Iani

Appearance
The iani resemble larger dog/fox/squirrel hybrids with different biological and mechanical/automaton-like limbs, they lack necks and regular protruding heads. Instead, they have a sleek automaton-like metal face that starts from their chest and extends to the middle of their back. On each side of their faces, there are large bent "ear-like" metal plates. The iani seem to be able to integrate numenera and other mechanical devices into themselves.

The Legacy
The eight Iani the PCs found in and around the cave ruins to the northwest from Adderstal, claim they have woken up in the ruins after a very long slumber and are now searching for 13 items - the Legacy. They thought the Spire's condensator might be part of the Legacy so they took it. To gather the 13 items is very important to the Iani.

After the PCs offer an item in exchange for the condensator the Iani agree to the exchange after they have seen the PCs item. The item was the stolen triangular rod. An additional deal is made between the Iani and the PCs and that is the PCs will help the Iani out with their quest of finding the Legacy after 7-10 years. During these years the PCs will have to finish their own Legacies first. The iani understands this perfectly.
