Homebrew Beaverkin Species Details

Beaverkin primarily live around water and in woodlands. They are highly social and typically live in family groups/colonies that range anywhere from 4-12.

Beaverkin young are taught at a very young age to build and are usually contributing in their community by 4 years old. Beaverkin are considered mature at 10 and typically live to 50+

Beaverkin also take great pride in the craftsmanship, maintenance and expansion of their lodges, which afford them not only a roof over their head, but a constant food supply, all located somewhere inconvenient to their enemies. Clever beaverkin create sections of their dwellings that can be quickly detached, carried away by the river’s turbulent current, or lay hidden traps that utilize sharp wooden stakes as a deterrent to invasion. Some even keep a hidden chamber of the structure underwater, dry and with an air pocket, where their loved ones can retreat to until such time as a danger has passed.
