Homebrew Beastfolk (TEE) Species Details

Whether born or cursed to the form by a cruel spellcaster, Beastfolk are a collection of humanoid races that bear strong resemblance to a natural animal. Due to the sheer variety of animals in the world, and Beastfolk that take after them, Beastfolk have few common bonds amongst one another. They may form small communities, particularly if they all share the same animal appearance, but oftentimes they live on the edge of civilization and only interact with those that have the insight to see Beastfolk are at least as much human as they are animal.
