Homebrew Coats Firbolg Species Details

Physical Description. Coats Firbolgs appear humanoid in figure. Coats Firbolgs are almost universally unique in their exact forms and mannerisms. But there are typical common physical traits among them. Their skin is blue green in color and their hair was dark in color. Although they are smaller in size, don’t let it fool you they are still as strong as their brethren. Nails as tough as steel and as sharp as blades. They wear simple clothes, mostly from natural things. They care very little for their appearance, they keep their hair close cropped.

Born Of Magic
Coats Firbolgs have a talent for magic. Their cultural reverence for magic, combined with their strong and insightful minds, makes learning such magic an instinctive part of their development. Every Coats firbolg learns spells, typically illusory magic, and many go on to master magic in some form or another. Coats Firbolgs who become druids serve as stronghold leaders. With every action the coven takes, the druids weigh not only the group’s needs, but the effect each action will have on the forest and the rest of the natural world.

Society.

Coats Firbolgs struggle between there easy going family centered linage and the unreducible, independent nature. There is a split in the culture some need the comfort that comes with a family coven. Those that chose this life live in a magic community that believes that the magic of the world is the most important thing and that this is expressed the most in nature. They live in the forests and caves usually drawn to live by water. Most of them with never see farther than a few miles from their homes. They are born with their people, serve their people and die with their people. The other half have an independent streak. They normally live alone or with a select few. Still preferring to live in nature they never stay in place for long. When moving from place to place they will travel disguise or while invisible. Coats firbolgs all have a distrust for other races. But when they strike a bargain there word is unbreakable. It is rumored that the legend of the crossroads deals were born from Coats Firbolgs appearing out of nowhere to bargain with travelers and then disappear. Sometimes the hag side of the Coats will get the best of them and they may play a prank on the traveler.  

Outcasts and Nomads
As guardians of the wood, few firbolgs would dream of leaving their homes. An exiled Coats, or one whose coven has been destroyed, might not have a choice in the matter. But more often there hag side gets the best of them and they just develop a need to roam. Outcast Coats Firbolgs can never return home. They committed some unforgivable deed, usually something that put their homeland or their forest at risk, such as starting a forest fire or killing a rare or magic creature. These Coats are loners who wander the world helping nature. Orphaned Coats are those whose clans or homelands have been destroyed. They become crusaders for nature, seeking to avenge their loss and prevent the further destruction of the natural world. A few rare Coats Firbolgs are entrusted by their clan with an important mission that takes them beyond their homes. These Coats usually wish only to complete their quests and return home as quickly as possible.
