Homebrew Dug Species Details
Dugs are an aggressive mammalian species native to Malastare that used their upper limbs for locomotion and their lower limbs for grappling. The Dugs have leathery skin which is smooth and some of it hangs loosely around their tall necks only to inflate during the mating season calls. They also possess fin-like ears, a pronounced snout and small beady eyes. They can easily walk on their hind legs, their forelegs, or all fours. They used their four hands to help them move through the trees of their homeland of Malastare.

Due to their ruthless oppression under the Gran who colonized their planet Malastare, the dug people felt the need to throw their strength around to display what little dominance they had. As a result of their slavery and oppression dugs have garnered an ill-temper and became thugs to try and fight out from underneath the Gran's feet.

Dugs are warry of other races doing to them what the Gran had done.
Languages
