Chameleon Vastayah Traits
Your Chameleon Vastayah has the following traits:Ability Score Increase
Your Charisma score increases by 2, and either your Dexterity or your Intelligence increases by 1 (your choice).
Age
Vastayah age slower than humans, and reach an average age of 150 years.
Alignment
Vastayah align the way that nature does, and nature always finds its way. There is no real race-wide preference for good or bad alignment within the vastayah race, but they are never lawful, as they cannot tie themselves to the law.
Size
Chameleon Vastayah are slightly smaller than humans, averaging around about 5 ft. Your size is medium.
Speed
Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Change Appearance
As an action, you can transform your appearance or revert to your natural form. You can’t duplicate the appearance of a creature you’ve never seen, and you revert to your natural form if you die.
You decide what you look like, including your height, weight, facial features, the sound of your voice, coloration, hair length, sex, and any other distinguishing characteristics. You can make yourself appear as a member of another race, though none of your game statistics change. You also can’t appear as a creature of a different size than you, and your basic shape stays the same; if you’re bipedal, you can’t use this trait to become quadrupedal, for instance. Your clothing and other equipment don’t change in appearance, size, or shape to match your new form, requiring you to keep a few extra outfits on hand to make the most compelling disguise possible.
Even to the most astute observers, your ruse is usually indiscernible. If you rouse suspicion, or if a wary creature suspects something is amiss, you have advantage on any Charisma (Deception) check you make to avoid detection.
Sticky Hands
You can climb walls and ceilings at a speed of 20 ft. Additionally, you gain a bonus on [Tooltip Not Found] checks that require holding something tightly. Your climbing speed increases to your walking speed when reaching lvl 6.
Long Tongue
You can grab and attack targets that are up to 10 ft away from you. This range increases to 15 ft when hitting level 8.
Divergent Persona
You gain proficiency with one tool of your choice. Define a unique identity associated with that proficiency; establish the name, race, gender, age, and other details. While you are in the form of this persona, the related proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses that proficiency.
Languages
You can speak, read, and write Common and two other languages of your choice.
