Wind? They worked for the mail service weeks ago. Fastest I ever got my mail, too. Always on time, nice fellow, never had an issue with anyone. It's a little strange for the Eznio Guard to be looking for a Tabaxi, isn't it? He hasn't done anything wrong, has he? Well...last I heard he was heading home, something about a war going on. Hey...where are you going?! -Robin Celentian, dwarf innkeeper

The Rokestro tribe are what many consider to be the 'standard' for Tabaxi: tall and skinny, quick and light on their feet, and gathering tales to sing at a tavern or around a campfire. Though many Rokestro do stick to the stereotype, they do much more than just collect stories. Innately curious about all baubles and trinkets, the Rokestro are concered about the "why" of an item, not the "what."

These Tabaxi are the storytellers of their kind. With a mix of vocal abilities and ranges, they can mimic a variety of creatures and add a depth to their stories that many other bards would be unable to achieve. Often times, if a story is not true or stretched beyond belief, their ability to run far and fast gives them ample time to get them out of sight and to the next tavern, where their storytelling begins again. Rokestro are normally seen in the hot savannah or even deep in the deserts. The black markings running around their eyes and down their noses act as a blocker for the sun. With it, they can keep their eyes on what matters most: lunch.

Masters of Mimicry.

Rokestro are often seen paired with a Kenku, a small bird-like creature that communicates through mimicked sounds. The Tabaxi will begin talking to them, asking of a sound or noise they particularly like; the Kenku will make that sound, like the clashing of swords, and the Rokestro will mimic it. Sometimes, a Kenku and Rokestro duo will have the attention of a town square or tavern, filling it for several nights. These Tabaxi are quite loved at festivals and large gatherings. 

Fast, Not Furious.

This tribe of Tabaxi are the fastest due to their light foot and slim body. Other Tabaxi clans employ a Rokestro to deliver messages between tribes and often, to nearby cities to ask for aide. With their talented tongues, messages are received with speed and flair. Often times, a Rokestro will be paid as a negotiator for visiting dignitaries.
