About Goat-folk: A Series of Randomizations

Race type Mortal 1st Level PC age  12+2d10 years. Lifespan 50+2d12 years. Height - 5’8”+2d6” Weight 130 + 6d10 lbs

What follows are a series of randomizers in the event that a more official one will not exist in the official Dolmenwood books. As one might find surprising, I find the Goat-folk of Dolmenwood to be endearing and interesting to me. They are, effectively, one of the common villainous forces of the setting but also essentially the same as any generic Brackenwolder, just a bit more hirsute and capricious. None of this is official, but it feels of a type. I’d probably say that Brackenwold Goat-folk use mostly Human Names/Surnames, while High Wold/High-Hankle families would use the sort of nonsense placed below. This is done up in the style of the recent releases which can be found on the Necrotic Gnome Patreon, which provide such details for Moss Dwarfs, Elfs, Grimalkin, Woodgrue, and Humanity.
