Homebrew Icke Species Details
They are, on average, taller and faster than humans but not quite as strong. Their culture also is much more rooted in magic than the humans and they take great pride in this. They can range from snake-like slim slimy beings to steady horned dragon type creatures. They are cold blooded and therefore are more susceptible to cold (magic or otherwise). However they are steadier than humans when it comes to diseases and poisons. Having been used to the rough terrain of the west, they are also much better at surviving the unforgiving dessert and the humans often turn to them for help with this. They do have claws and teeth that are great for garbing and climbing, but they are just as likely to bite someone as a human would. Out west they are the minority to the humans and are generally treated as less than equal. They generally stick together because of this.
