NOT a tribe of criminals. But, a tribe of respected assassins. Often used by the other tribes [Excluding the Malith] to assassinate high value targets. Their Diet which mainly consists of grubs, poisonous fungus, and other dangerous creatures have made their venom evolve to be much more potent than any other tribe. They even harvest their own venom to coat blades and arrows to perform their assassinations.

Warfare

Silent as a still night, unseen like midnight’s shadows. This is the way of the Ya-Kuna, never attacking when they know they can seen. Calculated and precise killers the Ya-Kuna strike without warning and without hesitation hardly ever being seen, the only thing to know that a Ya-Kuna has been there is the trail of dead bodies it leaves in its wake. Armed with daggers and blowguns coated in their own toxin these deadly assassins are never unprepared. The culture of the strangest of the tribe save for the Vela-Drow. Their diet mainly consists of a large grub that to normal Navask would kill them due to the poison they carry. But, the Ya-Kuna have developed an immunity to the toxin and it has actually adapted to increasing the deadliness of their own poison. Ya-Kuna poison is the most lethal neurotoxin on Nagindra. (The traditional dagger carried by Ya-Kuna resembles that of a Kukri.)

Lifestyle

Stalking their targets for hours, days, or even weeks. No one ever sees these assassins or their Lutridea companions coming. Striking with deadly precision and armed with the most potent poisons. The Lutridea of the Ya-Kuna’s abilities in stealth and ambushing marks is unmatched among the tribes. You never hear them, never see them, and if you happen to spot a Ya-Kuna Lutridea...Then it is to late for you because the actually assassin is already sliding his/her dagger into your back. This tribe usually stick to remote and isolated areas of the planet, snaking through dark caverns and tunnel systems they’ve dug. The Ya-Kuna build their homes and settlements from the remains of an cavern dwelling insect that are adult form of the grubs they consume to increase their poison’s toxicity.
