Homebrew Beefolk Species Details
Bee-folk are typically between 2-5 feet tall with insectoid bodies that act as a natural Armour, given their exoskeletal nature. Bee-folk have two sets of arms, along with their one set of legs, mandibles that stretch out from their jaw, long, thin antennae sprout from their heads, and round eyes with glassy hexagonal patterns. Their bodies are soft and fuzzy, with gorgeous patterns of yellow and black swirled across their fuzz, and shimmery, translucent wings poke out of their backs.
Bee-folk do not have names, rather recognizing each other by pheromonal scent, although outcast bee-folk tend to choose a name for themselves that best reflects their personality.
