Wild Homebrew Jam Winner: Races of the Sky Era

Today we will take a look at JimiboyGM’s entry, Races of the Sky Era!

JimiboyGM’s entry is a fairly simple, but useful one, providing 4 new races for players and GMs to use, from Skyward Sword!

Here are JimiboyGM’s thoughts:

When I saw that the theme was “Ever Upwards” my mind immediately went to Skyward Sword, and since the rules already had a template for making custom races I thought I’d throw together the stats for the Kikwi, Mogma, Parella, and the Ancient Robot. I’m honestly suprised it hadn’t been done before!

I did have a little more trouble than expected though. Since these races had only appeared in one game, it was a bit of a struggle to give them abilities that fit them. I also struggled to fill the lore section with something that wasn’t a copy-paste of the zelda wiki, or personal headcanon stuff.

If I ever get a second pass at these, (which I may do when I figure out how to add to the wiki), I’d give them all a bit of a buff in the form of a fourth ability, and I’d get round to finishing the lore section.
