=== Physical description ===
The Araxi are creatures of chaos with black skin, red eyes and a protruding face and sharp teeth and with sharp claws. They are usually smaller than humans but often stronger and more agile.

=== Clothing, arms and armor ===
Araxi wear whatever they can find that helps in combat - leather armor being the most common.

=== Social structure ===
A strong hierarchy and social order characterizes the Arax society. Families are tightly bound with the father being the undisputed head.

=== Occupations ===
Araxi are warriors at heart. Most are also hunters. Females are keeping the den in order.

=== Special abilities ===
The Araxi are poison resistant and cannot be affected by any sleep-inducing magick.

Being magical creatures of chaos, the Araxi have a 50% chance (a 4 or more on a D6) of possessing chaotic features. Roll for the chaotic feature(s) on the table below. Roll first a D6 for the chaotic feature category, and then a D6 for the specific feature within that category:
