[QUOTE="Tequila Sunrise, post: 3026412, member: 40398"] I'm a little surprised that nobody has ever created a female-centric race. I realize that most d&d gamers play in 'modern psychologized' campaigns where nobody blinks an eye at a woman wearing pants and swinging a sword. I'm just a little surprise that nobody has yet capitalized on that small population of gamers that would be attracted to a Wonderwoman/Lara Croft/Sara Pezzini/Xena type of 'femheroine'. Anyway, I'm adding a few races for my next homebrew and the amazon is one of them: Amazons are a race composed entirely of coal skinned females. A typical amazon stands 6’ 6” tall and weighs 120 pounds; lithe and shapely, amazons possess legendary beauty. An amazon is like a cat in many ways; wily, fickle, self-confident and self-sufficient. The amazonian homeland is Amazon, a land of thick wet jungle where these warrior-women rule supreme. While there are amazon village-ports on the coast of their land, most amazons prefer to live in the wild to hunt, gather and trade for their livelihoods. For the first time at puberty, and every few years afterward, an amazon feels the urge to travel outside of her homeland to mate with some comely male usually of the human or selkie variety. Immediately after mating, she feels drawn inexorably back to Amazon where she bears a pair of twins. One is always a male of the father’s species, while the other is always a female amazon. The male children are immediately sent back to their father’s homeland, though rumor persists that many of these male children are left to die, burned or even eaten by their mothers. • Typical Alignment: Chaotic Neutral. • +2 Dexterity, -2 Intelligence, -2 Charisma. • Medium. • Base speed 40 feet. • Low-light Vision. • +2 racial bonus on Listen and Spot checks. • Automatic Languages: Common and Amazonian. • Favored Class: Ranger.
