Homebrew Cait Sith Species Details

Light hearted and sometimes fierce, this group of island dwelling cats run the seas with an iron fist or a warm touch! You wouldn't want any other to be your ship's mage, or first mate, this is a hot topic indeed. With their charismatic air, and deep bellied laughs, they lay down all your fears with a decisive claw and a well-meaning chuff.

— Blake Whisperwind, Anchors Away

Cait Sith are sometimes called sea cats, as many of these individuals run ships, fishing villages and all things nautical. They are anthropomorphic felines; giving them some unusual racial features that help while out at sea. With their home in the Island Nations Federation, these felines have grown and evolved on the sea's winds of change and trade, melding them to what they are now. A Cait Sith embrace the fluid, fluctuating tide of the sea, going with the flow, but the hells hath no fury like a feline scorned, just like the temperamental ocean. 

Call of the Sea

Cait Sith hear the call of the sea from a very young age, causing them to naturally gravitate towards nautical professions.  You have three sub races to choose from while creating a Cait Sith: Fishermen, Keeper, Ferran. 

 

 Anchors Away

Cait Sith inhabit the large island nation of Ryube, which is a culturally rich and diverse city that acts as a trade hub for the island nations. Cait Sith have a tendency to wander the seas once they are old enough to do so. Many of the Fisherman and Ferran take the Ranger or Fighter path to further improve their ability to use their bows and spears, where as Keepers tend to take up the magical arts in some way shape or form. There are a few unique racial subclasses that only Cait Sith can take.
