Homebrew Alseid Species Details

Alseid are graceful woodland cousins to centaurs,
blending the torsos of elves with the lower bodies
of nimble deer. Because they rarely venture far
from their wooded glades, some call them “grove
nymphs,” although they’re more closely related to
elves than nymphs.
Alseid see the forest as an individual and a friend.
They are suspicious of outsiders who do not share this
view. Lost travelers who demonstrate deep respect
for the forest may spot a distant alseid’s white tail and
chase after it as it bounces toward a road that leads
out of the forest. Disrespectful strangers may follow
the same tail to their doom.

Alseid Traits

Your alseid character has certain characteristics in common with all other alseid.

Ability Score Increase

Dexterity increases + 2. Wisdom increases +1

Alseid Weapon training

You have proficiency with Spears and Shortbows

Quaddruped

The mundane details of the structures
of humanoids can present considerable obstacles
for you. You have to squeeze when moving through
trapdoors, manholes, and similar structures even
when a Medium humanoid wouldn’t have to squeeze.
In addition, ladders, stairs, and similar structures are
difficult terrain for you.

Wood Friend

When in a forest, you leave on tracks and can automatically discern true north and have proficiency in Stealth

Darkvision

Accustomed to the limited light
beneath the forest canopy, you have superior vision
in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light
within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and
in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern
color in darkness, only shades of gray.
