{"name":"Tortle","abilityscores":"+2 Str, +1 Wis","size":"Medium","speed":"30ft.","languages":"Common, Aquan","features":"[h1]Basic informations[\/h1]\r\n[h2]Lore[\/h2]\r\nTortles aren't known well in the human lands, as they tend to keep to themselves and not concern themselves with worldly things and travel. Those that know them speak of their gentleness and love of peace and the life around them. Tortles met are usually some of the best philosophers and judges on the basis of fairness. Tortles tend to be slow moving, unselfish, and unconcerned in most things. Tortles value family life above other things and are content living as simple farmers and scholars. Those who make enemies of the tortles, however, learn just how strong and quick they are to strike back and that usually the hardest to provoke are the toughest to defeat.\r\n\r\nTheir small communities live in the [url=https:\/\/www.worldanvil.com\/w\/deia-matedesign\/map\/5f40883a-3c80-4fd0-971d-e50497a11e37]Haelm Pelu[\/url] fighting against Yuan-Ti expansions.\r\n[h2]Age[\/h2]\r\n Young tortles crawl for a few weeks after birth before learning to walk on two legs. They reach adulthood by the age of 15 and live an average of 50 years.\r\n[h2]Alignment[\/h2]\r\nTortles tend to lead orderly, ritualistic lives. They develop customs and routines, becoming more set in their ways as they age. Most are lawful good. A few can be selfish and greedy, tending more toward evil, but it's unusual for a tortle to shuck off order in favor of chaos.\r\n[h2]Size[\/h2]\r\nTortle adults stand 5 to 6 feet tall and average 450 pounds. Their shells account for roughly one-third of their weight. Your size is Medium.\r\n[h2]Speed[\/h2]\r\nYour base walking speed is 30 feet.\r\n[h2]Claws[\/h2]\r\nYour claws are natural weapons, which you can use to make unarmed strikes. If you hit with them, you deal slashing damage equal to 1d4 + your Strength modifier, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.\r\n[h2]Hold Breath[\/h2]\r\nYou can hold your breath for up to 1 hour at a time. Tortles aren't natural swimmers, but they can remain underwater for some time before needing to come up for air.\r\n[h2]Natural Armor[\/h2]\r\nDue to your shell and the shape of your body, you are ill-suited to wearing armor. Your shell provides ample protection, however; it gives you a base AC of 17 (your Dexterity modifier doesn't affect this number). You gain no benefit from wearing armor, but if you are using a shield, you can apply the shield's bonus as normal.\r\n[h2]Shell Defense[\/h2]\r\nYou can withdraw into your shell as an action. Until you emerge, you gain a +4 bonus to AC, and you have advantage on Strength and Constitution saving throws. While in your shell, you are prone, your speed is 0 and can't increase, you have disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws, you can't take reactions, and the only action you can take is a bonus action to emerge from your shell.\r\n[h2]Survival Instinct[\/h2]\r\nYou gain proficiency in the Survival skill.","tabledata":"","tags":"race,tortle,charactercreation","isShared":"1","templateId":"23","blockId":"203647"}
