Homebrew Feltzi Species Details

Fiery Deer Kin

Proud of their draconic/fey lineage, the Feltzi are the ember loving deer humanoids of the forest! With a mainly humanoid body, scale patches across their body, and deer like tails, they tend to live in small villages hidden within nature. While men tend to grow more deer like antlers, the women tend to grow horns similar to a dragons (the draconic horns tend to be charcoal grey/black and slant back with a light curve upwards at the end). The majority of their scaley patches tend to show in the legs and become more sparse as you go up the body, some Feltzi even tending to have legs fully covered in scales. Some Feltzi tend to have a black, deer like nose, but it's rather uncommon. Lastly, Feltzi's often tend to have pointy ears similar to that of a deer!                                                                                                                                                                                       -Created By Twitch.tv/Nitsify

 

Natural Pacifists

The Feltzi's naturally lean to the lawful good alignment, but can tend to stray from their nature. Good aligned Feltzi's scales and fur tend to be pastel/bright, neutral aligned Feltzi's tend to have middle grounded coloring to their scales and fur, and evil aligned Feltzi's tend to have dark colored scales and fur patches. If a Feltzi becomes lawful evil, black scales will begin to grow amongst their scale patches. If they drift to a neutral evil alignment, the Feltzi will grow an exposed bone layer on parts of their face along with the black scales. Should a Feltzi become chaotic evil, light layers on bones will grow on random places of the body where scales do not occupy. These bones act as armor for an evil Feltzi granting them a +1 to their armor class. Should a seasonal or a noon born Feltzi become evil, they would gain necrotic resistance while a midnight born Feltzi would gain immunity to necrosis. (The +1 ac must be added manually as I'm not sure if there is a way i could program that to activate for specifically evil aligned. Let your dm know to make sure they are okay with the bonus!)

Dependable Traditions

Dependability and sustainability is highly treasured in the Feltzi culture. Traditionally, the Feltzi dedicate themselves to a cause in their village, but from time to time they choose to dedicate themselves to a cause outside of their home! In most villages, the Feltzi have a social class tree that determines the Feltzi's place in society and the job they may start with. In order for a Feltzi to climb the ranks to obtain a better life/social standing, they must show that they dependable enough (ex. a Feltzi farmer would have to be more plentiful with their harvests than the average farmer to climb to a cozier/higher standing lifestyle! Due to this social standing hierarchy, lower end Feltzi often end up leaving their villages or grow to accept their social standings and strive for the average sustainability/efficiency rather than striving for better than average results.

Social Tendencies

The Feltzi love to craft, brew, and experiment! Similar to the dwarves, they love to dabble with all sorts of mechanical things! From automated gates to golems, the Feltzi love to tinker with any idea that comes to mind! That being said, their material choices are rather unique. While most artificiers would lean towards metal gears and sturdy, mined materials, the Feltzi lean towards more natural materials that can be found directly in their forest above ground. Stone, logs, leather, leaves, feathers, you name it! 

While some Feltzi happily tinker, some prefer to mess around with chemicals, alcohols, and other concoctions! Need a health potion? They have you covered! Need a beer that will grant you Dragon's Breath for an hour? They already have it made for you! Never underestimate a Feltzi's crafting and brewing abilities!

Feltzi Names

Feltzi tend to have village nicknames as a showing of endearment towards the villagers. These nicknames often come to be by something a feltzi did as a child, their personality, or the time and season they were born!

Seasonal Feys

Due to their draconic lineage, they still inherit their ancestors breathe. Feltzi with dark red scales and tails are of the fire element, Feltzi with redish/purple scales are of the acid element, Feltzi with blue scales are of the lightning element, Feltzi with silver/white scales are of the ice element. On rare occasions, Feltzi born in the dead of night are born with black/charcoal grey scales inheriting the necrotic element.
