[B][I]Age.[/I][/B] A tanuki reaches adulthood at the age of 14 and generally live into the middle of his or her first century. [B][I]Alignment. [/I][/B]Tanuki are chaotic by nature; those that live within the cities of Soburin tend to fall towards evil, while those in the Bunki-Mura of the forests gradually regain some of the benign nature they once embodied before the coming of the Kengen.

[B][I]Brave.[/I][/B] You have advantage on saving throws against being frightened. [I][B]Tail.[/B][/I] You have a tail. You are unable to carry a weapon or shield with your tail, nor can you manipulate fine objects, but you gain advantage when passing secret messages or otherwise communicating using your tail. Vulnerability. You gain vulnerability to acid damage. Subrace.

[B][SIZE=4]Forest Tanuki [/SIZE][/B]As a forest tanuki, you are part of a treetop Bunki-Mura and very much at home in the wilderness.
