Rak'ath (5e Race)
From D&D Wiki
Rak'ath[edit]
Physical Description[edit]
"Rak'ath" are scaly like individuals and they can adapt to their favored habitat, their description is based around their color (explained at the society section) their eyes are reptilian slit eyes, having rather sharp claws for climbing and fighting. They are also well known for how agile they can be, because of the fact of how light weight most rak'ath can be.
===History=== The history of the rak'ath is rather weird, no one really knows what the history of the rak'ath is or started like, their were a few who knew but most died from complications from aging giving that they live short lives, the oldest record of the rak'ath is stating that a reptilian God made them but the God was never named in the record. Many theories speculate that the reptilian God was killed and quickly forgotten and that is why the God was never named and for the God who killed the reptilian God that is still being debated.
Society[edit]
The society the rak'ath live on habitats, for example their are 8 habitats they can possibly adapt too, 1 artic (white), 2 coast (peachy), 3 desert (orange), 4 forest (dark green), 5 grassland (light green), 6 mountain (grey), 7 swamp (brown), 8 under dark (black), the under dark are the most rare version of the Rak'ath given that they are from the under dark and most Rak'ath prefer to live above ground not below, because of this fact most Rak'ath shun versions of their kind from the under dark. The most common Rak'ath are forest, grassland, coast, and desert these type of rak'ath are popular and get favored over the lesser common, but shall their favor be overused they too will be treated like the under dark versions of them. Finally the regulars, the swamp, mountain, and arctic, these folk are really never hated nor loved by the community, there in the middle.
