From D&D Wiki
Batgonoid[edit]
Giant bats with terrible vision but excellent hearing
Physical Description[edit]
They are Large Bats with a Humanoid Appearance and Shape, Large Ears, Faces with Underdeveloped and Small Eyes, Slender Arms and Legs and Wings attached to the Arms.
History[edit]
Centuries and centuries ago, a Powerful Demon made his way to the Human World, Where he embarked on a campaign of conquest and destruction, but before his defeat, he transmuted a group of bats, which assumed a more humanoid and slender form, until they became Humanoid Bats that would be known as Human Bats. Over the years and years, they evolved, developed intelligence and their own Language based on rapid Clicking and Growls Sounds, But they quickly divided between the Tribes that worshiped the Demon, and the tribes that wished to forget their fiend heritage, And soon an eternal rivalry and hatred between these different types of tribes arose and has lasted to this day.
Society[edit]
Human bats live in tribes in caves connected underground, where they live in darkness for much of the time, which made them lose their eyes due to the lack of light, and at night, they go out of the caves to hunt, either hunting humanoids by the Demon-worshipping tribes, or collecting Fruits and hunting animals by the more peaceful tribes.
