Homebrew Chaik Species Details

The Chaik race is native to the Feywild. They have never been on any side, Seelie, Unseelie, LeShay, or Eladrin. They hold their own. Their society is very widespread and mostly unregulated, as they have no central government. They mostly either have small nomadic camps they live in or live together in groups in towns. In small towns, they can often be found in the role of medicine man or woman. Chaik culture promotes modest clothing that doesn't grab attention. However, their religious and ritualistic garb is very colorful and elaborate. Any given Chaik will probably know their way around their neck of the Feywild. Even with this knowledge of the place, they are often pessimistic and chaotic in their rationale. They have a distinct preference for theatre and the arts over social or technological progress.
