Homebrew Yeti Species Details

Physical Description

Yetis are a hulking race of humanoids who live in cold climates. They have thick, snow white fur to help them blend in with the snows. Their arms are longer in proportion to their body, making them resemble a large ape. They are taller than humans and the shortest known yeti was still at least six and a half feet. They have big soles that are thickly skinned for walking in the cold snow. Encounters with yeti largely tell of two variations in the race. One has a monstrous face, circular with small black beady eyes, flaring nostrils, and a wide circular mouth rimmed with teeth. The other has a more human face, alike to a chimpanzee.

Yetis do not commonly wear clothes, as their fur is all the warmth they usually need. However, their faces, hands, and feet are not covered, showing their dark grey skin. Their hand are tough like their feet and have thick nails as humans do on their fingers and toes. Young yeti are born with pink skin which eventually greys as they get older. Yeti have red eyes and the whites of their eyes are yellow.
