Homebrew Glaistig Species Details

The Glaistii[plural of Glaistig] are anthropomorphic goat-like Monstrous Humanoids of impressive size and endowment. Despite playful appearances, they can be devastating spellcasters and very talented diplomats and rogues.  They are known to be extremely long-lived, with the age of 500 years being considered ‘frightfully young’ by their standards, though they understand not all races are as long-lived as they are.

 

Queens of Passion

Master seducers with hearts of gold, Glaistii are borderline infamous for their immense libidos and sex appeal, and they know full well what they're capable of.  Gentle and motherly to a fault, they are known to lead lost travelers they find to civilizations, shelter and protect heroic adventurers out on journeys, and take in orphaned children during times of famine and war.

Upon reaching adulthood, Glastii are known to be very voluptuous of form.  As females are the most commonly seen, it’s unsure if a male would look different if they even exist at all.  They are covered head to toe in soft, velveteen fur, usually white in color though regional variation has been known.  Their eyes are often a vibrant pastel color, such as blue, red, or pink, and their iris shifts shape depending on situations[normal when calm, 6-pointed star when angry, and heart-shaped when using their Seduce ability].  Their attire is usually minimalist, a slim loincloth and bikini being the norm, though Glastii who become active adventurers are known to practice the use of ‘skimpy’ plate mail armor. They cannot use Heavy armor outside of extensive training.

Abroad and at Home

Glaistii are relatively unknown amongst most populations, though it’s rare for one to be actively hated.  Even deadly predators such as dragons and undead have been known to fall for their seduction skills, though in the case of the former, only the younger dragons have been known to completely fall for their charms. Adults remain true apexes of their domain.

Glaistii do have some religious needs of their own, most notably, the Goddess of Erotic Love, Bah-Rhest, is considered their main patron deity and it is believed they were made in her image, a divine being of passion and the arts who loves all around her and treasures those who follow her. Likewise Bah-Rhest's counterpart, Luxeia, is believed to be the dark side of their sexual nature made manifest, an Evil-aligned Goddess of Sex who sates her carnal lusts with her worshippers and satisfies her desires through scheming and planning. Unlike most deities, who reside in the Outer Planes, the Divine Sisters live amongst mortals and are known to wander and roam without disguises or illusions.

Glaistig Names and Languages

Glastii speak Common by default, but many older specimens show a natural penchant for learning Draconic.

As of now, no noteworthy pattern has been shown towards how Glaistii are named.  However, evidence has shown that they instead grant themselves a name once they understand their unique skills.  Example: Remia-Tori Wylder’s given name is a homophone for ‘read me a story’, referencing her talent for storytelling, while her surname, of Clan Wylder, reflects with her innate tendency towards unpredictability.
