DESCRIPTION
A Wookie is part of the Wookie race, a tall species of hairy humanoids, which can reach a height of nearly three meters. They are covered from head to toe in a thick, shaggy hair coat with water-shedding properties that stand out in shades of brown, black, gray and white. They are divided into female and male and the latter has grown long beards in adult life. The Wookies are great eaters requiring thousands of calories per day of food and consist of wild plants, meat, spices and berries. These creatures, despite coming from a temperate planet characterized by swamps and forests, were able to adapt easily even in the cold territories without the need of coverings.
The Honor Code. They have extensible claws that they only use to climb; using them for anything else would violate their Honor Code. Despite their frightening appearance and unstable temperament, the Wookiee are considered intelligent, sophisticated, loyal and confident. The Wookiee initially had a very high life expectancy, until they reached hundreds of years and after fifty years they seemed not to grow old either, but over time their lifespan decreased much due to working conditions. They learned to understand other languages, such as Common, but were physically unable to speak. This tends to be quite annoying when trying to communicate with them.
Their principles. They are experienced artisans and most of them carry heavy crossbows as weapons, which they craft. It is not uncommon to see a Wookiee hugging a spear or a pair of blades. In Wookiee society, loyalty and courage were valued as sacrosanct principles. The highest way a Wookiee can compliment someone is to clean it, so if one of them behaves like that in your presence, at least, you can be proud. These creatures after twelve years performed rituals to enter adult life and no one was considered an artist for their manual work as their carving skills were considered a mere survival.
A Wookie (DnD 5e) is part of the Wookie race, a tall species of furry humanoids, who can grow to a height of nearly three meters. They are covered from head to toe in a thick, shaggy coat of hair with water-shedding properties that notably come in shades of brown, black, gray, and white.
The latter grow long beards in adult life. Wookie eye colors range from blue to brown.
Wookiees have extendable claws which they use only for climbing; using them for anything else would violate the Wookiee Honor Code.
Despite their fearsome appearance and volatile temperament, Wookiees are regarded as intelligent, sophisticated, loyal, and trusting. Wookiees have typically a sort of lifespan confronting them to other races, appearing not to age over a span of fifty years. They have learned to understand other languages, like Common, but they were physically unable to speak them. This tends to be quite annoying when trying to communicate with them.
Most Wookiees carry heavy crossbows as weaponry, which they handcraft. It’s not rare though to see a Wookiee embracing a spear or a pair of blades. In the Wookiee society, loyalty and courage were valued as sacrosanct tenets.
The highest way a Wookiee can compliment someone is to groom them, so, if a Wookiee is acting like that in your presence, at least, you can be proud of it.
Tactics
The Wookiee usually takes cover and shoots with its crossbow from a safe position.
In melee combat, it uses spears or blades, often without a shield, but rarely it will use its claws.
When it sees a group of enemies a Wookiee surely will throw a bomb to cause as much damage as it can.
