These diminutive beastmen reside together with the civilized races of Vana’diel. Most Qiqirns make their home in a city located in the heart of the Aht Urhgan Empire’s western half. They tend to have an easygoing and cheerful personality, but have difficulty speaking the common language due to their unusual vocal cords. Even so, it is not uncommon to hire a Qiqirn as a shop or guild assistant, thanks to their reliability and surprisingly quick wits. Some Qiqirn have even made use of their sharp sense of smell to become extremely wealthy in the production of fragrances. According to their oral tradition, the ancestors of the Qiqirns lived a nomadic life in the northern lands. Even today, remnants of the Qiqirn’s ancient lifestyle may be seen in their unique customs, such as their sheep-led wagon homes, their leather clothing, and their habit of carrying their valuables with them at all times.
== Standard Racial Traits ==
* Ability Score Racial Traits: Qiqirns are swift on their feet and eager to build relationship but are not aware of their surroundings very much. They gain +2 Dexterity,+2 Charisma, and -2 Wisdom.
* Size: Qiqirns are Medium creatures and have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
* Type: Qiqirns are Humanoid creatures with the qiqirn subtype.
* Base Speed: Qiqirns have a base speed of 30 feet.
* Languages: Qiqirns begin play speaking Common and Qiqirn. Qiqirns with high Intelligence scores can choose Aquan, Draconic, Kindred, Orc, Terran, and Yagudo.
=== Feat and Skill Racial Traits ===
* Curiosity: Qiqirns are naturally inquisitive about the world around them. They gain a +4 bonus on Diplomacy checks to gather information, and Knowledge (history) and Knowledge (local) become class skills for them. If they choose a class that has either of these Knowledge skills as class skills, they gain a +2 racial bonus on those skills instead.
* Silver Tongued: Unlike other races of Beastmen, Qiqirns are very talkative and eager to sell wares and set up trades with everyone and gain a +2 bonus on Diplomacy and Bluff checks. In addition, when they use Diplomacy to shift a creature’s attitude, they can do so up to three steps up rather than just two.
* Sociable: When Qiqirns talk, they can go on and on attempting to wiggle their way in a chance to earn more respect with a person or beastmen (regardless how annoying they might be). Qiqirns that try to change a creature’s attitude with a Diplomacy check and fail by 5 or more can try to influence the creature a second time even if 24 hours have not passed.
=== Movement Racial Traits ===
* Sprinter: Qiqirns gain a 10-foot racial bonus to their speed when using the charge, run, or withdraw actions.
=== Offense Racial Traits ===
* Claws: Qiqirns have rat-like nails and receive a pair of claws they can use as natural weapons. These claws are primary attacks that deal 1d4 points of damage.
=== Senses Racial Traits ===
* Scent: Qiqirns gain the scent ability.
== Alternate Racial Traits ==
The following alternate racial traits may be selected in place of one or more of the standard racial traits above. Consult your GM before selecting any of these new options.
===== Replaces Curiosity =====
* Hardy: Qiqirns living filthy places have gained a resistance against poisons and diseases. Qiqirns with this racial trait gain a +3 racial bonus on saving throws against poisons and diseases (both magical and non-magical).
*Scavenger: Qiqirns will look all over for all and any type of shinies to sell to anyone and gain a +2 racial bonus on Appraise and Perception checks to find hidden objects (including traps and secret doors), determine whether food is spoiled, or identify a potion by taste.
===== Replaces Sociable =====
*Rodent Empathy: Qiqirns have a knack for talking to and taking care of other rodents of the lesser non talking race and gain a +4 bonus on Handle Animal checks made to influence rodents.
=== Variant Qiqirn Heritages ===
Although many qiqirns follow the general model of the standard qiqirn, many more do not. Those of different lineages may evince dramatically different manifestations of their heritage, both in appearance and in ability. Here are 2 different potential heritages for qiqirn PCs. If you choose to use a specific bloodline instead of the general rules for creating a qiqirn, you should work with your GM to ensure that your character’s appearance reflects that bloodline.
* Alternate Skill Modifiers: While most qiqirns gain a +2 racial bonus on Bluff and Diplomacy checks, those of the variant heritages listed below gain a modifier to different skills.
== Table: Variant Qiqirn Heritages ==
Heritage 	Ability Modifiers 	Alternate Skill Modifier 	Description
Leaf-Eater	+2 DEX, +2 WIS, -2 STR	Perception and Sense Motive 	Have almost almost all of the remaining forests decimated by wars by the Garlean empire, the Leaf eaters have managed to cultivate a small area of land in the Last Forest. While the food grows the Leaf Eaters are a nomadic tribe that travels for their food and primarily eat vegetables and fruits and never meats. Where ever they go, they plant new vegetables and fruit as a way of thanking the land for its generosity so when they return, they may feast again and repeat.
Meat-Eater	+2 DEX, +2 INT, -2 WIS	Knowledge (Local) and Stealth	With the lack of food in Gyr Abania, these Qiqirn have set their eating patterns on flesh rather than foraging for food like their cousins of Qiqirn Leaf Eaters. Luring adventurers even their own kind in traps, the Meat eaters have been known to do anything to acquire their precise meat, including cannibalism. Eating meat has given them the glowing red eyes that you see now and has granted them with more aggressiveness and cleverness. Though they now seriously lack their charismatic counterparts.
