If you have at least 20 feet of elevation you can glide a maximum of 14 squares in one turn, but gliding more than 7 squares takes both a standard and move equivalent action. You can glide to avoid falling damage. You cannot glide if you cannot take a movement action. A colony of Kirpsa is called a Drey.  Kirpsa society is hierarchical with the clan leader called the Dreyalt.  They place high value on work ethic and being frugal.  They gather food throughout the year in preparation for winter, and this habit sometimes contributes to a mentality of hording in general.It is common for Kirpsa and Treants to form a symbiotic relationship, where the Kirpsa colony resides on/in the Treant.  In these communities the Treant is usually referred to as “Father Drey”, or “The Keeper”.  In terms of leadership the Treant and the Dreyalt are regarded roughly equally.Sometimes a Kirpsa feels compelled to leave the Drey to see more of the world. This is often referred to as the wander-lust.  With the permission of the Dreyalt these Kirpsa often join adventurers or dwell with Elves or other fey.Play a Kirpsa if you want to be . . .✦ a little known race with an affinity for bows and commitment to community and comrades.✦ quick on your feet, respectful, practical, and straight-forward.✦ a member of a race that favors the rogue or ranger classes.</blockquote>
