[Amendment] Hou-zi Amendment

[Shiredom 1550]

REDLINES

⬦ A Hou-Zi’s strength is comparable to a Human across all three sub-races. Legacy Hei-Zhu [Gorillas] are the exception, who possess Orc strength.

⬦ A Hou-Zi’s grip strength will NOT inflict harm beyond a standard grip. This is to say that a pinch will not pierce skin, nor is a Hou-Zi capable of tearing flesh in a fell-swoop. The grip strength of a Hou is intended to be more akin to a clamp that is difficult to remove.

⬦ A Hou-Zi’s sense of balance enables them to withstand concussive forces that would otherwise knock them down, such as is seen with some magic spells and blasting potions. That said, they remain vulnerable to tackling and will still receive the damage from said concussive abilities.

⬦ A Hou-Zi’s ability to manipulate objects with their feet and tail is passive and CANNOT be utilized in combat. Beyond balance, the reasoning is simply that they cannot focus per their engagement.

⬦ A Hou-Zi, given their Lesser Soul, is only capable of learning the MAs of Housemagic, Bardmancy, Kani and Seer. Feats which do not have prerequisite magic requirements other than those listed are also compatible. NOTE: If the magic is not listed but explicitly includes compatibility with Hou-Zi, it is permissible.
⬦ Hou-Zi cannot reproduce with Legacy Hei-Zhu to produce more. In general, avoid ERPing with Hou-Zi.

⬦ Hou-zi are biologically unable, and OOCly prohibited from breeding with Non Hou-zi

 

Reasoning:

If Kha's can't FTB with Non Kha's then Hou-zi's shouldn't either.

That was 10 hours (and counting) in which Hou-zi were allowed to FTB with your average descendant.

I wonder if anyone managed to do it already...
