Standard Races

The following are races with a standard power level, suitable for player characters.

Description Abominapes are closely related to both sasquatch and yeti, albeit not as strong.

 Racial Traits 

+2 Strength, +2 Constitution, –2 Intelligence, +2 Wisdom Abominapes are strong, tough and perceptive, but lack intellectual focus. (2 RP)

Humanoid (Bestial) Abominapes are humanoids with the bestial subtype.

Medium Abominapes are Medium creatures and have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.

Normal Speed Abominapes have a base speed of 30 feet.

Low-Light Vision Abominapes can see twice as far as a race with normal vision in conditions of dim light. (1 RP)

Powerful Build The physical stature of abominapes lets them function in many ways as if they were one size category larger. Whenever an abominape is subject to a size modifier or special size modifier for a Combat Maneuver Bonus or Combat Maneuver Defense (such as during grapple checks, bull rush attempts, and trip attempts), the abominape is treated as one size larger if doing so is advantageous to him. An abominape is also considered to be one size larger when determining whether a creature’s special attacks based on size (such as grab or swallow whole) can affect him. An abominape can use weapons designed for a creature one size larger without penalty. However, his space and reach remain those of a creature of his actual size. The benefits of this racial trait stack with the effects of powers, abilities, and spells that change the subject’s size category. (3 RP)

Instinctive Brawler Abominapes gain the Unarmed Strike class feature of a 1st-level brawler, which includes Improved Unarmed Strike as a racial bonus feat. If they acquire that same feature from class levels, they instead gain the option of rolling once again, any unarmed strike damage they deal, taking the new result even if it is worse. (2 RP)

Description A subterranean branch of mankind, deepygmy are physically smaller and tougher than most other humans, with eyesight and pigmentation patterns befitting their underground ancestry. In events predating the terran bronze age by at least a few dozen millennia, prehistoric humans were periodically abducted into slavery and experimentation by extraterrestrials of several kinds and origins. During that time, the infant offspring of captive humans bred and engineered to dwell and work in the depths of many inhospitable, industrialized and metaphysically anomalous worlds, were often traded between those worlds to promote their hardiness and diminish their familial bonds. Under those conditions, that portion of humanity continued to evolve as one race individually and collectively referred to as deepygmy. Eventually, anonymous acts of sabotage and mysterious phenomena aligned to offer the deepygmy enough of an edge to escape and elude their oppressors until they gathered, organized and innovated enough as one people to hold their own and liberate others.
    Deepygmy settlements have since become legion, hidden beneath the surface of numerous planets and moons scattered throughout the cosmological multiverse. Long in the habit of covertly scouting out and scrying upon new celestial bodies, deepygmy utilize various means of spreading to those they deem suitable. Such means scale up to devices each capable of originating a two-way metaphysical portal with almost any other observed or visited location that isn't properly warded or subjected to adverse metaphysical conditions. Following their arrival to a new and often untamed world, deepygmy are quick to establish a well-warded, concealed and sustainable subterranean settlement with the ability to originate its own portals, steadily expanding the network of their kind.
    Wherever possible, each deepygmy settlement is designed and sometimes altered to preserve and utilize the natural leylines of its host planet or moon. Typically permeated by powerful wards, those settlements include a multitude of secret doors and traps designed to help neutralize nosy intruders. Their underground chambers and corridors usually contain an array of persistent portals, many of which correspond to demiplanes created with environments ideal for laboratories, workshops and farms. Oftentimes, some of those demiplanes are cleared and secured to receive traffic that involves shifting or opening gates through planar veils.
    Depending on available resources, each deepygmy settlement typically sustains any technological demands with energy produced by means including geothermal generators, fusion reactors and even graviton reactors. Commonly enclosed within faraday cages, each settlement employs quantum ansible nodes to facilitate technological communication. To discreetly monitor and study regions within their astronomical vicinity, settlements will build a variety of space-faring vessels and scouting probes well equipped for cloaking.
    A vast portion of deepygmy settlements share their host planet or moon with other sapient intelligent species on terms that are mostly respectful and mutually beneficial. Those settlements are less adverse than others of their kind to receiving unusual company.
