Panomi
The Panomi (Delang: паномі (panomi), IPA: /pa:nu:mi/, Kirsh: pa:nu:mi, CXS: pa:nu:mi) (litt: almost homi) is an ancient intelligent humanoid species living in southern Illte. The only know Panomi village, Pawophi, lies in the forest south of Karomill.
The Panomi are shorter than the Homi, has shorter, but deeper heads, highly flexible feet, two opposable thumbs on their right hands, but only one on their left, each hand having 5 fingers. Their legs and forearms are heavily furred, though their hips, upper arms, and torso are less hairy, thus the Panomi wears clothes, usually made of fur.
From the brief encounter with their village, scientists has gathered that the Panomi has an highly organized social structure, including a village council. Their language is quite different from Delang, but seems to be rich in vocabulary. From their previous encounters with Homis they had learned several Delang words, and thus greeted the Illomi delegation with a rough Qardh. Their language is rich with vowels, tones, breathing, and saw tones, in addition to some clicks.
