Homebrew COPY_OF_Awakend creature Species Details

Physical description

Awakened creatures vary in size, shape, creed, diet, behaviour and alignment in degrees that even humans can't match but they all share generally one thing, that they can think and reason above their fellow creatures. From the old oak to the humble house cat, any simple creature and even things that aren't creatures at all can be blessed or cursed with the awaken spell.

History

As long as druids have existed, so too have awakened creatures. Though druidic circles have been tightly lipped, both the awaken spell and its recipients have managed to find their ways out of the groves that originally bore them.

Society

Often recluse, unable to go back to living as a simple animal, but in a way, drawn to those that treated them well before. Some choose to lead bands of unawakened kin as a master or leader, others shy away from both kinds and become hermits. Awakened creatures that come across another awakened often make a friend for life as they both know the trials and tribulations they have suffered and fear no judgement from their fellow awakened generally.

Names

If not given a name to begin with, they will choose one for themselves if around creatures that can speak enough to warrant one, or they may keep the name from which they were referred to by companions prior to being awakened and then adopt it into other languages.

Fluffy, Rustle, Peat, Stripe, Blood tooth, Lean leg, Twig.
