Humanoid - Gravisplume

Published:

Description

The last race that I would put "original" on... everything else I use is heavily based on existing stock fantasy races.

Gravisplumes look like they could be described as Monster Folk, but they actually haven't had any problems with mankind, and were equally tormented by monsters back in less peaceful times.

Having feathers, but no flight, has always been a bit of a touchy subject to them. Their kind is constantly trying to invent ways of flying without wings, with some success, but nothing small enough for one Gravisplume to fly... Apart from that, they are pretty gifted mechanics, of course that cannot be said for all Gravisplumes.

Their feather colors are said to be different depending on what part of the world they come from. It's popular for fathers of different colors to be implanted into their plumes for fashion. During the winter, all of their feathers turn white, and molt off later, with a new colorful coat.

Their ancestors were wanderers, so they do not have any set homeland.

Nice use of colors on the feathers. These folks are kind of neat.
