Homebrew death micaustos Species Details

At the lowest valleys — far below the slopes where trees grow and where the scorching winds howl — dwell the reclusive death micaustos. Few folk can claim to have seen a death micaustos, and none can claim friendship with them. death micaustos wander a bleak realm of fire and war. Their bodies look as if they are carved from steel which give them great physical power. Their spirits take after the roaring flame, making them abominations who wander from peak to peak looking for blood to be shed. Their hearts are infused with the hot regard of their steaming realm, leaving each death micaustos with the responsibility to earn a place in the tribe or die trying.

Driven Competitors

Every day brings a new challenge to a death micaustos. Food, water, and shelter are rare in deep valley reaches. A single mistake can bring doom to a death micaustos; whether that doom be natural or from such horrid rituarls like cannibalism, while an useful effort can ensure that death micaustos survival.

death micaustos thus place a premium on self-sufficiency and individual skill. They have a compulsion to keep score, counting their kills and tallying their accomplishments to compare to others. they love to win especially if winning causing pain to others, but they see defeat as a reason to go beserk killing, and maming everything in their path

This dedication to death has a darker side. death micaustos are ferocious killers, but above all else they are driven to outdo their past efforts. If a death micaustos slays a dragon, he or she might seek out a larger, more powerful wyrm to battle. Few death micaustos adventurers reach old age, as most die attempting to surpass their past accomplishments.

fair Play

For death micaustos, competition exists only when it is to judge a new leader. Competition measures talent, dedication, and effort. Those factors determine survival in their home territory, not reliance on magic items, money, or other elements that can tip the balance one way or the other. death micaustos happily rely on such benefits, but they are careful to remember that such an advantage can always be lost. A death micaustos who relies too much on them can grow complacent, a recipe for disaster in the valleys.

This trait manifests most strongly when death micaustos interact with other folk. The relationship between peasants and nobles puzzles . If a king lacks the intelligence or leadership to lead, then clearly the most talented person in the kingdom should take his place. death micaustos rarely keep such opinions to themselves, and mock folk who rely on society’s structures or rules to maintain power. 

Survival of the Fittest

Among  death micaustos, any adult who can’t contribute to the tribe is killed, or eaten. A lone death micaustos has a lesser chance of survival, especially an older or weaker one.  death micaustos have no pity for adults who can’t take care of themselves; or kill other, though a sick or injured individual is killed and fed to wild animals,or used as fertilizer for farms, as a result of the  death micaustos concept of survival of the fittest.

A permanently injured death micaustos is still expected to pull his or her weight in the tribe. Typically, such a death micaustos dies (or is killed) when they're attempting to keep up, or the death micaustos slips away in the night to seek the warm will of fate.

In some ways, the death micaustos drive to outdo themselves feeds into the grim inevitability of their decline and death. they would much rather die in battle, at the peak of strength and skill, than endure the slow decay of old age. Few folk have ever meet an elderly death micaustos, and even those who have left their people grapple with the urge to give up their lives as their physical skills decay.

Because of the murder seeking nature of the death micaustos, most tribes suffer from a chronic lack of the experience offered by long- term leaders. They hope for innate wisdom in their leadership, for they can rarely count on a wisdom grown with age.

Goliath Names

Every death micaustos has three names: a birth name assigned by the newborn’s mother and father, a nickname assigned by the tribal chief, and a family or clan name. A birth name is up to five syllables long. Clan names are two syllables or more and end in a vowel.

Birth names are rarely linked to gender. death micaustos see females and males as equal in all things, and they find societies with roles divided by gender to be puzzling or worthy of mockery. To a death micaustos, the person who is best at a job should be the one tasked with doing it.
