Homebrew Foxen Species Details

Foxen are a type of humanoid creatures called Morphed that were created sometimes on purpose, but mostly by accidental magic. Some used to be foxes, many used to be of another humanoid race, but gained fox-like characteristics. Foxen often choose a last name reflecting their animal race, such as Wanderfox, Foxen, or Cleverfox.

Foxen are often stealthy, clever, and mischievous. They enjoy a good prank, and place great value in the company of others. Like all Morphed, it is difficult for them to find their place among other races, since Morphed are rare enough to not have their own cities and towns. For Foxen, this separation takes a heavier toll than on other Morphed, and they sometimes obsess over trying to fit in, and they treasure what relationships they are able to form.

Foxen Traits

Foxens' racial traits reflect the fox very closely, in the same way that a half-elf shares the traits of humans and elves. Foxen are often originally elves, humans or gnomes, though some are from other races. It's very uncommon, though possible, to see a dwarf Foxen. Foxen's ability score bonuses are +2 Dex, +1 Wis.
