Ghoul[edit]
Picking a Ghoul as a class has the Prerequisite of being a Ghoul as a race.
Half breeds gain one extra proficiency of their choice but aren't well received by either side.
Ghouls are a humanoid abomination that are indistinguishable from normal humans by looks alone. Whether they were made or born no longer matters to those who hunt them and only affects humans as a species.

Class Features[edit]
Hunger[edit]
As a Ghoul, your diet is comprised of three things, Flesh, Coffee, and Water. Ghouls require one raw meal (human, specifically) per 6 + your Constitution modifier days, otherwise, they will attack the nearest living creature (excluding undead and constructs) and attempt to kill and eat them on sight.
Ghouls usually wear a mask when hunting in order to keep their identity a secret. When your Kagune is out or you're eating or hungry, Your sclera (White part of the eye) turns black and your iris turns blood red. If you fail to meet your hunger requirements you gain the starvation condition. If you consume food beyond your ghoul diet, you must succeed a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or vomit, and regardless of the outcome it does not count toward your food requirement.
Starvation[edit]
This condition makes the creature enter a berserk state in which they will attack the nearest source of food be that friend or foe. The condition ends once enough food has been consumed. (this is DM discretion however amount of food needed is one full medium humanoid.)
