— First woman to give birth to a Half-Tabaxi

(Name not given, per her request.)   

Although not very common, Half-Tabaxi are usually frowned upon by most other races.

Wandering Abroad

There are two types of Half-Tabaxi. The ones who are content with their hometowns, and rarely leave. Then, there are the ones who can't stand sitting still.

This usually leads to adventuring for the outgoing ones, but leaves the content ones without a sense of the world around them.

Variety of Lore

Half-Tabaxi are torn between wanting to leave a legacy, and wanting to learn of one. 

Can this be balanced? No.

This leaves the half-tabaxi to choose between two very important aspects of themselves.

 

Fleeting Institutions

The half-tabaxi are a very ambitious race. Taken from their human heritage, they long for achievment.

While their tabaxi heritage, calls for the opposite. It is very hard for a Half-Tabaxi to be content with their abitions.

Tinkers of Ambition

You can't sit still.
