When I first read your post, I thought... they want northern barbarians only more neaderthal than orc, ogre or half giant. You could use any of those stats but just keep describing them as neaderthals. OR
go into Browse 'Homebrew Species'... and plug in Neanderthal. You get one page of homebrews. ANd some seem to be looked at pretty hard.
I am working on a world and I need a Neanderthal template. Anyone have one? Its just going in a homebrew. Nothing that will be for sale.
There is no official Neanderthal race in Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition, but homebrew options offer several distinct interpretations.
I googled 'dnd 5e neaderthal' and got a couple pages of potential links for 3rd party material or even D&D wiki 'race variants'.
