Homebrew Ewok Species Details

 

Small and Smart

The Ewoks are sentient, furred bipeds. They are curious individuals that stand about one meter tall. They are extremely skilled in forest survival and the construction of primitive technology like gliders and catapults. They used spears, slings, and knives as weapons; they also used hang gliders as vehicles. They were quick learners, however, when exposed to advanced technology with simple mechanical processes and concepts. Ewoks have a fairly complicated society in their little villages. They assign jobs like hunter/gatherer, builder, or nursery worker. They don't trade things for money, they trade food for building supplies, or weapons for food, stuff like that. They sometimes have very cut-off villages and function just fine all alone, but others rely on the world outside, so they learn Common or one of the other mainstream languages (i.e., not draconic, infernal, primordial etc.). Many times, the only Ewoks who know the exotic languages are scholars or teachers, trying to learn about different species in the world by talking to them.

Personality
