Overview

These creatures are so infused with an emotion that they force it upon others. Each type of Feemara governs one emotion. The Feemara wish that everyone and everything around them express their emotion, and they will do anything possible to accomplish that goal.

Few other creatures are willing to interact with the Feemara. Animals waste themselves away, while intelligent creatures understand the danger behind them. The few that are willing are either escapists, hoping to drown their sorrows away, or manipulative, hoping to trick the Feemara into working for them.

Feemara are humanoid-shaped. Their appearances reflect the emotion they express.. The only distinctive feature is the color of their skin: the same for each type.

Feemara actively search for intelligent life to force their emotions upon. They are usually driven out of large civilized areas (unless the Feemara are very powerful,) so PCs may find Feemara almost anywhere. The Feemara make an interesting monster character, although they would have to practice restraint of their emotions, or they may bother the rest of the party.

Emotion Aura (Su): This is the trademark ability of the Feemara. They have the ability to change the emotions of anyone who stays with them. Anyone within 30 feet of the Feemara must make a Will save or be overcome with an emotion. The effect lasts until 5 rounds after the user leaves the Feemara's range. Feemara are immune to Emotion Aura.

Lingering Emotion (Su): Stronger Feemara are able to exert themselves even more, forcing a more concentrated form of their feelings on an individual. Feemaras love to welcome powerful nonbelivers with this ability.

The Feemara chooses a target within 60 ft. If the target is willing, the effect automatically works. Otherwise the target may make a Will save with a +4 bonus. Affected targets are overcome with the Feemara's emotion for 2 days per HD of the Feemara.

Ragaren

Ragaren are short, burly creatures who always have a bone to pick with someone. They are always a bit angry about the current events and actively blame others. Those who stay nearby the Ragaren become extremely furious and lash out at everyone who has ever offended them.

Ragaren's skin is extremely rough. The skin is littered with spikes, and the skin is bright red. Their heads are more smooth than the rest of the body. The two eyes glow brightly whenever the Ragaren is angry or blaming something.

Ragarens speak Common and Sylvan.

Combat

Ragarens are best used as strikers. They usually charge into battle and enter melee combat, concentrating everything against one opponent at a time. Because their Emotion Aura does not discriminate friend from foe, Ragarens like to end battles quickly. Smaller Ragerens use their javelins, while larger ones like to grapple.

Some tacticians actually use the Emotion Aura to their advantage. Some use the Ragarens in armies, mentally preparing their soldiers for more punishment. Others are more cruel and send a weak Ragaren in to distract the front lines while a strike force and archers take out the inside.

If they expect a battle, a Ragaren will bolster itself with Bull's Strength and start the battle off with Rage. For far away opponents, Ragarens rely on Lesser Geasto prevent them from retreating (their favorite quest: "Stay right there, punk!") An Elder Ragaren who has the chance to cast Tenser's Transformation is quite frightening.

AS CHARACTERS

Feemaras are continuously radiating their Emotion Aura. Ragarens will continuously anger those around them, so PCs should be willing to play the part of the angry guy. The preferred class is Barbarian.

Le' hayl

Le' hayl are energetic creatures that aim to make those around them happy. They try their best to tend to people's needs, as long as they see a smile. Once they find an interesting target, Le' hayl will stick with it and not leave until the target is eternally satisfied (or wastes away in the meantime.) Le' hayl want those around them to be happy as well, regardless of the situation.

Le' hayl are sleek, smooth, sinewy humanoids with pure white bodies. Le' hayl are seldom seen in their natural form. When trying to please someone, Le' hayl use their illusionary powers to appear as an attractive member of their target's race.

Of all the Feemara, Le' hayl are the most interested in civilizations. Many Le' hayl like to infiltrate towns and please as many citizens as possible. There are stories about adventurers travelling to rural towns full of happy people, even after natural disasters have ravaged the town. There are many stories of powerful people who died in terrible accidents when Le' hayl tried to grant their wish. As long as the target died happily, the Le' hayl do not care.

Le' hayl speak Elven, Undercommon, Halfling, Sylvan and Common.

COMBAT

Le' hayl are rarely in combat situations (unless their opponent invites them to a friendly duel.) The few battles that do emerge end with a flurry of Charm Monster spells. Le' hayl move into the largest group of weak characters, since it is easier to charm them. The stronger Le' hayl usually try to charm the strongest target before charming the rest. A Le' hayl is not above begging for its life in exchange for services and information.

AS CHARACTERS

Le' hayl are willing to do almost anything to please everyone, short of suicidal tasks. Le' hayl will heavily interfere with battles because they will try to charm everyone into not attacking each other. The favored class is Bard and Rogue.
