Homebrew Awakened Monkee Species Details

You aren't like other apes. For one reason or another, you are sapient. Perhaps some powerful mage wanted an intelligent servant. Perhaps a traveling group of adventurers decided to cast Awaken on you for their amusement. Perhaps you simply woke up one day and don't know why. Whatever the reason, you've left behind the life of a beast in order to become an adventurer.

Ability Score Increase

Increase your strength score by 2 and your intelligence score by 1

Dexterous Feet

Your feet can serve as a second pair of hands. They have a reach of 5 feet, and can lift a number of pounds equal to five times your Strength score. You can grasp things with your feet, and can use them to do the following simple tasks: lift, drop, hold, push, or pull an object or a creature; open or close a door or a container; grapple someone; or make an unarmed strike. Your DM might allow other simple tasks to be added to that list of options.

Your feet are also dexterous enough to handle tasks that require manual precision, such as using tools or performing the somatic components of spells, but they cannot wield weapons or a shield. While holding something with one or both feet, your walking speed is halved. Your climbing speed is halved as well, unless both your hands are free.

Long-Limbed

When you make a melee attack on your turn with your arms, your reach for it is 5 feet greater than normal.

Simian Brotherhood

You have advantage on Wisdom (Animal Handling) checks when interacting with apes and other primates.
