Homebrew Clown Species Details

 Clowns appear similar to humans, but with pale white skin and colorful markings on their face, as well as (contrary to popular belief) their body. They also have sharp teeth, vibrantly colored hair, and somewhat exaggerated facial features. Like tigers, no two clowns have the same markings.

There was originally a single clown society however after a religious schism their society split in twain.

The Jolly Clown's society primarily reveres the day side of the god Sylagar. This led to their society's whimsical mischief to be focused on bringing joy to the world and easing people's pain and suffering.

The Murderous Clown's society however primarily reveres the night side of the god Sylagar. This led to their society's whimsical mischief to be more focused on bringing pain and suffering to the world and terrorizing those around them.

Both societies agree however that it is best for their japes to start small and gradually ramp up in both scale and intensity. Because of their duality and tendency to start slowly most races are wary of clowns of all types as it is difficult to tell the two types apart at first.
