Homebrew Gendora Species Details

The Gendora

Over the decades of rule from those who thought they were superior then the Gendora, these rat like humanoids have had to eke out a living by staying underground in warrens and caves, or high in trees, avoiding interaction with others. The rare Gendora would leave their home and seek adventure, those who did gravitated towards the rogue, ranger, or fighter or monk professions. Few Gendora become druids, as magic does not come easy to this race, and many wonder why. Perhaps its because in the Primordial War, their god died in battle, and they had no god to replace him. Godless that means the Gendora would have to worship the current gods, and they did not want to do that, seeing them as evil for killing their god. Therefore, the Gendora are a godless race to this day, refusing to take any amount of power from a divine source. They hope that one day, one of their kind might rise to Godhood, though how that will come to pass they do not know. Gendora are versed in many forms of combat, though ranged combat is for the tree dwellers, while the cave Gendora  focus on their monk training, martial training or sneaking training. Gendora monks are the most skilled monks in the land, second only to the monks in Limbo. 

Description

Gendora are covered in fine fur, that ranges colors from dark black to light brown, their eyes are a bit smaller than an average humanoid of their size, but they fit perfectly on the rat head that protrudes from the furry neck. Their arms are long and end in sharp claws, mostly used for climbing, though monks are deadly with them. A thin tail protrudes from their back side, its not much good for anything then being apart of their body language. Gendora feet are also claw like, and bare as are their hands, and this gives me a good ability to burrow in the ground, or climb in the trees. Gendora are medium sized, standing about as tall as the average Human, their life spans are shorter though, they are children until 17, the average adult lives to be 35, though few seldom do. 

Favored Classes

The Gendora favor the Fight, Rogue, Ranger, and Monk classes, they aren't much else as they do not understand the complexities of magic. Therefore, their Rangers tend to be the potion makers, the Fighters make weapons and the Rogues make traps. Monks form the front lines of their small groupings, and when a Gendora group marches one can see a collection of all their favored classes in their ranks.
