Rafujiin[edit]
Spirits of the winds of war that have assumed a corporeal, humanoid form.
Personality[edit]
Arrogant, violent and belligerent, rafujiins are born of the winds of war, with a deep connection with loud noise. They thirst for battle and physical confrontation, and much of their culture is centered around conflict. This makes them very confrontational in almost all aspects of life.
Physical Description[edit]
Built as strong humans with ogre-like features, such as pointed ears, small tusks and horns (one or two), which betray their supernatural nature. They have skin of monochrome tonality, with colors such as solid red, blue, green, yellow or orange. They grow wild hair and have eyes color-changing as the sky. Most notably they have drum-like shoulders which vibrates when they yell, helping them to sound louder. They also have additional canals in their throat that also help them produce louder noises from their powerful lungs.
Relations[edit]
Most contacts with other races and cultures are violent, a result of their nature. They are sometimes employed as mercenaries, but prideful, untrustworthy ones. They often despise those races they consider weak.
Alignment[edit]
Almost all rafujiins are chaotic, but other alignments are also present among them.
Lands[edit]
They live on windy mountains or plains, or travel by boat on the sea, often inhabiting islands.
Religion[edit]
War-minded rafujiins worship gods of conflict and violence, often in accordance with their alignment. All of them at least pay respect to the force of wind in some way.
Language[edit]
They know Auran as an innate language, and Common for the purpose of trading as mercenaries.
Names[edit]
They have boastful names, rich of epithets which signify power and strength.
Racial Traits[edit]

Instead of this effect they may, as a swift action, speak with a powerful voice for one round, making themselves heard to everyone for 400 feet, + 40 ft per HD, and gaining a circumstantial +4 to checks made by emitting voice or +2 to the DC of sound-based effects. After this they are weakened for one minute, receiving a -2 to to any check and DC of effects based on sound they use. Caster level is their HD.
