Homebrew Mossfolk Species Details

Silent Giants

Mossfolk are reserved, quiet creatures living in the depths of the deepest forests.

With their lanky features and quiet nature, Mossfolk appear in many myths and legends as forest guardians. They are quite tall, ranging from just over 6 feet to about 8 feet in height. They are slenderer than humans, and surprisingly light, weighing only 120 to 180 pounds.

Mossfolk's coloration of their moss "hair" encompasses many different colors, ranging from blue green to red or yellow. And piercing white eyes that appear as small dots. They also have grand antlers that appear similar to a Moose's.

Mossfolk can live up to 400 years and reach maturity at 50, they often live alone or in small groups for a large portion of their life. They only leave their forests because of wanderlust or when they are forced for one reason or another.
