Homebrew Ewok Species Details
Ewoks are curious, inventive, and skillful survivalists and combatants. They use their small size (about 1 meter [3'3.5'']) to their advantage and camouflage, bewilder, and throw rocks in a fight. They can ably construct tools such as gliders and catapults, and can build traps, all from the resources of the forest. Ewoks despise the Galactic Empire and are friends of the Rebel Alliance, having played a major role in the defeat of the former at the battle of Endor. They proved their ability to defeat advanced technology using sticks and rocks.
Ewok Traits
Ewoks know how to survive in the woods and can devise many useful contraptions from wood and rock.Ability Score Increase
Your Dexterity score increases by 2, and your Constitution and Wisdom scores increase by 1. This trait can not bring any of the 3 above 20.
Darkvision
Accustomed to the night sky and twilit hunts, Ewoks can see in the dark to a range of 60 feet. You can treat dim light within that radius as bright light, and darkness in the radius as dim light. You can't determine colours in darkness, only shades of grey.
Natural Camouflage
When you make a stealth check, your bonus to the check increases by 6 if you are in a natural environment with something to hide behind.
Forest Engineers
Ewoks can create many useful devices from only rock and wood. Given the use of 2 actions to do so, you can create a simple item such as a spear, glider, or trap, when you have the materials to do so. If you or your creation takes damage, the process must restart.
Ewok Weapon Training
If you do not have it already, you gain proficiency in spears, shortbows, clubs, and handaxes.
Languages
You learn a language of your choice. Ewoks are not very good at speaking anything not in Ewokese, and so most often know but chose not to speak other languages.
Intuitive Survivalists
Ewokese
You know Ewokese, the language of the Ewoks. This is a form of communication used by Ewoks to speak, as most know no other languages. Ewokese is not an official language, as the only way to learn is from somebody who knows it themselves, as the language is extremely rare. All Ewoks speak Ewokese, and are rarely willing to teach it.
Alignment
Most Ewoks are CG, N, or CN. They have aspects of chaos and good, as well as many times neutrality. Some are of lawful alignment, and very few are evil, but there are some Ewoks who live in evil, and they are generally exiled from tribes.
