Fereg

Identification: Feregs are a brutish race, which is reflected well by their appearance. They stand roughly 1.8 meters tall and weigh upwards of 75 kilograms. A Fereg's body is rough in texture, and they possess massive amounts of body hair. Skin coloration is most often dark, bordering on grays and blacks. Fereg's arms are extremely long, extending down to their knees and ending in seven fingered hands. Their lower canines are enlarged and usually curl upwards.

Habitat and Culture: Feregs are generally found in crude settlements amidst mountainous terrain and swamps. When found in cities they are generally located in the most run down parts. They need little to make them happy--a roof over their heads and a warm fire to sit by. Large groups will cluster together in one home, dwelling in very cramped quarters. Feregs are very accomodating and will often lend a hand to those that need it, offering whatever assistance they can.

Feregs are not very bright, although not from a lack of trying. Their low intelligence is often too much for most teachers to handle. They are well regarded as menial laborers because of their strength and willingness to please. However they are often regarded as less than sentient by other races. There is the rare fereg that has managed to learn a few things, and it is these few individuals that surprise many people and tend to shatter the normal Fereg mold.

Feregs are also known to make great soldiers. They are fairly loyal and their strength and low intelligence seem to make them great additions to any army, usually as fodder for the front lines. While not the brightest, they do obey orders to the best of their ability, and they are known for never questioning the orders they are given.

Some Feregs are known to dwell underground as well, making their homes near Druga strongholds. Even though they are descended from the goblin races, they get along rather well with the half dwarves, most likely due to their hard working nature. Plus, Drugas see hope in the Feregs; it pleases them that not all goblinoid races are evil. Plus, in the lands of eternal darkness any ally is a welcome one.

Racial Abilities: Feregs can see in the infra-red spectrum to a limited degree. They are also a very robust race and react slowly to pain and discomfort. Their long arms often give them an advantage in melee and unarmed combat, giving them a +1 bonus to all such attacks.

Attribute Modifiers: Feregs are a strong and healthy race. They are not very bright and often find it hard to learn new things. Most races don't consider Feregs to be equals and tend to put them down, yet they don't hate them outright.
