Homebrew Emu Species Details

Emus were blessed with intelligence by their main deity Letli, and worship and thank it during various rituals. They speak mainly draconic but also a multitude of other languages. They respect nature and all living things other than humans, who once led a massacre on their kind to wipe them out. The humans nearly succeeded. Emus are very versatile when it comes to what profession you choose or religion you participate in, as long as you don't kill any other living things. If you do, you will be outcast and branded on the beak with the sign of Blaiyd, the murder god. Emus with this brand are normally targets of assassins, as an individual branded emu can be worth up to 5000 GP. Typical classes of emus are bards, druids and monks.
