The Sunmane Path is a mobile monastic order that travels with the prides and hunting bands of Sanama. Its monks are lionin and tabaxi ascetics who train through running, wrestling, hunting, climbing, and ritual combat beneath the open sky. They have no permanent monastery — their monastery is the road, the grassland, the hunt, and the campfire after blood has been spilled.
Mane-Speaker: Mane-Speaker Rukhar Sun-Eater
An old lionin monk with a torn ear, golden-gray mane, and scars across his ribs from a failed challenge he still speaks of proudly. He is loud, direct, and laughs at pain. He believes defeat is useful only if it makes the next hunt cleaner.
