Homebrew Felis Species Details
Felis are often underestimated due to their short stature and cuddly demeanor. Felis come in all shapes and colours. They can grow to be up to 3ft tall and often vary in their weight due to differing habits. Felis range from fiery gingers to the cool calculating cerulean blues. The different sub species of Felis all have their own quirks, but as a species overall they are known as intelligent and gifted adventurers.
Felis can live up to 450 years of age. It is whispered that they possess nine lives and, by some forgotten curse, they burn through each life every 50 years. This has led to many Felis adventurers to set out on a quest to seek and end to their curse and restore the race's full life space. Evn with their cursed nine lives the average Felis outlive most beings. This longevity gives them a larger outlook on life. They make acquaintances easily and friends rarely. Felis live their lives with a good sense of magic. Most Felis are able to sniff out a wizard in the room full of grey-bearded, pointy hat wearing men. Other races connect the innate sense of magic to their origins in being used to aid wizards as a conduit of natural energy.
