Beliefs and Behaviors
Ozug are not the most friendly creatures each loving in there own areas and only showing affection to others when mating. When ozugs are born they are not raised by individual parents but instead are raised communally by the entire tribe. They do not take kindly to other animals trying to take their territory and will defend it with their lives. Despite their small size ozugs can beat foes much much larger than them by rushing them with sharp rocks in a large horde that is practically unbeatable due to their large population.

Their religion is based off of Ozus the powerful. Ozus the wizard passed through the swamps, while trying to make it to a larger settlement, and he stumbled upon some ozugs They drew their weapons and attacked him, so in turn he immediately blasted the ozugs with various spells and they dropped their weapons and bowed before him. From this they say that Ozus created the universe for the ozugs so he could train them against evil to eventually defeat the devil.

Culture and Arts
Ozug have created many portraits usually from the remains of animals. They tend to make these portraits of the the wizard Ozus the Powerful. Ozugs are run by a chief that is considerably larger and tougher than the other ozugs, with some chieftains reaching close to 4ft in height.

International Relations
Most visitors, lethal and non-lethal, are met with overwhelming force through numbers. The ozug use to compete with a species of rodents that would steal food from them, inevitably lead the ozugs to slaughter all of them.

Magic and Technology
Ozugs only have primitive weapons, for now, like axes and spears but the ozug are always looking for new ways to kill something. Ever since ozus passed through their territory they have been trying to harness the power of the weave but have not succeeded yet. The only instance of an ozug getting magical abilities is stories of a nomad ozug in the possession of an elemental energy crystal that is in search of ozus.
