The Elder Scrolls Conversion Project; Beast races

There are several races of beastfolk in the world of the Elder Scrolls, but the most common ones are the catfolk Khajiit and the lizardmen Argonian. Here are the statistics for them




The Khajiit

The humanoid catfolk race of Khajiit come from the lands of exotic Elsweyr. There are many "forms" of Khajiit, as their appearance and physical abilities are influenced by the the phase of the moons at their birth, most adventuring Khajiit are however of the forms Ohmes, Ohmes-raht, Suthay and Suthay-raht.
Khajiit are cunning and agile creatures, fully covered with fur and have sharp claws. They have manes, but they either shave it off, or wear it in braids. They also have long cat like tails. They are excellent thieves as they are naturally stealthy and possess darkvision. This, and their addiction to skooma often causes them to be on the wrong end of the law.
