Homebrew Den Species Details

Studious wielders of ultimate magic and knowledge. The Dens are a race of relatively meek-looking people, identified mostly by the trunk like protrusions on their faces. Though small and physically lacking, their intellect and curiosity drive them to success. Most Dens spend their whole lives in education, studying the great tomes written and maintained by their elders. Those that do not usually take to tinkering. Dens have created miraculous contraptions, including their famous steam technology that allows them to live and grow food in the frigid climate of Cerenium. Their inventions have even allowed them to best the Moots in battle during some parts of history in order to capture them for labor. While most stay in their homeland to expand their knowledge, many find traveling to other lands a great way to learn (and profit from their genius).
