Homebrew Wildman Human Species Details

Wildman are considered humanity at its most primal levels.  It is widely suspected that Wildman are not a separate race, but is instead, the inevitable outcome of humans as society collapses and the survivors revert to primal means for survival.  The Wild Men are found in less civilized areas, the arctic north, dense jungles, lost mountain ranges, etc.  As a species, Wildman live a primitive hunter gatherer existence.

Wildman are physically stockier than normal humans, with darker hair colors, much more body hair, and exaggerated canine teeth.  They tend to be more brutish in appearance with slightly longer arms and shorter, more powerful legs.  Some tribes from the more northern extremes tend to be more albino complected with white hair to allow blending with their environment.
