Homebrew Dohwar Species Details

Dohwars are short, pudgy, flightless avians that look and move like penguins. They are inveterate merchants, always looking for an opportunity to turn a profit. Dohwars conduct their dealings in secrecy, preferring to do business in dark alleys and out-of-the-way places even when the items being bought or sold aren’t illegal or dangerous. They tend to dress in a garish mishmash of clothing, but many of them also shroud themselves in hooded cloaks. A group of dohwars is called a cartel. Dohwars are mostly from Wildspace, but a few of them often travel to the material plane in search of wealth, glory, or other things they consider necessary.

The average dohwar stands 3 feet tall and has bright plumage. Instead of wings, it has arms and tiny hands.

Dohwars prefer to communicate through a form of telepathy in which they stay in mental contact with other creatures by means of a silent, focused meditation they call merging.
