Homebrew Catalus Species Details
Catalus' are humanoid creatures with a set of cat ears and tail. They are blessed with the reflexes, heightened senses, ability to see in the dark, and agility of their feline counterparts and can shift into said creatures at will or occassionally when startled (varies depending on the Catalus). Catalus's body types often mimic Elven figures, lithe and graceful. A rare race to stumble across, many slavers attempt to apprehend them and sell them at high prices as slaves or servants to nobles or crimelords. Scattered throughout the world, their real homeland remains a mystery to all but them, each Catalus somehow knowing how to return home.
