Awakened Animal (Apath)

Awakened animals are magical beasts of the augmented animal subtype that are created from normal animals using the awaken druid spell, changes somewhat to be playable as a character race. Most awakened animals are allies or former animal companions of the druids who awakened them, but some have been awakened on a whim or by some location, artifact, ancient magic, or created trough polymorph spells. In Zindia (Vuldra) there are locations, such as ancient ruins or magical pools, that awaken animals or polymorph intelligent creatures into awakened animals. This means that each awakened animal has a unique story, and their motivations are as varied as their origins.

An awakened animal that was an animal has only hazy memories of their life as an animal. much like most humans have of their early years. They remember long-lasting love, friendship or enmity, but day-to-day events are a blur.

Physical Description: Awakened animals resemble the animals they were, but usually have a bit of a tame, well-groomed look about them that wild animals do not have. They are also more well fed, to the point of being in worse physical shape than wild animals - their intelligence lets them get by better than normal animals would under ordinary circumstances.

Society: Only around sites that automatically create new awakened animals does anything like a society exist. This is often among ruins, where the animals hold court and mimic much of human civilized society. In general, the run is then considered a kind of sacred ground where no fighting is allowed. Predatory awakened animals tend to avoid eating other animals who are also awakened, tough they sometimes make a show of hunting them to impress and intimidate.

Awakened animals are divided on the subject of creating more of themselves. Some see it as a right, that all animals should be emancipated by being awakened. Others see awakening as an abomination and themselves as cursed. Both of these are extreme positions, most take a middle view, wanting to awaken their mate and immediate family but not caring much for normal animals of their species and even less for other animals.

Relations: Awakened animals are rare enough that they are thought of as individuals, not a group. At the same time, they are relatively easy to understand and do not look monstrous. This means that once people have realized what the awakened animal is, they can be quite well accepted, especially if they accept animal-like roles in relation to humanoids. Most knight would love to have a talking horse, but if the horse demands to share a bedroom, there might be issues.

Alignment and Religion: Awakened animals tend towards neutral alignments and towards the druidic faith, because that is how most of them came to be. But this is not a given, awakened animals can be of any alignment and devote themselves to any power who is not too biased towards humanoids.

Adventurers: Awakened animals are natural adventurers, as they have no natural niche is normal society. Living as an animal in the wild is a life of adventure in itself, and many awakened animals take naturally to the barbadian, druid, and ranger classes. Some skills are not usable without hands, and that makes some rogue roles hard, but awakened animals thrive as scouts. Large or predatory animals make good fighters and paladins. Most awakened animals lack the intelligence or charisma to make good arcane spellcasters, but some do, and clerics are not uncommon.

Names: Awakened animals are usually given their names by humanoids, and either have normal names depending on what humanoid named them, or have names typically given to animals. There are no typical awakened animal names as such.

Offense Racial Traits

Bite (1d6 plus grab)
Tail slap (1d10)
Grab (Ex): If an alligator hits with a bite attack, it deals normal damage and attempts to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. Grab can only be used against targets of a size equal to or smaller than the creature with this ability. The alligator has the option to conduct the grapple normally, or simply to use the part of its body it used in the grab to hold the opponent. If it chooses to do the latter, it takes a –20 penalty on its CMB check to make and maintain the grapple, but does not gain the grappled condition itself. A successful hold does not deal any extra damage. Each successful grapple check it makes during successive rounds automatically deals bite damage. Creatures with grab receive a +4 bonus on combat maneuver checks made to start and maintain a grapple.
Death Roll (Ex): When grappling a foe of its size or smaller, an alligator can perform a death roll upon making a successful combat maneuver check. As it clings to its foe, it tucks in its legs and rolls rapidly, twisting and wrenching its victim. The alligator inflicts its bite damage and knocks the creature prone. If successful, the crocodile maintains its grapple.
Sprint (Ex): Once per minute an alligator may sprint, increasing its land speed to 40 feet for 1 round.
