  • +2 Dexterity, +2 Charisma, -2 Constitution: Quetzl are much more flexible than other races, but due to their appearance and their serpent nature they don’t seem to make a lot of friends amongst the humanoids. (0 RP)
  • Medium: Quetzl are considered medium creatures. (0 RP)

  • Limbless: Quetzl have no legs, and therefore cannot be tripped. (-2 RP)
