Homebrew Ebermensch Species Details

 

 

The Ebermench of Valen are strong in body, dedication, and Wisdom. They are at home on the forest or skilled bazaar merchant procurers, willing to seek amazing treasures and preserve the history incased in them.

They combine a burning fury in battle with keen senses that make them excellent druids and scouts as well as valuable shrewd procures of magical items.

Might and Wisdom of Tusk and Snout 

Ebermensch are barrel-chested and pot belly humanoids with heads resembling those of humans mixed with boars. Their tusk range in size from about 1 foot long to great, curling weapons easily three times that length. They often ornament their horns with metal rings or sheathe them in metal to protect them from damage. They have high pain threshholds and can power through blows that would cripple a normal creature.

Manes of shaggy fur or bare pig like skin adorn their powerful necks and powerful backs, and males have long tufts of hair on their ears and neck. Their bellies are large but house great strength.  Ebermensch are born with short, curly tails, and adorn their proud boar-like snouts. It is a shame when Ebermensch lose their tusk but a call to euthanasian if they loose their sense of smell. Those that lose their sense of smell are outcasted and exiled and call Sinlos. Those Sinlos that have determined to keep on living develop other martial skills to make up for their affliction.  

Of Nature or Trade

Two cultures of Ebermench have emerged on the continent of Valen.  The feral live in the virulent woods and for small druid and ranger communities. The have a strong distaste for the pleasures and technologies of societal life. Domile Ebermench moved into the cities and became proficient cooks, merchants, antique procurers or guards. The Domile cherish there developed lives and view the Feral as barbaric and louts.    

Overall Ebermensch are a friendly people and exude curiosity.  The tend to have substance abuse issues and if placed in a rage, know to act brashly.

Live to Find

Ebermensch are seen by some to be hoarders but amongst their kin there is a devout and constant pressure to keep collecting special and rare items.

The Feral bury their dead with their prize possession, Domile pass the artifact onto their children, and the Sinlos are stripped of their belongings.
