Homebrew Bippitybop Species Details

"And you will not believe what I saw; a tiny little slimy thing fighting a huge green warty ugly troll!" - Quinn recounting his adventures in Waterdeep to his friend, Theirus.

 In forested swamps secluded and lonely, in haphazard wooden houses and in a unstructured society, Bippitybops live for the simple pleasures in life and usually stay in the village they were born in for all their long lives, and only a few travel away to explore the outside world, and few stay there long.

Embrace the simple life

Bippitybops live for the simple pleasures of life, such as food, drink, sleep, and community. Due to this, Bippitybops rarely adventure outside of their home swamp and have no structured politics, witch makes other races to call them “primitive" and “unclothe”. In fact, they are anything but; a Bippitybop clan will usually be consist of around forty to ninety people, but a clan is more loyal and dedicated than any family, and, when motivated and working together, can create amazing things.

Work for the community

A Bippitybop clan will usually be of around forty to ninety people, but a clan is more loyal and dedicated than any family. And when they work together, the results are incredible. Anyone who has the luck to come across a Bippitybop village will be amazed: most of their houses are up in the trees, well above the muck of the swamps, sprawling complexes of wooden huts. No Bippitybop house is the same.

Spawn of Jubilxe

The demon lord Jubilxe created Bippitybops as slaves that had the ability to reason and perform at least basic battle maneuvers, but it backfired on him badly; to this day scholars don't know how, but Bippitybops somehow escaped his clutches, fleeing first to the Swamp of Oblivion, then gaining courage, venturing to the Material Plane. The knowledge of this history is so obscure that even most of the Bippitybop themselves don't know it.
