Cortex

Cortex: While physically weak, the small, quiet, calm Cortex make up for their diminutive size with an uncanny intelligence. They are exceptional researchers and scientists. While clever with defense, Cortex are not quick to invade neighbors. It is a mistake to consider them benign, for when it comes to betrayal, nothing will stay their hand from justice. Stubborn is an apt description. They’ll fiercely pursue a grudge, so care should be given to maintain a decent reputation among their kind.
