Racoun

'I'm the trash man' - Donnie DeVitrasj

## About

A curious but reclusive species, not much is known about the Racoun. Although not fey beings themselves, their culture and known history is closely intertwined, with Racoun often settling near places that bridge the gap between the Material Plane and the Feywild. Many have speculated just where the Racoun have come into being. The two prominent theories being that they are an experiment by an Archfey, or simply a fey's pet that had evolved through the powerful magicks of the Feywild. Racoun tend to live in secluded clans within the Feywild and densely forrested areas such as the continent of Ratohn and the Pilferwoods.

## Physical description

Although seen in alternating numbers, there have been some accounts of what they look like. Often described as short as a halfling and twice as plump, it seems most Racoun are around 3ft tall. Not many have been seen but it appears that their fur is similar in colour as the raccoons of the Material Plane, though there are rumors of spotting Racoun with brown, white, red, and golden fur, with any number of patterning.

Because of their reclusive nature not much is known about the Racoun's true names, which are believed by many to be their Feywild name and Sylvan in nature. However, from the brief encounters with them, it seems they tend to adopt the names of the people around them, often taking on an elvish or gnomish sounding names.

Racoun are sometimes known to be nomadic and don't hesitate to visit places where different races live, although prefer to not let people know they are there unless they really need to. This differs strongly per Racoun individual.
