S'uuisku

Summary::S'uuisku, or earthly creatures are the spawn of the young, curious gods. These creatures draw their apparence and ability from the very soul of the earth.

Description

S'uuisku are spawn of young, curious deities discovering their power. The S'uuisku are usually curious about their surrounding, a curiosity often leading them to foolhardiness and foolishness. The S'uuisku are many in kind, their personality are just as varied, some may be greedy and aloof while other are prideful and self-righteous.

The S'uuisku's apparence is also extremely varied, having various breed and clan. Each S'uuisku clan were created to exemplify a thoughts, with all it flaw and quality. While a breed represent an entire emotion felt by the young gods. They are a few well known breed: The Ghandalui, the Yandale, Yelkoven and the Manauchla.

The Ghandalui, or most commonly known as beastmen are tall, bulky and monstrous humanoid with animal heads. They are brutal, ugly, spiteful but honorable and prideful. They were born out of anger, the anger of of the gods when they saw an universe bigger than they, but also the eagerness to discover it. The Ghandalui are eager to conquer territory, with little regard of who live there.

The Yandale, or fair folks' children are small fey, often quite pretty with a few feral traits. They exemplify passion and excess, but also stagnancy and pettiness. The yandales are well know to tricks travellers for good or bad (the nature of the tricks depend on the Yandale itself). The standard yandale is about 3 feet tall (some clan can be from 2 feet to 5 feet tall), very little hairs and slender. Yandales usually have funky skin tones, usually blue or green. Yandale are tricksters, using powerful magic to bring their unfortunate prey down. A notable traits of the Yandale is their skin, instead of being soft and fleshy it share a similar texture to barksin.

The Yelkoven are small furry creature, a mix between a sprite and a beastman. These creature grew from the curiosity of the gods when they saw the infinite universe. They are curious about the world surrounding them but have a malicious desire to master it. The Yelkoven are often wise and hardy, they have a clear mind and strong wills allowing thhem to take on the world each day and be ready for tomorrow.

Manauchla are oddities, they seem to be feys, like the others S'uuisku bit share similar traits with insects. They are the most mysterious of all S'uuisku, rarely seen at all. Some say they were born from the fear of some gods to get lost in the universe.

Racial Traits

A S'uuisku can select up to 3 gift, 2 of them must be from the same breed list (as the breed described above are not absolute). By taking 1 level adjustment, the S'uuisku may select five other gift (not restricted by lists) and any select a single special gift (count against your gift limit. Taking another Level Adjustment (for a total of LA 2) grant 10 other gifts (for a total of 18 gifts) and may take 2 other special gifts. It is fairly complicated so here a breakdown.

LA 0: 3 gifts, 2 are restricted to the same list, no special gifts may be taken.
LA 1: 8 gifts, one of these may be a special gift (removed list restriction)
LA 2: 18 gifts, 3 of these may be special gifts.

S'uuisku taking a gifts outside their chosen breed (the one you select 2 gift from) except from general gift, award you a inherent flaw. You must choose one from your chosen breed's list. S'uuisku with a level adjustment does not take a flaw hen selecting gifts from different lists.

If it wasn't obvious, a gift cannot be selected more than once unless stated otherwise.
