CAPPY
Cappy are a furred, semi-aquatic
ancestry who have a well-deserved
reputation as being among the
friendliest and most outgoing
people in all Tooj. Some go so far as
to suggest that they are far t oo trusting
and lack any caution in dealing with
outsiders - a trait that has led to tragedy
more than once.
Despite this, cappy society never loses its
optimistic glimmer for long as steadfast refusal to judge
the many by the few stands as one of the pillars of their
community. Though repeat offenders are given little
leeway before enough is enough and even the cappy are
driven to anger.
They are uniformly vegetarian, highly social and seem
to possess a natural affinity for the simple creatures that
exist alongside them. Cappy populaces are usually gentle
and unassuming communities, rarely committing to
violence in any meaningful way, but are often made up of
farmers, fisherfolk, priests and affable wayfarers offering
aid to wayfarers in need.

Water Lovers
Cappy communities are almost exclusively located
near large bodies of fresh water, in which family groups
spend much of their time each day. Those rare few that away from their beloved baths for too long are prone to
are located elsewhere have large common uncharacteristic irritability brought about by parasites or
bathing facilities that utilize skin lesions.
water conjured by magic or Bathing areas are important community locations
simply carried by hand where cappy villagers meet and make collective decisions
overland. Cappy kept in a relaxed environment. Decisions are by consensus,
and the cappy are known for never explicitly arguing – an
atmosphere that can be either relaxing or infuriating
to a participant, depending on their stake in what is
being discussed.

Kin to All
Cappy have an innate empathy for living creatures that
puts beasts as ease around them. Even normally danger-
ous, wild creatures have been known to traipse into and
laze about their villages without any hint of aggression
towards the villagers or other creatures in the vicinity. For
their part, the cappy welcome these visits as minor bless-
ings from the Asura and happily allow these creatures to
come and go as they please.
Cappy can learn to use their natural affinity for animals
to communicate with and to some extent direct animals’
behavior, though they avoid doing so if it will cause the
animals to come to harm. If threatened, a cappy often
calls upon nearby animals to distract and harass their ene-
mies, allowing them to escape or otherwise avoid danger.

 Only to Defend
A cappy community’s response to aggres-
sion is consistent with their members’
earnest and peaceful disposition; they
far prefer flight to fight and usually try
to withdraw rather than cause harm. Though
when circumstance forces the issue, a cappy takes
up arms as readily as any - but usually only long enough
to give them and their comrades a chance to flee. Cappy
martial artists are even renowned across Tooj for special-
izing in techniques that misdirect or delay foes rather
than cause injury.
Harming or even killing another creature is seen as a dire
taboo by many cappy, with those who commit such acts –
even accidentally – often withdrawing from their commu-
nities in penance.
Due to this philosophy, cappy are rarely found adventur-
ing. When they are, it’s usually as healers or sages with
practical views regarding the necessity of their and their
companions’ work, or they were raised outside of cappy
communities. In rare cases, they might even be pariahs
who have turned away from cappy culture at large in the
face of a dire threat.

and your allies.
