Homebrew Bapho Species Details

Bapho are a bipedal Goat race. They are extremely rare as only a single Bapho lives on each mountain peaks. They are literally just goats that walk on two legs. They are however smart and offer random knowledge to travellers, however the knowledge isn't always useful.

Bapho are the only race Fungoids trust as Bapho are complete pacifists, not even defending themselves if attacked. However, they are very safe as all races of Gaea shun and look down on anyone who kills a Bapho, most races having it as a crime in their civilizations.

What the other races of Gaea dont know, Bapho are actually very lazy. They don't sit at the top of a mountain out of some mystic wisdom, they just cannot be bothered to do anything else.

Bapho Traits

Wisdom...maybe, Unnaturally light, Too much effort

Wisdom...maybe

Bapho know a lot of knowledge, but its not always useful. When you are asked to roll a skill test for something other then a physical task, you may instead roll a D20 and follow the below results:

  • 1-10 - fail, you know some very useless information on the subject 
  • 11-20 - pass, you know something useful to the subject 

if you would gain advantage for this skill test, when you use this trait, follow the steps below instead of rolling two D20:

  • Advantage - Re-roll a failed check 
  • Disadvantage - Re-roll a successful check

Unnaturally light

Bapho are so lazy, that evolution has adapted their bodies to weigh nothing. This allows them to be carried by any other creature so that they can actually move around the world. They can also balance on pretty much anything. Should a Bapho need to move for any reason, they tend to stand on other creatures as they move around the world

You weigh nothing and can ignore the size restriction for riding on other creatures. You also have perfect balance

Too much effort

Bapho would rather sit and do nothing. Even if they are in danger, they would rather just sit and accept it. When ever you do a physical skill test or attack, you must roll a D6. On a roll of a 1, you have disadvantage for that test or attack.

A benefit to living a lazy life, any rest for you is considered a good rest. Short rests for you give the benefit of a long rest instead. But you must sit and do nothing for the duration of the rest.
