Race: Kender
Kenders are an entirely different race. They are often confused with short Humans or
very tall Hobbits; They are about four and a half - five feet - and have something of the look of
the small human. However they have Elf-like pointed ears and expressive faces.
Kenders have unique personalities which make them something of a joke race but do not
be fooled by their faces. These creatures have no fear, seeming oblivious to the possibility
that there could be any danger. They are highly independent and very mobile, allowing their
insatiable curiosity to carry them into any situation. Life in the deep desert made them
develop immunity to certain type ofpoisons and acid. They also have no concept of personal
property, and so will take anything which catches their attention, keep it for as long as it
suits them, and abandon it when they find something to replace it.
The fearlessness does not result in recklessness; Kenders are fierce fighters when they
need to be, and they are reasonably cautious when not driven by their curiosity. They will not
throw their lives away haphazardly, but will often suggest plans which seem absurd on the
surface but might succeed. That makes them perfect assassins when it comes to it.
Still, if there's any place from which no one has returned, Kender wants to be the first one to
see it. They are interested in everything, from the magical to the beautiful to the dangerous to
the disgusting. They are impulsive, not considering the possible outcomes of their actions.
