Travelers may now encounter bhrunai as they engage in commerce in bustling city markets or traverse trade routes with their turtle-pulled wagons. They have earned a particularly notable reputation as skilled artisans and craftsmen and are known to pour themselves into perfecting a craft over their long lifetimes. They take great pride in their independence and resourcefulness, relying on their own abilities to solve problems before seeking assistance. | Travelers may now encounter bhrunai as they engage in commerce in bustling city markets or traverse trade routes with their turtle-pulled wagons.

Bhrunai have traditionally preferred either solitude or the company of their own kind, building tiny stilted hovels and forming small communes, usually close to established settlements with which they could trade. Passersby may mistake a group of sleeping bhrunai for mossy boulders. Bhrunai have unique romantic relationships, wherein two who chose to spend their lives together perform a “Melding” wherein two become one. This new bhrunai shares the memories of both mates, but is an entirely new unique individual. 10 to 15 years after a Melding, two to four small, round, pebble-like eggs break off from the bhrunai while it sleeps, which grow into young. | Bhrunai have traditionally preferred either solitude or the company of their own kind, building tiny stilted hovels and forming small communes, usually close to established settlements with which they could trade.

'''Lifespan:''' Bhrunai reach maturity around 10 years of age and live very long lives. Bhrunai do not physically deteriorate until around their 400th year of life when their body slowly begins to solidify as they spend more and more time resting in their stone form. By their 500th year, most bhrunai become stone permanently. | '''Lifespan:''' Bhrunai reach maturity around 10 years of age and live very long lives.
