The Karu Race [5e]

From a distance, this tribal race of swamp
dwellers may resemble that of a human. It isn't
until closer investigation that one can discern the
striking differences.

Living in the swamps has
given them a grayish green skin tone and they're
bodies are often scattered with grainy warts and
perturbing mutations, two examples include
extra limbs sprouting from places they shouldn't and
protruding bones, from their spinal back region.
It is then that one comes to realize why many men and
women tell nefarious stories about these karu to their
children as warnings not to go running off into the night.

However, the karu often share similar traits to that of humans
and elves. Ranging from 5 to 6 feet tall and weighing around
the same as humans. Their facial structure resembles that of
a particularly tough-skinned human, often with oblong
features.

The karu, male and female cannot grow any body
hair whatsoever. Karu age is quite different than that of
humans and especially so of the elves, as they age slightly
faster, maturing around the age of 10 and often times
expiring around the age of 60 at the oldest.
