Homebrew Krakenborn Species Details

These are very rare creatures mixed of the kraken and the human. They resemble humanoids, but each of their arms separates into two tentacles with a human hand in between. They can camouflage themselves and have heads that resemble octopus's, with glowing yellow eyes and the sharp teeth of a kraken.

Krakenborn Traits

As a krakenborn, you inherit the following traits of your cephalopod ancestors.

Ability Score Increase

You have a choice in choosing the increases of your ability scores. You can choose to have either your Strength or Dexterity score increase by 2, and the other of those choices by 1. You may also choose to have your Wisdom increased by 1 instead of Strength or Dexterity. Sorry, but I don't know how to do this in the D&DBeyond character builder, but if someone knows how, please tell me in the comments and I'll change it.

Krakenborns mature at the same rate as humans, though they can live up to 130 years.
