Wemic Runt

1 variants

Though exiled for being too small nothing stops the Wemic Runt from proving their might and skill. They venture out and build relationships, learn skills that traditional Wemics are not open to such as studying, metal working, and earning a livelihood. They become fierce warriors and staunch allies to their adventuring parties as they prove that their worth comes from within and not from without.

Runts of the Litter

A Wemic Runt has reached full maturity at one year of age and has not grown to a size sufficient to be a part of the pride. Runts are left to their own devices and are the most common Wemics to be found out adventuring and seeking to build relationships with other races. The prideful nature of Wemics prevents them from becoming angry and bitter most of the time with a majority choosing to become their best selves and overcome their unfortunate circumstances.

Lion Centaurs

Wemics are larger and stronger than humans, and can make great leaps with a running start. Both their humanoid hands and feline feet bear claws, with their fore claws being extremely sharp. They have keen eyesight, including darkvision, and exceptional hearing. The humanoid part of Wemics have feline characteristics around their eyes, ears and nose with pointed teeth, and their entire bodies are covered in golden fur, save for their white underbellies and black-tipped tails. Males had thick, black, lion-like manes.

While standard Wemics stand at 6-7 ft tall and are 10-12 ft long and weigh 600 lbs by one year old. Runts grow to a maximum of 4.5-5 ft tall and are 7 ft long at most and weigh around 250 lbs.

Nature Orientated and Superstitious

They are careful nomads that move in prides that never overhunt or use too many resources and therefore are always on the move. Some of them become solitary and leave the pride often becoming shepherds if they are more docile or mercenaries if they were exiled or are looking to prove themselves. All Wemics view magic with suspicion with the exception of druidic magic which they adore.
