Homebrew Gigachad Species Details
Agile, fast, strong, adaptive, charismatic, intelligent, and unflinching... the gigachads are considered by many other than themselves to be the ultimate race. They are both revered and loved as well as envied and hated throughout the world alike.
With high longevity and low birthrates, the gigachads had almost disappeared from the world and were already considered extinct... but the paradigm is about to change.
They travel the world, adapted to nomadic life and, friendly to everyone, encourage other races to cultivate their minds and build their bodies.
Not magical
Despite their enormous physical and mental gifts, gigachads are naturally incapable of practicing magic and their spells are ineffective.
Wise and impassive giants
Gigachads range in size from 6 to 9 feet, and weights from 250 to 550 pounds. Their skin, hair and eye colors are very varied, and both males and females have hypertrophic and muscular bodies. The males also have more body hair and imposing outlined beards.
Neutrals
The gigachads ignore the law and use their own discretion to consider what is right and what is wrong. However, they think carefully and know when to follow the law to avoid larger trouble.
EVERYONE’S FIRST-BEST FRIENDS
Just as readily as they mix with each other, gigachads mingle with members of other races. They get along with almost everyone, though they might not be close to many.
Dwarves. “They are loyal and sincere, although they would live better if they opened their minds and put aside their ambition for gold.”
Elves. “Highly orderly and organized, although I think they should cultivate their bodies more.”
Halflings. “With the diet they follow, they would undoubtedly achieve great muscle-building goals by following aerobic training.”
Humans. “Very varied, but mostly good people.”
Exemplars of Bodybuilding
The powerful, muscular bodies of gigachads are considered both a wonder of nature and an impossibility.
