RACES OF IVALICE

Bangaa
The Bangaa are a reptilian race, their bodies covered with scales and their ears
drooping well below their tapered snouts. If one put asides these physical differences,
their intelligence and mannerisms are little different from those of humes. For this
reason, they are often considered the race most at home with humes. There are those
humes who do not accept them, typically using the racial slur "lizard man" to demean
them... when they are safely out of earshot. Bangaa may live twice as long as the
average hume, bearing offspring only infrequently. They are strong, with keen senses of
hearing and smell. They speak in guttural tones, lacking the refined vocal organs to
articulate themselves as the other races might, which makes it difficult for a bangaa to
master any but the most rudimentary of hume magicks. Still, there are some bangaa
who become adept mages, wielding powerful magicks unique to their race's reptilian
tongue.

insight.

Nu Mou
The wise and gentle Nu Mou, a tribe of lop-eared mages and spellcasters, are famous
for their thirst for learning and their discovery of the most esoteric of magical rites.
They have gray, leathery skin, and long, lop-rabbit ears, often pierced by heavy jewelry.
They have snouts, and sport elegantly long tails covered in heavy orange fur, giving
them a bestial cast that doesnt mesh with their cautious, timid ways. The Nu Mou are
sagacity-embodied scholars who are rarely seen outside of their impressive academic
towers, except when working on behest of professors or politicians. They are devoted
enough to the ideal of knowledge, power, and education to sacrifice themselves for
this cause, if need be.

Their natural affinity with mana makes them very perceptive of magic. Nu Mou can
use Detect Magic as a spell-like ability at will. If they already have access to the same
spell as spellcasters, they automatically succeed on the aura verification check.

torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. They retain the ability to
distinguish color and detail under these conditions.

are always considered trained in these skills for all effects. Nu mou society revolves
around religion and magic.

and hearing are especially acute, allowing them to track prey from a distance of many
leagues. The viera listen to the sacred voice of the Woods, and by her voice, learn all
that goes on beyond her boundaries. Called the Green Word, it is the law by which the
viera live by. Yet for some viera this is not enough. Those who cannot content
