# Custom Races

## Otterfolk

Adept hunters and capable swimmers, otterfolk prefer to live on the edges of society, where they never have to worry about having their tails stepped on.

### Otterfolk Names

Each otterfolk has two first or "given" names, a middle name consisting of a color, and a surname, of which each family's name is a drink of sorts.

Some families stick to an old rule where the acronym made from an individual's full name can be read as a descriptor, a virtue, or other concept that can at times be very appropriate for the individual, like below:

* Rodger Anthony Turqoise Horchata - RATH - Wrath
* Bodhi Lorel Saffron Sangria - BLSS - Bliss or Bless
* Sidney Arthur Silver Sarsparilla - SASS - Sass

### Otterfolk Traits

*__Semiaquatic.__* You can swim with a speed of 30 and can hold you breath underwater for 5 minutes.

*__Subrace.__* Three main subraces of otterfolk populate the world of Valents: river otters, sea otters, and giant otters. Choose one of these subraces.

## Gnoll

Demonic in origin, gnolls are ruthless hunters and a force to be reckoned with.
In the world of Valents, gnolls are much less feral and more of a common sight, though not fully integrated into society. Still, their natural combat abilities make them worthy allies in a fight.

### Gnoll Names

A gnoll's name is usually only two syllables, of which the first syllable is shared between all members of the family of the same gender. As an example, if a male gnoll is named Garnult, his father, brothers, uncles, and grand fathers are named some variation, with *Gar-* being the first part of their name.

### Satyr Names
Satyr originally did not have names, simply referring to each other as, "that one", or, "no, the other one", however this was never going to work in any society outside of the Fey Wilds. Now, satyr simply pick their names for themselves, sometimes changing them when they find one they like better, or that they assign a higher value to. Many a satyr are named after the Divine, because of course they are.
