Gowros was a king of scholarly bend and a renowned mystic. He is said to be the one who delved into the particulars of the Polydek curse and came up with the solution that was finally implemented by the Gorgonids and the Progenitors, of whom he was one. All scholarly works begin with a dedication to Gowros and the tales kept alive about his exploits act as morality tales on the value of learning, cultivating one’s intelligence, hard work, and the virtue of altruism.
Medai of this clan have black skin, red slitted eyes, and their hair are living krait snakes.
The Gowros tend to be scholars and mystics who practice several branches of mysticism. They are the least sociable of the clans and maintain an isolationist stance against non-Medai. They tend to be secretive and keep to themselves; even within mixed caravans, they prefer the company of their clanmates. They tend to be craftsmen and artists as well as healers and alchemists. The most accomplished mystics arise from their ranks as well.
