bamboo. Their hands and feet have six digits, with two thumbs and two opposing big toes for climbing bamboo. The wrists and ankles have small spurs to anchor to bamboo in high winds. They have an developed sense of "touch" through their feet to allow them to know if a bamboo stalk can take their weight.Joints are highly articulated and flexable, allowing for rapid, acrobatic movements through the dense, vertical bamboo stalks.

These flexible joints are prone to dislocation or sprains if subjected to sudden, lateral impacts. They are able to metabolize the blood of primarily bird and arboreal mammal species better than other clans. The internal organs are high in the torso as to lower the risk of damage from piercing injuries from sharp and broken bamboo stalks near the ground. This also leads to being more vulnerable to crushing damage concentrated around the chest cavity. The bones contain small, internal air pockets. This is part of why they have such a low mass.

It allows them to me quieter landings. These pockets are part of why their bones are less resistant to impacts and high pressure environments. They have Cellular resistance to fungal and bacterial infections that are common to the region. It does not grant resistance to fungal and bacterial infections common in other regions.
