The Beenu is an avian race that was first mentioned in The Zarlin Catacombs. The Beenu are a race that predates most of the currently existing races, and are speculated to have existed on the realm since before the arrival of the Sun Dragon Gods. They where known to be very mechanically and technologically advanced, even reaching computer advancement similar to that of early personal computers for humans. However they have been reported to be extinct following a massive genocide orchestrated by Lyn Azveltara. It was revealed that Ghostblade appears to be the last surviving Beenu.
Description
The Beenu are a avian, bipedal beings. They appear to be completely covered in feathersm save for their face, which has physical similarities to that of Elves and Dwarves. Their feathers have been shown to be range in various hues of brown. They have the unique aspect among the races of having large wings on their back. Very little else is known about their genetic make up, but Ghostblade appears to have mammal-like breasts under her feathers, however it is unknown if this was due to the nature of her birth from an Elf.
Culture
Not much is known about the Beenu culture. What can been seen is that they are very technologically advanced, with noted creations such as Robots, Elemechs and the Beenu Warmachine, along with several large sprawling facilities filled with technology similar to that of the 1970s of the Old Gods realm. Most, if not all, of the facilities have been rendered abandoned and decayed following the extinct nature of the race, leading other races to build over the ruins, nearly forgetting the race existed at all following the Birth of Magic.
The Beenu hierarchy system is largely unknown, with the only hint being that an unnamed resurrected Beenu mentioned a group known as the "Beenu Elders", who existed in a "Sky Kingdom". Not much else is known about these elders, but the undead Beenu believed them to be able to restore him to his original body.
The Beenu had very little seen relationships with other races. They appeared to be treated very poorly by the Elves, who would kill them nonchalantly before the Birth of Magic. It was even a family of Elves whom poised their supply of Dragon Silver, eventually killing off the species. The Beenu where mentioned to have some connection to the Sandbolds by Tien, and where known to serve the Divine Glamourous, who would occasionally eat them.
Characteristics
- They speak their own bird-like language, as well as the common tongue.
History
The Beenu once lived with the Elves and Highbears before the Birth of Magic. The Beenu created obstacles courses for the Elves which were deadly but since Elves and Highbears could not die before the Birth of Magic, the Elves consider these obstacles courses as "theme parks". The Beenu were advanced with their technology at the time and they said that there will always be progression. The Beenu then became extinct After Lyn Azveltara tainted their silver which made the Beenu incapable of breeding.
Notable Beenu
- Alfie and an Unnamed Resurrected Beenu were resurrected in the Zarlin Catacombs by Morgana Marie using Spirit Vessel in The Zarlin Catacombs.
- The Beenu Apparition appeared when the Players were telling ghost stories to each other in Unexpected Discovery, telling them the story of the Beenu, and answering their questions. She was ghostly, and her finger looked diseased beyond repair.
- Ghostblade: in The Sandbolds, it was revealed that Ghostblade is a Beenu Woman, who was born to Lyn Azveltara. Lyn, hating Beenu with a burning passion, mutilated her and tried to disguise her as an Elf. (This was only revealed through dialogue and therefore should not be taken as hard canon.)

Trivia
- The original concept for the Beenu were the Skygyptians, bird-like people who lived in pyramids in the sky, discussed during the 'Tuesday Talk Stuff' stream on Justin's twitch channel.
- The skeletons of deceased Beenu were temporarily brought back to life by Morgana Marie using Spirit Vessel, drawn randomly from the magician's hat in The Zarlin Catacombs.
- The Beenu had something to do with causing the Birth of Magic, but it is unknown what their exact role in the event was, other than it being accidental.
- In The Senate of Deadlantis, it was confirmed by Rob that the Beenu could, in fact, mate.
