Homebrew Advanced Monkey. Species Details

Found throughout the multiverse, monkeys are as varied as they are numerous, and they endeavor to achieve as much as they can in the years they are given. Their ambition and resourcefulness are commended, respected, and feared on many worlds.

A Broad Spectrum

Advanced monkeys are more physically diverse than other common races.  An individual can stand from 3 feet to a little over 5 feet tall and weigh from 80 to 220 pounds. Advanced monkeys have thin fur which can be in black, brown, ginger, red, straw or sometimes blue and white. A lot of advanced monkeys have a dash of human blood, revealing hints evolution. Advanced monkeys reach adulthood in their late 20s and live for about a century.

 

EVERYONE'S SECOND-BEST FRIENDS

Just as readily as they mix with each other, advanced monkeys mingle with members of other races. They get along with almost everyone, though they might not be close to many. 

Humans. "They are like us but smarter and more weird"

Dwarves. “They’re stout folk, stalwart friends, and true to their word. Their greed for gold is their downfall, though.”

Elves. “It’s best not to wander into elven woods. They don’t like intruders, and you’ll as likely be bewitched as peppered with arrows. Still, if an elf can get past that damned racial pride and actually treat you like an equal, you can learn a lot from them.”

Halflings. “It’s hard to beat a meal in a halfling home, as long as you don’t crack your head on the ceiling—good food and good stories in front of a nice, warm fire. If halflings had a shred of ambition, they might really amount to something.
