Homebrew Displacerkin Species Details

Displacerkin are humanoid creatures who share similarities to the fey monstrosity known as Displacer Beasts. They are a derivative of Tabaxi who were cursed during the rise of Lolth in her overtaking part of the feywilds, twisting it into what we know of today, as the Fey Dark. Despite most assumptions, Displacerkin are no more prone to evil than others. Most Displacerkin feel estranged from the goddess that cursed their lineage, and cling to the Tabaxi way of life. They tend to be nomads and work dangerous lifestyles like mercenaries.
