Homebrew Gareenian Species Details
Until they cease to exist, there will always be a threat. Whether they are starting a war or attempting to end it, Gareenians find their way into every conflict.
In the eyes of the rest of the world, Gareenians are a very endangered race. Behind dragonborn and kitsune, the Gareenian race is a very uncommon race with only 20 or so living known members. A possible reason for the lack of Gareenians in the world is their constant engaging in other races' wars. It was not until the world opened its eyes that everyone saw just how involved they were. Constant war leads to huge numbers dying off at once. As of today, there are so few, that they are never seen on the battlefield standing together as an army.
Otherwise, the language and culture is the same as the rest of the human race.

To the untrained eye, it is nearly impossible to tell the difference between a Gareenian and a common human. However, some difference between the two is that Gareenians are always slightly taller than a common human and their hair color is never lighter than a hazel brown. Also, the Gareenian is noticeably more athletic, Even without proper training, the average Gareenian will often beat the most athletic of humans in any type of game or sport involving physical strength and endurance. Most Gareenains tend to wear Dark green clothing and chain mail or armor when they leave their homes for long journeys. Perhaps it is for protection or good luck, but nobody knows why they do it. Not even the Gareenians themselves can remember the origin of this tradition.
