Homebrew Amazon Species Details
Amazons love to interact with other races, most commonly trading and adventuring. They can get along with almost all races, excluding most evil races since those races tend to be extremely self-interested. Most Amazons are not attracted to men, but the rare love interest does arise. Most races are fond of the Amazons for their smithing abilities that are good enough to rival even the dwarves in most respects. Though amazonian craftsmanship more commonly has elaborate designs and is often decorated with pelts or feathers of monsters they have slain.
