Honey Badgerkin[edit]

Personality[edit]

Like their animal ancestors, badgerkin just don’t care. They are brazen in all things and entirely lacking in any sort of social graces. They are aggressive towards everything, including other badgerkin. Their behavior could be described as savage. They strictly eat meat, usually raw and freshly killed. Badgerkin are generally unhygienic. This combined with their brazen and fearless behavior has led to them being known as "crazy nastyass honey badgerkin".


Physical Description[edit]

Standing between 5 and 6 feet tall, badgerkin are Medium-sized, bipedal honey badgers. They are covered in fur and rarely wear clothing. Their fur is mostly black except on their backs, starting at the top of their heads and running down to the tip of their tails where the fur is a dingy white/yellow color. They also smell horrendously; partially from lack of hygiene, and partly do to the skunk like odor glands they use to mark territory or use to discourage attackers and intruders.

Relations[edit]

Badgerkin are feared and/or despised by most other races because of their crazy, nastyass, aggressive behaviors and complete lack of respect for any and all other beings.

Alignment[edit]

Badgerkin, being more beast than humanoid, are usually Neutral.

Lands[edit]

Badgerkin live in grasslands, forests, deserts, and mountains.

Religion[edit]

Badgerkin have no religion, because they just don’t care.

Language[edit]

Badgerkin do not speak, but they can understand things told to them in Common or Elven. Badgerkin communicate through body language, and animalistic snarls, growls, grunts, and their trademark call: “Nung! Nung! Nung! Nung! Nung! Nung! Nung!”
