Bellig

These hairy, bipedal reptilians are purely carnivorous, and naturally both territorial and violent. They reach adulthood at 2 years old, and are extremely weak with age to the point of death by 40. Unlike Humans, they are not typically pack animals, and would have great difficulty maintaining any sort of technological or linguistic developments if it were not for their genetic memories, and more limited ability to ingest the memories of other creatures by eating their brains.

Race  Bellig

By devouring the brain of a creature (this takes 3 Standard Actions), the Bellig can learn any one language that creature knew, or a one-hour period of that creature's memories.

Belligs are somewhat attuned with Purple energies to the point that a predominance of other colors can impair their thinking. If they have more non-Purple gems implanted than Purple ones, they must use one of their hands to clutch their head in agony.

Forbidden Options

Defender, doctor, warlord, diplomat: Belligs don't have the patience or empathy to appreciate protecting others to that extent.
