Lepus, an Animal Race
Description:
Imagine a hugely-muscled humanoid rabbit standing over six feet tall, dressed in a loincloth and wielding a blood-stained two-handed sword. Then imagine a while ARMY of them, leaping into battle with a howling cry and snatching incoming arrows out of the air with their feet. Scary? In truth, the Lepus are a peace-loving and life affirming people, content to live in touch with nature far from the grasp of mankind. Their leaders are wise and have perfected spiritual harmony and balance. The remainder of the populace are semi-barbaric, nomadic forest-dwellers, living in thatch-roofed burrows on the fringes of civilized nations. The Lepus as a race are known to despise the Undead, and go out of their way to destroy such creatures of darkness.
