Homebrew Limukin Species Details

The Limukin are a small, lean reptilian species of humanoids. They are remarkably gracile, and what they lack in strength and size, they make up for with speed. Their thin, scaly skin comes in a variety of hues, but is typically earthy in colour (greens, browns, and deep yellows). These can be mottled with dark or vivid spots, stripes, and other forms of camouflage. They have relatively short forelimbs.

Limukin Traits

Your Limukin character has the following racial traits.

Ability Score Increase

If you have not already selected ability score improvements earlier in character creation, you may increase your Dexterity by 2 and your Constitution by 1. Alternatively, you may increase one ability score by 2 and another one by 1, or you may increase three different ability scores by 1.

Age

Limukin have short lifespans and mature quickly. They reach adult-size at between 6 and 8 years old, although are not fully mature until they reach 9 or 10 years old. They typically live until their early 20s. The oldest elders will be in their late 20s to early 30s.

Creature Type

You are a Humanoid dinosaur.

Size

 You are a Medium or Small creature.

Speed

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Watcher's Eyes

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.

Envenomed Weapons

As an action, you can coat your weapon (or up to 5 ammunition) with a powerful venom you secrete, envenoming it. When a creature is damaged by an envenomed weapon or ammunition, it must succeed a Constitution saving throw or take 2d4 poison damage and be poisoned for one minute. At level 5, this poison damage is increased to 3d4. The DC for this save is equal to 10 + your proficiency bonus The poison lasts for 1 minute on the weapon or ammunition, as it loses its potency after it dries. You can use this ability once, then require a long rest before you can do so again.

Hunter-Gatherer

You have advantage on Stealth and Survival checks while in a forest, wood, jungle, or otherwise heavily-vegetated area. If you are familiar with the vegetated habitat you are in, you can forage twice as much food as you normally would be able to (this ability stacks with other similar abilities).

Innate Toxicology

You have resistance to poison damage and have advantage on any check or saving throw to avoid or end the poisoned condition.

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common and Archosauric.
