Esquirels[edit]

Personality[edit]

All esquirels seem to have their own mental quirks, but quirkiness is universal among them. Whether stricken by paranoid fear or possessed of unending personal energy, esquirels cannot simply remain boring and normal.

Physical Description[edit]

Esquirels range from between 3'6" and 4'6" tall, with thin to moderate builds hidden deceptively under huge bushy amounts of fur, which give them a chubby appearance. Fur color varies as much as a traditional squirrels, and eye colors come in all sorts of hues. They tend to be lightweight to better go with their slight swift statue.

Relations[edit]

Esquirels generally make their homes in forests, with their own tree communities. While curious and often getting in the way of something, they are not inherently malicious. Often they cut good deals with elves and other forest dwellers. Esquirels found outside the forest are undoubtedly adventurers, whose curiosity and wanderlust have exceeded their tendency to fear.

Alignment[edit]

Usually chaotic, their odd natures do not lend well to lawful stances.

Lands[edit]

Forests.

Religion[edit]

Religious worship tends to be forests on nature spirits, but as with the adventuresome sort, there are constantly exceptions.

Language[edit]

Common and Sylvan.

Names[edit]

Names are acquired in the manner of other races, though it's been said they favor names which sound like 'chittering noises'. This is most obvious in their last names.
