Sensitive Frills
The sensitive frills that adorn an axolotl humanoid's head not only add to their distinctive appearance, but also provide them with enhanced sensory abilities. These frills allow them to detect subtle changes in the environment, from shifts in air currents to the presence of nearby predators. As a result, axolotl humanoids have a keen sense of survival and are able to navigate even the most treacherous of environments with ease.
This heightened sensory ability also provides axolotl humanoids with an advantage when making Wisdom (Survival) checks. They are able to pick up on details that others might miss, such as the scent of a predator on the wind or the sound of approaching danger. This allows them to track prey, avoid danger, and survive in even the most inhospitable environments.
Squishy Face
The squishy face of an axolotl humanoid is one of their most endearing features, with its adorable expression and soft, pliable texture. However, this feature can also be a hindrance when it comes to social interactions that require a more intimidating demeanor.
Because of their squishy faces, axolotl humanoids often struggle with intimidation checks. When they attempt to appear intimidating, their facial expressions can inadvertently convey a sense of friendliness or even humor, undermining their attempts to appear threatening. This can be a disadvantage in situations where an axolotl humanoid needs to assert their dominance or intimidate their foes.
Regenerative factor
One of the most remarkable traits of the axolotl humanoid race is their incredible regenerative ability. This ability allows them to recover from injuries and wounds at an astonishing rate, allowing them to bounce back from even the most devastating of blows. Out of combat, an axolotl humanoid can tap into their regenerative ability to regain hit points equal to their level each hour. This regenerative ability is also linked to the axolotl humanoid's natural healing processes. They possess a remarkable ability to regenerate lost limbs and damaged tissue, allowing them to recover from even the most severe injuries.
