Homebrew Furret Species Details

"Halt!"
A high pitched shriek yells out to the trespassers of the forest below.
"Halt, I say, Halt!"
A small furry creature in a loincloth stands on a tree branch, wielding a crude spear made from branch, twine, and a flint stone.
The tresspassers, two human children out to play in the woodlands, look up at the creature, curiousity sparkling in their eyes. The creature descends from the branch with the acrobatics of a squirrel, plunging into the ground with it's spear brandished. It's small eyes furious and it's bright red fur bristles at the end of it's white striped tail.
"Name yourselves and thy business within these trees!" yells the creature.
The small human girl squeals with pleasure.
"It's so fuzzy! I just want to squeeze it!" The young boy draws his wooden toy sword sanctomoniously and rests it on the ground, playing along with the woodland creature:
"I am Sir Edmund the Young, and this is my sister Esmeralda the Fair. We request safe passage within thy woods to reach the creek, so that we may feel the cool water across our bare feet and play on the fallen tree."
The young girl, realization spreading across her face as her brother adresses the creature, gives a little curtsy.
The Furret smiles, satisfied with the answer, and replies, "Of course, Sir Edmund, I would be happy to escort you through our peaceful forest."
The Furret salutes Edmund with his spear and leads the way down the forest path, keeping vigilance and swearing his life to protect the two human children.
Edmund follows, picking his sword up and marching along with the Furret, making sure to protect his sister and making light banter with the Furret.
Esmeralda lets out a little giggle and follows the two to the creek.

Impulsive Creatures
Furrets are small little furry creatures, usually around 3 feet tall. While they may be small, their emotions are the fiercest of any race. They have a deep love for nature, usually becoming druids or guards to protect their homeland. They usually reside in forests and woodlands. Furrets display a similar coloring pattern to each other, from brown to a deep red with a striped tail. Furrets are also very impulsive, each Furret has something that they impulsively can't help themselves. You can choose this impulsive behavior on the Furret Impulses chart or make your own. Furrets are also usually very content with life and enjoy playing tricks on other races. These tricks usually aren't malicious, they see it all in good fun, and Furrets like to revel and party, and once that's over enjoy a nice nap and a time to be lazy.

Furret Impulses
d6 | Impulse
| 1 | The Furret is in love with fire, pyromancy, and arson. They see fire as a natural cycle with the forest, one which causes the destruction of the forest, but to create something better and even more vibrant with life. 
| 2 | The Furret is obsessed with shiny things, going out of their way to steal anything that is shiny enough to interest them. Once they have their eyes set on a shiny, they will stop at nothing to get it. 
| 3 | The Furret is obsessed with his honor, and will never break it. Their ideas of honor may differentiate from others, but their standard of honor never deviates once it's set. 
| 4 | The Furret is a huge prankster. The Furret either plans out elaborate pranks that take days to implement, or they do day-to-day pranks such as pantsing or tripping their friends. These pranks are never truly detrimental, at least to the Furret. The Furret takes absolute merriment from these pranks everytime they succeed. 
| 5 | The Furret is an extreme adrenaline junkie, taking the craziest risks just cause it's fun to them. Furrets with this impulse supposedly have lead the best lives, albeit the shortest ones. 
| 6 | The Furret is extremely hyperactive and impatient, and has difficulty in waiting of any kind. They never savor anything and are always in a rush for life.
