Hoegarth (Rodent Folk)

Smaller than many halflings, the Hoegarth are a race of humanoid and humanized rodents ranging from mice and rats to chipmunks and squirrels.

Hoegarth Racial Traits

+2 Wisdom, +2 Dexterity, -2 Strength: The Hoegarth are quick and wise like many of the rats and mice they resemble as well their relative weakness.

Small Size: Hoegarth are much like the rodents they are often likened to and gain a +1 to Armor Class and Attack rolls due to size but suffer a -2 to CMB and CMD as well as a +4 bonus to stealth.

Slow Speed: Hoegarth have a base land speed of 20 ft.

Low Light Vision: Hoegarth can see twice as far as humans in low light conditions.

Keen Senses: Hoegarth receive a +2 bonus on all Perception checks.

Strong Swimmer: Hoegarth receive a +2 bonus on all Swim.

Carrier: Hoegarth are immune to all diseases but can be carriers of those contagions they encounter. Any new disease that a player encounters still necessitates a Fortitude roll but this is done in secret by the GM and failure indicates the Hoegarth picks up the disease and can spread it to her companions.

Author's Note: I have always thought that a race based on rodents should be small. I made this for all those that prefer mice, rats, squirrels and chipmunks as opposed to beavers and rabbits.
