Homebrew Cyclops Species Details

Growing Up on the street

Cyclopes are exceptionally hardy and durable, out of both a
physical and mental necessity. Living isolated lives, they
possess strength that makes even monsters stay away from
them. They usually grow up in places where mortals do not
register what they truly are, as the Mist obscures their
identity. Of those that do recognize cyclopes, like nymphs and
other mythical creatures, most think of them as ugly, violent
monsters. This makes it easy to understand why cyclopes
shun human societies.
