CHAMELEON FOLK


   
"Sorry, I forgot I was here."

 Anthropoid chameleons the size of Halflings.  They often forget they are camouflaged while hanging out, leading to hilariously awkward consequences.

CHAMELEON FOLK SPECIES TRAITS

·   Chameleon Camouflage (Ex): Chameleons can change color as a Swift Action.  While in any sort of natural terrain, a Chameleon can use the Hide skill even while being observed as long as it remains still.  If it moves, it must take another Swift Action to regain it's camouflage.
·   Assault Tongue (Ex): The Chameleon can make a melee attack with it's tongue at a range of 10 feet.  This is considered a Strength based melee touch attack, and does not provoke an attack of opportunity.  It does 1d3 plus Strength modifier Bludgeoning damage, and the target is considered attached due to the sticky nature of the tongue.  An attached Chameleon is effectively grappling its prey. The Chameleon loses its Dexterity bonus to AC, but holds on with great tenacity. Chameleons have a +12 racial bonus on grapple checks with their tongue. An attached Chameleon can be struck with a weapon or grappled itself. To remove an attached Chameleon through grappling, the opponent must achieve a pin against the Chameleon.

ROLEPLAYING A CHAMELEON FOLK
 After the old world, you were so used to hiding you sometimes forget you have your camo on now.  But you learn a lot being hidden, and you don't intend to give that up.  A little paranoia can be good sometimes as long as you don't let it rule you.
 Personality: Chameleons are pretty live and let live, but they do have a strong streak of anxiety after the War.
 Behaviors: Standing still for hours without blinking is common.  Honestly, you can see why you weird some people out.
 Language: Chameleons speak Scaly and Common.

CHAMELEON FOLK SOCIETY
 Chameleon society is often described as laid back (well, actually they're called lazy) and uncaring.  This is unfair.  The Chameleons aren't uncaring, they just believe in thinking things through rather than reacting immediately.
 Alignment : Chameleons are aggressively Neutral.  As in they really don't want involved in your business.  To the extent they will tongue you in the eye if they have to.
 Lands : Chameleons prefer areas with lot's of places to hide.
 Settlements : But they'll take any Warm land really.
 Beliefs : Chkrr is the primary deity of the Chameleons.
 Relations: The other species like you well enough, but can be weirded out by your behavior.  Sometimes very much so.

CHAMELEON FOLK ADVENTURES
· You're hanging out camouflaged, when you overhear strangers and the town mayor planning to burn the city down for something called 'insurance money'.  Now you have to find some way of stopping it.
· The local crime lord has decided you need to go underground.  You know this because his calling for your death woke you up.  You've been sleeping camouflaged behind some junk in one of his warehouses.  Now you just need to find out why  he wants you gone.
· While hidden, you overhear two drunken Gawds making plans to mes with your home town.  Now what?

CHAMELEON FOLK SPECIES SUBSTITUTION LEVELS

Scout
 Levels 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19: Replace Skirmish with Ambush
  Ambush (Ex): In any round in which the Scout makes an attack against an opponent who is Flat-Footed or unaware of his presence he does +1d6 damage. He also gets this bonus to ranged attacks performed on any round in which he does not move. This extra damage increases by 1d6 for every four levels gained above 1st (2d6 at 5th, 3d6 at 9th, 4d6 at 13th, and 5d6 at 17th level).

The extra damage only applies against living creatures that have a discernible anatomy. Undead, constructs, oozes, plants, incorporeal creatures, and creatures immune to extra damage from critical hits are not vulnerable to this additional damage. The scout must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot. Scouts can apply this extra damage to ranged attacks made while skirmishing, but only if the target is within 30 feet.

At 3rd level, the applicable range for your Ambush attack increases by +20 ft.. This bonus improves by and additional 20' for every four levels gained above 3rd (+40 ft. at 7th, +60 ft. at 11th, +80 ft. at 15th, and +120 ft. at 19th level).

A scout loses this ability when wearing medium or heavy armor or when carrying a medium or heavy load. If she gains the skirmish ability from another class, the bonuses stack.

  Improved Camouflage (Ex): You may always Take 10 on Hide Checks.

CHAMELEON FOLK
Before fleeing to the Jester's Realm, the Furry species (including the Chameleon Folk) came from a world where Humans and the Furry Peoples were eternally at war.  With the humans on the verge of wiping the Furry Peoples out, the Jester offered them a new home.  They were quick to accept.

OFTEN FORGET THEY'RE CAMOUFLAGED
The Chameleon Folk are anthropomorphic lizards about the size of halflings.  Originally they remained unseen, setting out the war.  But when they were discovered, they were begged by the Furry Peoples for what would be their invaluable aid as spies and saboteurs.  Mind you, there were some teething pains.  The Chameleons often tended to forget that they had their camo on when they were using it for extended periods of time.  Which was great, as long as they didn't move.

PROFESSIONAL SPIES
Even with the war over, many Chameleons find work as professional snoops.  And lets be honest, they're built for that.  Other employers also fear that they will use their camouflage to goof off.  Which is crap, because they don't goog off as spies.  Well, at least not that anyone can tell...

CHAMELEON FOLK NAMES

Male Names. Agapito, Bayani, Danilo, Melchor, Nimuel, Zoren.

IGUANA FOLK CHARACTERS
 You were used as heavy infantry in the war, because it's a job you were well suited for.  Some would say their experiences in the war is what led to their infamous tempers.  Others point out they kind of had tempers well before the War, but agree it probably didn't help much.

ROLEPLAYING AN IGUANA FOLK
 You have some anger problems.  You tend to be grumpy on the best of days, and have little patience for others, even your own species.  Some would say especially your own species.
 Personality: There is no problem that cannot be solved by wailing on it repeatedly while screaming obscenities.  Well, except for the reputation you develop while doing so.
 Behaviors: Iguanas enjoy the finer things in life: sunbathing, and swift and blinding violence.  Not necessarily in that order
 Language: Iguanas speak Scaly and Common.

IGUANA FOLK SOCIETY
 You're seen as brutes who spend their time lazing about in the sun when you aren't fighting.  And true, you do a lot of both, but that's not the sum total of your culture.  You're fine taxidermists as well.
 Alignment : Iguana Folk are Neutral, and usually a little Chaotic as well.
 Lands : You prefer warm forests or marshes.
 Settlements : But if you must live elsewhere, warmth and access to water are mandatory.
 Beliefs : Iguana Folk prefer Chkrr, Grandpa Jones and Mary Lou.
 Relations: Due to their overly aggressive nature, Iguanas are avoided by most people, unless talking to them is necessary.

· A family of Ogre Magi try to take over the village.  Imagine their surprise when you go right for their throats.  Now they're hiding in the mountains nearby planning revenge, and you've decided to get rid of them before they recover and come back for revenge.

OFTEN DESCRIBED AS 'DISGRUNTLED'
The Iguana Folk are anthropomorphic lizards about the size of tall humans.  A primary source of infantry for the War in the areas they lived in, they were excellent fighters if you could rein in their tempers.  Iguanas are infamous for their prickliness, and vie with the Panda and Moose Folk for the title of "most likely to start a fight for being bored".

PROFESSIONAL BRAWLERS
After the war, many Iguanas became wrasslers, bodyguards, hired muscle, etc.  Professions which take advantage of their strength and anger.  A great many entered law enforcement as well, but their tempers aren't as well received there.  Nobody wants the local Sheriff to have hissy fits.

STICK BUG FOLK


   
I am but a humble tree sapling! IGNORE MEH!"

 Stick bugs are anthropomorphic insects built to resemble tree limbs, saplings or foliage.  This is because in their former home, a great many beasts saw them as food, and it was an arms race to find new ways of fending them off.

·   Size Class: Medium
·   Type: Monstrous Humanoid, giving them 60 ft. Darkvision
·   Base land speed 30 ft.
·   Base climb speed 30 ft.
·   Detach Limb (Ex): If Grappled, you can make an Immediate Action to disconnect a limb, and immediately escape the Grapple.  The limb grows back in 1d4 days.  If the Stick Bug loses an arm, it cannot wield two handed weapons or items, and takes a -4 Circumstance penalty on Skill Checks that would require the use of both hands.  If it loses a leg, it's land and climb speeds are reduced by half until the limb regrows.  If it loses both legs, it can crawl at a speed of 10 feet.  The Stick Bug will generally not willingly lose more than one limb, fleeing after it escapes the initial grapple. A Heal, Mass Heal or Greater Restoration spell will regrow the limb immediately.
·   Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, you must hit with a claw attack. You can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity.
·   Tremorsense 10 ft.

STICK BUG CHARACTERS
 With an LA and Racial HD, you won't make the best of casters, but you can be a pretty sneaky beatstick.
 Adventuring Race: Stick Bugs adventures because they need something (or need to avoid something).
 Character Development: You're pretty much built for stealth, so whatever class you end up playing be sure to save a few skill ranks for sneakiness.
 Character Names: Stick Bug names are deliberately unpronounceable to other species.  They don't like others knowing their business, not even their name.

ROLEPLAYING A STICK BUG
 You are all about the defense.  Your species mages specialize in developing ways to mutate your people and give them superpowers.  Which leads to some pretty weird stuff.
 Personality: In the old world, many critters saw you as food (and the humans considered you vermin).  This has led to some (un)healthy levels of paranoia.  When it seems like everything wants to eat you, you tend to develop some weird coping mechanisms.
 Behaviors: Stick Bugs are obsessed with not being eaten, and this colors every aspect of their existence.  Many spend hours pretending to be saplings.
 Language: Stick Bugs speak Buggy, and usually Common or one other language.

STICK BUG SOCIETY
 Stick Bugs spend most of their life pretending to be plants, nibbling on plants, or researching new ways they can mutate themselves defensively.  They're an odd bunch.
 Alignment : Stick Bugs are Neutral.  They try not to get involved in other people's bidness.
 Lands : Stick Bugs live just about anywhere there is appropriate amounts of vegetation.
 Settlements : Stick Bugs are already just about everywhere.
 Beliefs : Timmy is the overwhelmingly popular Gawd.
 Relations: Being former prey, other species tend to make Stick Bugs unnecessarily nervous.  They tend to live alone.

STICK BUG ADVENTURES
· A local noble finds out your people have been his defacto garden for the last 20 years.  Alas, he is an entomophobe, and now you lead your people on a quest for safety since thee eviction.
· The local association of would be Screwball Mages is advertising for Minions.  Gain super powers it says.  Be the best you can be it says.  Your brother applied weeks ago, and hasn't been seen since.
· You take the chance of revealing yourself to a beloved local monk one day, and surprise him so badly that he dies of heart failure.  Now you're back in hiding, listening to plans by evil monks to take over the town now that he is gone, and the locals fretting about 'demons in the night'.


STICK BUG SPECIES SUBSTITUTION LEVELS

Scout
 Levels 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19: Replace Skirmish with Ambush
  Ambush (Ex): In any round in which the Scout makes an attack against an opponent who is Flat-Footed or unaware of his presence he does +1d6 damage. He also gets this bonus to ranged attacks performed on any round in which he does not move. This extra damage increases by 1d6 for every four levels gained above 1st (2d6 at 5th, 3d6 at 9th, 4d6 at 13th, and 5d6 at 17th level).

The extra damage only applies against living creatures that have a discernible anatomy. Undead, constructs, oozes, plants, incorporeal creatures, and creatures immune to extra damage from critical hits are not vulnerable to this additional damage. The scout must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot. Scouts can apply this extra damage to ranged attacks made while skirmishing, but only if the target is within 30 feet.

At 3rd level, the applicable range for your Ambush attack increases by +20 ft.. This bonus improves by and additional 20' for every four levels gained above 3rd (+40 ft. at 7th, +60 ft. at 11th, +80 ft. at 15th, and +120 ft. at 19th level).

A scout loses this ability when wearing medium or heavy armor or when carrying a medium or heavy load. If she gains the skirmish ability from another class, the bonuses stack.

RANGER
 Level 2+: Gain a new option with Combat Style: Grappler.
  Combat Style (Ex): At 2nd Level you gain Close Quarters Fighting (see Complete Warrior), at 6th Level you gain Multiattack, and at 11th Level you gain Improved Multiattack.

ROGUE
 Level 10+: When choosing the Rogue's Special Ability, you may now choose Camouflage (identical to the Ranger ability of the same name).  Once you have Camouflage, at Level 16 or Higher you may also take Hide in Plain Sight (which is also identical to the Ranger ability of the same name).


STICK BUG FEATS

Chameleon
You can change color.
 Prerequisites: Stick Bugs
 Benefits: You can always Take 10 on a Hide Check.

Crush 'Em
You can smoosh people.
 Prerequisites: Stick Bug, Str 15+
 Benefits: You can do 1d6 plus Str modifier damage with a successful Grapple Check.

Death Fart
When you unexpectedly drop dead, you unleash a horrific stench that tells Animals and Vermin you are not edible.
 Prerequisites: Possum or Stick Bug, Feign Death
 Benefits: When you Feign Death, you secrete an oily, musk-like chemical that nearly every form of animal life finds offensive. All living creatures (except Possums) within 30 feet of you must succeed on a Fortitude save or be sickened for 10 rounds. The save DC is Constitution-based. Creatures that successfully save cannot be affected by the same Possum’s stench for 24 hours. A delay poison or neutralize poison spell removes the effect from the sickened creature. Creatures with immunity to poison are unaffected, and creatures resistant to poison receive their normal bonus on their saving throws.

Feign Death
I'm dead.  Yup.  Yup.  Go 'way now.
 Prerequisites: Possum and Stick Bug
 Benefits: As an immediate action, you can enter a catatonic state in which you appear to be dead. While feigning death, you cannot see or feel anything, but you retain the ability to smell, hear, and otherwise follow what is going on around you. While under the effect of this ability, you are immune to all mind-affecting spells and abilities, poison, sleep, paralysis, stunning, disease, ability drain, negative levels, and death effects. Attempts to resuscitate you, such as raise dead or reincarnation, automatically fail, though resurrection and true resurrection immediately end your feign death ability.  Spells and other effects that assess your current condition, such as status and deathwatch, indicate that you are dead. However, a character who succeeds on a Heal check (DC 15 + 1/2 your Hit Dice + your Con modifier) can discern that you are actually alive. You can remain in the catatonic state indefinitely, though you still require food, water, and air. Emerging from feigned death is a standard action.

Not A Snack
You taste awful.
 Prerequisites: Stick Bugs, Con 15+
 Benefits: You can leak blood and other bodily fluids as an Immediate Action.  For the next 10 Minutes, any creature that can taste you (making a bite attack for example), must make a Fortitude Save (Save DC is Con based) or be Nauseated for 1d4 rounds.  If the save is successful, they are Sickened until the beginning of your next turn instead.

Panic Scream
You freak people out when you get freaked out.
 Prerequisites: Possum or Stick Bug, Feign Death
 Benefits: As a Standard Action you can unleash a hellish scream, and the nearest opponent of your choice must make a Willpower Save (Save DC is Cha based) or be Frightened one round.  If he succeeds, he is immune to your scream for 24 hours.  This can be combined with Feign Death, and you can do both as a Standard Action to make your 'death' seem realistic.

Power Vomit
You have a nasty defense.
 Prerequisites: Stick Bugs, Con 15+
 Benefits: You can vomit up the contents of your stomach as a Standard Action (you must have eaten at least 4 hours earlier).  This is a 15 ft. Cone doing 3d6 acid damage unless the creatures within the area of effect make a successful Reflex Save (Save DC is Con based).  It does half damage on a successful Save.  If the Save fails, the targets also take 1d6 acid damage per round for the next two rounds.  Once used, you must eat a meal and wait 4 hours to use it again.

Spiderclimb
You can crawl up walls and ceilings.
 Prerequisites: Caterpillars, Fleas, Flymen, Roaches, Roaches (big), Slugs, Stick Bugs, Stink Bugs
 Benefits: You permanently gain the benefits of the Spiderclimb spell, but you can move at your full climb speed.

Wings
You can fly.  Sort of.
 Prerequisites: Stick Bugs, Con 15+
 Benefits: You gain a Fly speed of 20 ft. (Average)


STICK BUG FOLK
Before fleeing to the Jester's Realm, the Furry species (including the Stick Bug Folk) came from a world where Humans and the Furry Peoples were eternally at war.  With the humans on the verge of wiping the Furry Peoples out, the Jester offered them a new home.  They were quick to accept.

A SPECIES OF MUTATIONS
The Stick Bug Folk are anthropomorphic insects about the size of tall humans.  A primary target of carnivores (apparently they taste like sugar), they ended up being eaten by humans as emergency rations.  Fortunately (?) they had a cadre of Screwball Mages on their side, and a willingness to be experimented upon.  And thusly, they now resemble plants well enough to be mistaken for them while standing still.  The issue,of course, is that plants are still edible.  But they still pursue their dreams even to this day.

PROFESSIONAL BUSHES
For now the Stick Bugs act as guards, a role they are well prepared for.  Once the Mages get their stuff together, they hope to be superheroes!  They've already learned the basics of changing color and sweating out their internal fluids to avoid being eaten.  Surely the ability to cough up lightning s just around the corner.

STICK BUG FOLK NAMES
Stock Bug names are deliberately unpronounceable to other species.  They don't like others knowing their business, not even their name.

STINK BUG FOLK

 You appear to be a Brown Marmorated Stink Bug the size of a Gnome.  And you have hands.  Which, honestly, does nothing to set anyone nearby at ease.

·   Base land speed 20 ft.
·   Base climb speed 20 ft.

Creatures with immunity to poison are unaffected, and creatures resistant to poison receive their normal bonus on their saving throws.   The Stench lasts a number of rounds equal to your Constitution modifier.  The area in which you released your Stench ability can be smelled up to 5 miles by other Stink Bugs, and they always know what direction it lies in.
·   Stench Immunity (Ex): You are immune to Stinking Cloud, Troglodyte Stench and similar abilities.  Smells that would normally cause a penalty to rolls meant to detect creatures via Scent don't work on you either.

·   +3 Natural AC Bonus to Armor Class
·   Stink Bugs have a Primary Bite Attack doing 1d3 plus one and a half times Strength Modifier.

 Character Development: Try to alleviate your movement speed issues.
 Character Names: Stink Bug names are a mix of scent/sign language, and thusly difficult for other species.

ROLEPLAYING A STINK BUG
 You tend to be seen hanging out a lot, apparently doing nothing.  You're actually communicating with your fellows, but most other species have no way of determining that.
 Personality: The Stink Bugs are generally pretty decent, helpful folk.  Unless they get scared or angry.  Then they turn the area around them into a chemical hell.
 Behaviors: Your species tends to be obsessed with food and shelter, and constantly looks for/studies both.
 Language: Stink Bugs cannot speak, so their language is a mishmash of scents and sign language.

STINK BUG SOCIETY
 Stink Bugs are very communal.  When one of them finds something 'good', they swiftly inform everyone else.  They want to make sure their neighbors share in their successes.  Many see themselves as being responsible for the territories under their control.
 Alignment : Stink Bugs tend towards Neutrality.
 Lands : Stink Bugs are found in just about any warm or Temperate land other than deserts.
 Settlements : Stink Bugs will settle anywhere the food is plentiful.
 Beliefs : Timmy and Idrista are popular Gawds.
 Relations: The Stink Bugs primary method of defense is NOT popular.  As a consequence, they are looked upon not so fondly.

STINK BUG ADVENTURES

STINK BUG FOLK
Before fleeing to the Jester's Realm, the Furry species (including the Stink Bug Folk) came from a world where Humans and the Furry Peoples were eternally at war.  With the humans on the verge of wiping the Furry Peoples out, the Jester offered them a new home.  They were quick to accept.

DO WE MAKE YOU NERVOUS
The Stink Bug Folk are anthropomorphic insects about the size of Gnomes.  They cannot speak, and communicate via sign language and pheromones.  It is very difficult for other species to learn this language.  Despite their fearsome reputation, Stink Bugs are homebodies.  They rarely involve themselves in the affairs of others.  As a result, people tend to leave them alone.  The sane ones anyway.

COMMUNICATION NETWORK
During the War, the Stink Bugs became invaluable for passing on coded messages that the humans couldn't understand.  Between that and their other abilities, they redeemed themselves of their negative reputation.  After all, the Skunk Folk were accepted, and they used stink as a weapon too.  Little known to outside species is that your stench includes a homing pheromone that can draw others of your kind.  Meaning help is always a fart away.

STINK BUG NAMES
Stink Bug names are indecipherable to other species.

STINK BUG TRAITS

Ability Score Increase. Increase your Strength by +2, and your Constitution score by +1.

Age. Stink Bugs reach adulthood in their late teens and live less than a century.

Alignment. Most Stink Bugs are Neutral.

Size. You are Small.  You are around 3 to 4 feet tall and weigh around 60 pounds

Speed. Your walking speed is 30 feet.  You also have a Climb speed of 30 feet.

Scent Communication. You are capable of Scent Marking. Effectively this works as being able to Mark a person, place or object for 24 hours. Only creatures with Keen Scent can perceive the Mark. Only beings with Keen Smell and an Int of 3 or greater can perceive any message you leave with the 6 characters available to you, and animals will assume it's a territorial marking and will be able to identify you.  Your species method of speech requires pheromones and movement, therefore anyone wishing to understand you must have Scent, be able to see you, be within 60 feet, and understand your language.

Immunity to Stench. You are immune to Stinking Cloud, Troglodyte Stench and similar abilities.  Smells that would normally cause a penalty or Disadvantage to rolls meant to detect creatures via Scent don't work on you either.

Creatures that successfully save cannot be affected by the same Stink Bug’s stench for 1 hour.  The Stench lasts a number of rounds equal to your Constitution modifier.  The area in which you released your Stench ability can be smelled up to 5 miles by other Stink Bugs, and they always know what direction it lies in.

Keen Sight and Smell. Thanks to your sensitive eyes and nose, you have advantage on Wisdom (Perception), Wisdom (Survival), and Intelligence (Investigation) checks that involve sight and Smell.

Quiet Casters. Stink Bugs can ignore hte Verbal component of spells, but they can never ignore the Somatic or Material components for this reason, even if a class ability or Feat would allow them to do so.

Bite. You have a sharp mouth piece that you can use to make unarmed strikes. When you hit with it, the strike deals 1d4 + your Strength or Dexterity modifier (whichever is higher) piercing damage, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.

"Hello little fellow.  What's your name?"


Don't Squish Them

"Uh  oh.  You don't have Comprehend Languages memorized do you?"

"Wouldn't make a difference it doesn't work on sign language."

"He seems to want us to follow him to that tree over there."

ROLEPLAYING A PUFFER FISH
 You're fairly happy go lucky, trying not to remember the bad times in the old world.  The humans used to kill you for your poison (which they used to kill the other Furry Species), and that was a fairly dark time.  But now that it's over, it's time to enjoy life again.
 Personality: Puffer Fish are energetic and playful, and generally a joy to be around.  As long as you maintain a safe distance.  They can be paranoid.

· Local bullies (The Dolphin Boys) have fallen for the disinformation that people can get high by licking you.  You have been asked to 'persuade' them to move on.
· A crazed madman who might be a Lich says he needs your poison for an alchemical process.  He'd like to 'squeeze' it out of you, which he assures you won't hurt.  Right.

· A newcomer to town calls you a slur, and implies you're stupid.  A day later the police are looking for you in connection to a fire at his lodgings.  Shame that happened.  Be less of a shame if you knew who you could thank for doing it.

BLUE FOOTED BOOBY FEATS

A Lie Repeated Often Enough
You are persistent in your fibbery.
 Prerequisites: Booby, Raccoon or Sheep, Bluff 4 ranks, Diplomacy 4 ranks
 Benefits:  You can try again on Bluff or Diplomacy Checks at no penalty.

Blank, Uncomprehending Stare
You're good at playing dumb.
 Prerequisites: Booby or Sheep, Cha 15+
 Benefits: You may take 10 on all Bluff Checks to look stupid, feign ignorance or claim that you don't know anything.  Opponents have a -2 Penalty on Sense Motive Checks against you (this includes Feint attacks made by you).

I Can't Recognize Death
You aren't afraid of anything.  Whether you're actually brave or too dim to see danger in front of you is a subject of fierce debate.
 Prerequisites: Booby
 Benefits: Despite the name, you get a +2 Bonus on all Saving Throws versus Mind-Affecting Effects (this stacks with Feats like Iron Will).  If you fail by less than 5, the Effect only lasts half it's normal duration (minimum of 1 round).

I Fart In Your General Direction
Your failure to die has engendered in you a sense of hubris.
 Prerequisites: I Can't Recognize Death, Level 6+
 Benefits: You may now take 10 on all Saving Throws against Mind-Affecting effects.

Incoherency
Your rants tend to make people avoid you...
 Prerequisites: Booby or Platypi, Cha 15+
 Benefits: As an Immediate Action you can make an Intimidate Check vs any Charisma Based Skill Check your opponent is making (you get a +2 Competence Bonus to the roll, this doesn't work against Iaijutsu Focus or Use Magic Device) while delivering a psychotic nonsensical rant that has in no way anything to do with a question you've been asked or whatever your opponent is saying.  If you succeed, not only does his check fail, but he has to make a Willpower Save (DC is 10 plus 1/2 HD plus Charisma Modifier) or decide further attempts are pointless as you are far too insane for it to work.

Launch
You can leap onto opponents from above.
 Prerequisites: Booby, Glider or Squirrel, Dex 15+
 Benefits: As a Standard Action, you can leap from above, and attack your opponent with a weapon, or smash him with your body.  This is effectively a Charge Attack, meaning you must leap from at least 10 feet above your opponent.  Your weapon does +1d6 damage per 10 feet you travel.  You take 1d6 falling damage for every 10 feet you travel past the first 10 feet (i.e. 0 damage at 10 ft., 1d6 damage at 20 ft., 2d6 at 30 ft., etc.).  If your opponent is one Size Category larger than you or smaller, and you successfully hit, you may make a Trip attempt as a Free Action with a +2 Bonus per 10 feet you travel to the Check.

Salt Glands
You are resistant to desiccation, and you can drink saltwater.
 Prerequisites: Booby, Con 15+
 Benefits: Normally characters cannot drink sea water to quench their thirst.  No matter how much salt water they drink it won't stave off dehydration, and instead will require them to make a DC 15 Fortitude Save or become Nauseous for 1d4 rounds and take a -2 penalty for 1 hour on Saves to avoid the effects of Dehydration.  With this Feat, your body processes the salt, so you take no ill effects from sea water, and can avoid dehydration by drinking it.  You also have Energy Resistance 3 against Desiccation damage.

Sneeze
You can sneeze sodium.
 Prerequisites: Salt Glands
 Benefits: For every gallon of sea water you drink, you can process enough sodium in 1 Hour to produce a sneeze of toxic salt.  This is a ranged attack, with a range of 5 feet that doesn't provoke an attack of opportunity.  If it is successful, your opponent must make a Fortitude Save (Save DC is Con based) or be Blinded for 1 Minute and take 2d4 desiccation damage.

Water Wrasslin'
You are well trained at fighting underwater.
 Prerequisites: Booby, Platypi or Turtle, Improved Unarmed Strike
 Benefits: You don't take melee attack penalties when fighting underwater, and can Hold your breath for (12 times Con Modifier rounds) before you risk drowning.


BLUE-FOOTED BOOBY FOLK
Before fleeing to the Jester's Realm, the Furry species (including the Blue-Footed Booby Folk) came from a world where Humans and the Furry Peoples were eternally at war.  With the humans on the verge of wiping the Furry Peoples out, the Jester offered them a new home.  They were quick to accept.

FEARLESS
The Booby Folk are anthropomorphic birds about the size of Halflings.  They made quite the show during the War, due to the fact that they were too lacking in awareness to be afraid of anything.  Which made them excellent fighters.  Just not very tactically oriented ones.  Their best move was leaping off cliffs onto enemy divers in the ocean.

SURPRISINGLY BAD SPIES
The Booby Folk lack fear.  They also lack awareness, self or otherwise, and they consider argument to be a high form of entertainment.  Especially with family.  Learning to argue and fight with family prepares them to fight with the rest of the world.  And fight they do.  For the slightest of reasons.

BLUE-FOOTED BOOBY FOLK NAMES
Booby Folk have fairly common naming traditions.

Male Names. Cesar, Gustavo, Joaquin, Mateo, Matias, Omar.

Female Names. Fiorella, Karina, Lorena, Lucero, Sandra, Ximena.

Family Names. Aguilar, Aquino, Cardenas, Condori, Huaman, Mamani.

Sneezer  (Prerequisite: Must be Blue-Footed Booby Folk)
You can drink salt water with no effect, as glands sort out the sodium internally, and redirect it to your mouth and nose.  As part of an Attack Action, you may sneeze as one of the attacks.  This is a ranged attack with a range of 5 feet and do not suffer Disadvantage on the attack roll due to being close to a hostile creature.  You use your Constitution modifier for attack and damage rolls.  If successful, the attack does 2d4 necrotic damage, and the target must make a Constitution Save (Save DC is Con based) or be Blinded for 1 minute. At the end of each of its turns, the target can make a Constitution saving throw. On a success, the effect ends.


Blue Footed Booby Folk
