Homebrew Loxodon (Humanoid Elephants) Species Details

Loxodon are humanoid elephants. These 7 foot tall elephants value wisdom and peace over everything, and do not consider their kind to reach adulthood before the age of 60.

Loxodon are extremely loyal and can be quite fearsome when they or their friends are threatened. Although they are very large and strong, they are known to be skilled artisans, especially when it comes to stonework.

Most Loxodon are members of the Selesnya Conclave, although some have been known to join the Orzhov Syndicate and the Azorius Senate.
