Homebrew Bosmora Species Details

Bosmora are humanoid creatures that bear the traits of bison. They are natural hunters, often nomadic, and have an innate understanding of the plains of Erothil. Living primarily in the Sestril Wilds of Ty'vanon, the bosmora are believed to be descended from the bison-faced god of the weather and hunt, Athybos.

Bosmora are bipedal with hooves at the ends of their stout legs, and standard humanoid digits on their hands. Bosmora are covered entirely in thick, matted fur. Their pelts are usually shades of brown which lengthens at the top and nape of their bison heads. Due to their adaption to the woes of varying weathers and beasts, the bosmora have become resilient and wise, known for their keenness of survival. With their deific descent, bosmora are wise by blood and feel a distinct connection to the holiness of the wilderness and skies.
