Homebrew Wemic Species Details
Wemics are sometimes referred to as lion centaur.
They have the body of a lion and the torso of a humanoid growing out of what would be the lions neck. Golden fur covers their whole body.
They are about 10 feet long and stand between 6 and 7 feet tall.
As nomadic hunters they use all they take from their hunting and limit how many they kill from a single herd. This preserves the herd for hunting at a later time.
Wemics tend to only use weapons that they can make and repair.
Wemics are known to posses excellent tracking skills. If you catch them in a favorable mood you can occasionally persuade them to help track something or someone. Additionally when you catch them in a bad mood you may have to pay a tribute just to cross their lands.
Although they do not flaunt it, Wemic's are given their due respect as the progenitor race by both the Bengalic and Pumic Races. Who they view as odd but friendly cousins no one talks about.
