Homebrew [E5E] Arragan™ Species Details

Characteristics

This once hostile race has evolved in many ways from their ancestors of the Sundering Wars, now the free-thinking engineers Arragan crave innovation and invention over war and bloodshed. This does not mean they wont defend themselves when backed into a corner, regardless of their new progressive nature the Arragan still have plenty of bite left in them coupled with incredible ingenuity they are still a formidable race in the land of Loridyium.

Appearance

The Largest Arragan in recent years clocked in at just under 8ft and the smallest ever documented was 5'2. The scales depend on heritage, some can be jutting out and sharp to the touch, others can smooth rounded disks and incredibly hardened. Scale pigment is also based on heritage, the fathers scale color tends to be the most dominate and Arragan's can have anything from deep red scales all the way to a slight bluish hue. Only the males grow horns but this is no longer a sign of power like their ancestors believed, they are now more of an inconvenience to the Arragan as they tend to get in the way when working on their next big invention. It is also customary requirement that Arragan mothers file the claws of their offspring down when they become old enough to begin assisting as apprentices in and around the city Ratchet, as this will allow an easier grip on tools and wont damage anything that they are tasked to work on.

Capital City

Under the Deldorin Mountains away from prying eyes lies the city of Ratchet, the Arragan Capital teaming with inventive citizens helping create the next big thing, whether its steam power or runed metals there is no stopping progress in Tinker Town.
