Beast | Overview

Difficulty
Moderate
6/10
Beasts are raw instinct given form, aggressive tempo, powerful clashes, and brutal follow-through.
They’re straightforward to *use*, but harder to *master* because you’ll constantly be deciding:
“Do I commit to the hunt… or do I conserve stamina for the long fight?”
What Are Beasts?
Beasts were among the earliest living forces of Telaros, primal, territorial, and untamed.
Their bodies naturally channel Reiatsu through muscle and bone, making them terrifying in close range.
Some remain fully animal, others walk in a human-like form, and many live between both as a mask and a weapon.
Strengths
- Strong clash identity (Strength vs Strength “win condition” style)
- Momentum tools (chase, punish, pack tactics)
- Natural intimidation / control of space through presence
- Great for: brawlers, hunters, ambushers, “alpha” characters, protectors
Weaknesses
- Stamina pressure is real (Beasts love to go hard early)
- If you whiff your big push, you can get out-tempo’d
- Social / political play depends heavily on *your* character’s style, not the race itself
Playing As
Beasts aren’t bound to a single “nation” or rigid structure.
You can be a noble guardian, a lone predator, a mercenary, or a myth in the woods.
Your restrictions usually come from your Type, Subrace, and whatever faction you choose to align with.

Beast | Traits

Signature Themes
- Instinct: you read the fight like an animal reads a storm
- Dominance: your wins feel “inevitable” when you control tempo
- Form: your “true shape” is a personal choice (wolf, hawk, serpent, lion, etc.)
Talent Highlights
Common Beast vibes your tree supports:
- Survival of the Fittest: win clashes harder
- Apex Roar: fear/slow in your zone
- Pack Hunter: flanking synergy
- Blood in the Water: reward for meaningful damage
- Feral Sense: “I smell you” energy (tracking / awareness)
Build Hooks
- “The Guardian”: protective brute, endurance focus, punishes anyone who harms allies
- “The Stalker”: perception + speed, picks a target and never lets them breathe
- “The Pack”: duo/trio synergy, flanking bonuses, coordinated strikes

Beast | Notes

RP Prompts
- What does your Beast “smell” like in Reiatsu?
- Do you see humans as kin, prey, or rivals?
- What is your “line” that makes you lose the civilized mask?
DM / Mod Notes
Beasts shine when they’re allowed to pressure and force decisions.
Give them terrain, scent, distance, weather, and “hunt logic” to play with.

Beast | Humanization Ritual

Ritual Rules
If at any point you wish to perform the Humanization ritual to push your human form even further than 90%:
- You must first follow a path that allows such.
- Talk with a DM/Moderator that you want to perform the ritual.
- Once performed, there is no going back.
- You will be immortal for 1 thread (and only 1 thread).
- Once that thread concludes, your character will die.

NOTE:
Immortality does not mean impervious. You can still take damage, and even pass out if you run out of stamina.
You just will not die if your health reaches 0.
