If your character is a mutant animal, how important would the option of having human looks as a mutation be?

Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close.
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
If I was the mutant on the end I'd be kind of pissed about the lack of penis, I think.
ReplyDeleteYes, there is that...
ReplyDeleteThe most useful feature would be opposable thumbs. It's debatable whether bipedalism would be an advantage for a quadruped critter, since the rolling gait of a human is really only useful for efficiently (but not quickly) traveling long distances, such as with persistence hunting.
ReplyDeleteHands and bipedalism are the big ones, for sure. In the rules I'm writing, full human hands are needed for using regular ranged weapons. Since I'm writing short rules, I'm debating whether even including human looks is worth it. If I'm playing an anthropomorphic animal, I want to look like a Dr. Moreau experiment, not just a hairy dude. But maybe people like the option to be a cat-girl that's more girl than cat?
