Almur (sg. Almar) are the prototypical almarkin, originating in the towerward lands of Andinor. Their silken fur and elongated features give the almur a very special, almost elegant look. It is unsurprising, therefore, that the vast majority of them are quite arrogant. This is especially true of the inhabitants of the Almadur peninsula, being closer to the Tower and therefore ever so slightly corrupted by the pure talent radiating hence.
Appearance
Distinguishing features
Almur are distinctly elongated. This is no surprise–such is the effect of the Tower's light upon birth. A stereotypical almar is tall and thin, almost appearing delicate. Their ears are long and, when resting, angle backwards, slightly up, and slightly outwards. Their tails also share their general tendency towards exaggerated length, normally fluffy and about as long as their torso. A proper almar will always take good care of their beautiful tail, grooming it with regular, obsessive fervour.
Fur
An almar's fur will vary greatly with their lineage. One from Almadur will present a wavy and long solid colour coat ranging from silver to white, and a very noticeable mane of longer, curlier fur covering their neck, chest and nape; another one from further inland will present curlier, denser fur all over; yet another nearer to the area where there is much intermixing with faoil will be much more vibrantly patterned, but if they are from an area with vidar intermixing, they will present straight and dark solid colour coats.
Eyes
An almar's eyes are special: also seemingly elongated, they tend towards a distinctive piercing gaze, their eyebrows above contributing to this sharp look. They range in the greens and blues, less commonly reddish browns and ambers.
