Homebrew Lanae Species Details
Counting Sheep
Often found in mountainous areas, Lanae live in social enclaves at high altitudes. That being said, Lanae culture is welcoming to outsiders, and Lanae merchants regularly trek up and down their mountains, trading goods in both directions.
Lanolinic culture emphasizes social bonds and communal duty. As such, many Lanae who become adventurers do so for the good of their enclave - whether that means honing their skills, preparing for a threat, or searching for lost members.
Lanae are also known for having calming effects on those around them, to the point that the mere thought of them is often used to lull children to sleep.
