Lemurians Description: The people of this Culture had saffron-couloured skin. Their eyes have an epicanthic fold. They are geniuses of the age, having mastered the use of both science and magic. Culture: The Culture of the Lemurians is one of indolence and sorcery. They know little of cultivation or craft but they possess great knowledge of curious architecture. What tools they do make are of polished obsidian, jade or argillite. They create food out of the elements, growing them out of air. They also make cities out of green stone, although no one knows if this is done through super-science or sorcery. Names: No personal names of Lemurians are recorded. Names of gods and place-names tend to include an 'x' character, so it is possible that personal names are similar. Some examples are: (Male) Xarxeu. (Female) Xennia. Religion: The Lemurians of the East are devil-worshippers for the most part (at least they gain their sorcerous knowledge from demons), but their utmost deity is an ancient god named Xultha the Apeman, the First god, a rival to Poseidon. Cultural Features: * +2 Cultural bonus to Craft (Alchemy), Craft (Herbalism) and Knowledge (Arcana) checks. Lemurians are the inheritors of grand and wondrous science that is beyond the ken of any other civilisation of the Hyborian Age. Though the Lemurians still alive today remember little of how this advanced technology works, such knowledge nevertheless makes them the greatest scientists of the age. * +1 Cultural bonus to any Fortitude saving throws against poisons except black lotus blossom (which they constantly fail) and black lotus juice (which they receive a +4 bonus against). * -2 Cultural penalty to any Craft Skill other than alchemy or herbalism. The Lemurians know little of such matters. Background Skills: Knowledge (Local: The City they inhabit), Craft (Alchemy), Craft (Herbalism), Knowledge (Arcana) and Perform (Ritual). Favoured Class: Noble (probably best Courtier as it less combatant, or both) or Scholar. Prohibited Class: Barbarian, Borderer, Nomad and Pirate. Automatic Languages: Ancient Lemurian. Bonus Languages: None usable today. . |
