Homebrew Dwarf-Tabaxi Species Details

The dwarf-tabaxi are a group of proud, short, and fierce tabaxis that call the many mountains of the world their homes. Believed to originate from the crossbreeding of an ancient dwarf king and his tabaxi lover, the dwarf-tabaxi are at home amongst other dwarves. They learned the way of the forge from dwarven artisans and revere the dwarven god Moradin.

Darkvision

Accustomed to life underground, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

You have advantage on saving throws against poison, and you have resistance against poison damage (explained in the “Combat” section).

Tool Proficiency

You gain proficiency with the artisan’s tools of your choice: smith’s tools, brewer’s supplies, or mason’s tools.

Cat's Claws

Your claws are natural weapons, which you can use to make unarmed strikes. If you hit with them, you deal slashing damage equal to 1d4 + your Strength modifier, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common and Dwarvish. Dwarvish is full of hard consonants and guttural sounds, and those characteristics spill over into whatever other language a dwarf-tabaxi might speak.
