Hutaakan racial workup for 3E

by Andrew Theisen

Unsatisfied with existing mortal races, and arrogantly desirous of servitude, the Immortal Pflarr created the hutaaka in his image. These slender, jackal-headed humanoids live in remote regions of the world, in a highly structured society.
Personality: Even the lowliest of hutaakans considers himself to be enlightened and intellectual, far above any other race.
Physical Description:
Relations:
Alignment: Hutaakans tend to be of lawful alignments.
Hutaaka Lands:
Religion: Hutaakans almost exclusively follow the teachings of Pflarr. Some extremely remote communities have drifted from his teachings over the millennia, and pay homage to other Immortals of Nithian origins, such as Horus (Ixion) and Ptahr (Kagyar). Rarely, degenerate hutaaka worship Ranivorus.
Language: Hutaaka speak their own language, Hutaakan, which is closely related to Gnollish. It uses the Nithian hieroglyphic system for writing.
