Rolaan Creation Guide

Rolaan are a reptilian race with a penchant for living underground

Like the abilities list on the species template, this gives a rundown of key points every player must consider.

Rolaan, by nature of their biology, cannot pronounce P, B, M, or V sounds. They have a sound very much like an “F” but otherwise they have no qualms with pronunciation. Rolaan names follow a “NAME ChildOfName” format. The “ChildOf” prefix in this case being “Fi-” and the second name belonging to the parent that either A: had more prestige or B: Lay an uncontested claim to the child. Eggs that go unclaimed or abandoned end up getting a “Sa-” for the prefix and the name of the town they were born to as the last name. Rolaan names, due to their language consisting of trilling sounds, tend to be short and to the point.

Use this to show common upbringings in the species/culture. Try to list at least three paths - but remember, these are supposed to be common, but not the ONLY options.

Condense species page appearance down for this section, with colourations and occurrence. Be sure to note obvious signifiers and fashions and other such commonalities.

This should be something influenced by societal education. Magic and psionic talents (Including specific disciplines) are in this category. Natural racial abilities should be listed here as well.

Shows examples of how to take a common upbringing and personalize it, including major historical events, otherwise give you basic ways to flesh out the background. Where were they when X was attacked? When a natural disaster hit? etc.

This is where you link anything that would be helpful for potential players to take a look at.
