 Jaguarfolk at a Glance
Ability Adjustments:
Wis -1
Dex +2
Con -1
Lks +1
Cha -1

Pros:
*Size Medium for HP (10 + Constitution Bonus)
*Low Light Vision
*Free purchase of Listening, Observation, Sneaking, Tracking
*Initiative Bonus & Hiding in Natural Surroundings (as elf)
*Claws: Jaguarfolk have retractable claws on their hands and feet. As a weapon, these do d3p hacking damage; Speed 5, Reach 0. When used to aid in climbing, Jaguarfolk are always considered at least Novice climbers, and the climb is one degree easier. Jaguarfolk may make one purchase of Climbing at half cost.

Cons:
*Native Language is Jaguarfolk. Other langauges purchased in character creation cost 2 BP.
*Strange and Exotic: As animal-like outsiders, the base reaction to jaguarfolk is Disdain; many have to be convinced that they are people. Someone with an Animal Phobia of Felines, or a Superstition that cats are unlucky, will Fear them.
*Clothes and Armor: Jaguarfolk themselves seldom wear clothing, and never wear armor.  With tails, digitigrade stride, and top-mounted ears, Jaguarfolk also cannot wear standard boots, shoes, helmets, or armor. Jaguarfolk of all classes begin without proficiency in armor, though they retain shield proficiency if their class provides it, and may learn shield proficiency normally.  Armor Proficiency requires 50% more BP to learn, and all armor must be custom made. Clothing for colder weather requires a 25% mark-up, mostly in foot protection.
*Magic Aversion: Jaguarfolk seldom use the magic of mages, hybrid mages, sorcerers, or witch doctors; those who do are almost always evil. A jaguarfolk of these classes will have the Nagging Conscience quirk if not-evil. This quirk may be bought off normally.
*Aversion to Cold: Jaguarfolk despise the cold and suffer the following penalties in chilly weather or versus supernatural effects:
•a -1/5% penalty to all rolls/checks when the temperature is below 50° F.
•a -2/10% penalty to all rolls/checks when the temperature is below 32° F.
•save at a -4 against Cold-related spells and effects
•suffer an extra 10% damage (rounded up) from cold related spells and effects

Clergy: Deities common among the Jaguarfolk are the Shimmering One, the Great Huntress, and the Bear (who they, quite reasonably, do not envision as a bear).  These clergy are available for 30 BP. Uncommon deities include the The Traveler, The Watcher, The Storm Lord, Risk, and the Laugher. These clergy are available for 40 BP. Some darker tribes worship the Emperor of Scorn, the Seller of Souls, The Prince of Terror, or the Vicelord. These are also available for 40 BP. Other deities are relatively unknown among the Jaguarfolk; they require 70 BP.
