The Tabaxi
Reaching from far off lands, the wandering feline
humanoids called the Tabaxi roam the lands with
their cat-like curiosity, driven to seek out enticing
artifacts, collect lore and unearth unbelievable tales.
Tabaxi are natural born travelers, not keen on staying
in one place - they are drawn to travel to exciting new
lands, gaze upon wondrous sights, twitch an ear to
foriegn fables and to lay their paws upon otherworldly
trinkets.
Creatures of Curiosity
Most Tabaxi are content to live their lives in their far
away homelands, within their small intimate clans.
They keep to themselves, and live a day to day life of
hunting for food, crafting goods and rarely venturing
out of their tiny domains.
But not all Tabaxi are satisfied being in the confines
of small sleepy or restrictive communities. The Cat
Lord - the divine figure responsible for creating the
Tabaxi, blesses all of their children with a unique
feline trait. If that trait happens to be a cat's curiosity,
they are compelled to travel far and wide, collecting
stories, artifacts and lore. Any of those who return
home after their glorious jaunt around the world come
back to their clans and homelands; spending their
elder days sharing the news of the outside world.
From this, the Tabaxi are enlightened about the
greater world around them, despite their isolation, the
Tabaxi are never ignorant of the outside world.
Lore as Currency
Tabaxi find wealth in the knowledge they accumulate,
and see coins and gems as mere utility. A motherlode
of gold, while useful in buying lodging or food garners
nothing compared to the excitement of dusty tomes
with a world of knowledge inscribed within.
In the eyes of the Tabaxi, wealth is like packing
rations for a trip, important to survive in the world,
but not the end all be all when it is lost. Instead,
Tabaxi have a thirst for new experiences and stories,
willing to part ways with their wealth to tease out local
legends within a tavern - their ears perking up at the
whispers of local juicy gossip.

By Jamie Manson
Although material wealth holds little attraction for
the Tabaxi, they have an insatiable desire to find and
procure ancient relics, magical items, and other rare
trinkets. Aside from the power such items might
confer, a Tabaxi takes great joy in unraveling the
stories behind their creation and the history of their
use.
Passing Passions
Tabaxi breaking out to a life of adventuring and
exploration have insatiable wanderlust. Bouncing
from tavern to temple for the slightest whiff of a
rumor, which once tasted - will obsess over with a
burning passion. Once the desire has been met, it is
quickly quenched, only to be replaced by another.
This object fascination only lasts as long as its secrets
are withheld.
A Tabaxi bard may pour over songs and poems of
adoration and mysteriousness of a local tale, but will
immediately drop all attention on to something else
one the luster of the tale has faded. A Tabaxi Rogue
may spend weeks obsessing over a precious heirloom
outside of their grasp, going through elaborate plans
to illicitly acquire it, but once held within their paws,
will simply pawn it off for lodging at the next tavern of
their future escapade.
Colorful Vagabonds
Curiosity drives most of the Tabaxi found outside
their homeland, but not all of them become
adventurers. Tabaxi who seek a safer path to satisfy
their obsessions become wandering tinkers and
minstrels.
These Tabaxi work in small troupes, usually
consisting of an elder, more experienced Tabaxi who
guides up to four young ones learning their way in the
world. They travel in small, colorful wagons, moving
from settlement to settlement. When they arrive, they
set up a small stage in a public square where they
sing, play instruments, tell stories, and offer exotic
goods in trade for items that spark their interest.
Tabaxi reluctantly accept gold, but they much prefer
interesting objects or pieces of lore as payment.
These wanderers keep to civilized realms, preferring
to bargain instead of pursuing more dangerous
 Subraces of the Tabaxi
methods of satiating their curiosity. However, they
aren’t above a little discreet theft to get their claws on
a particularly interesting item when an owner refuses
to sell or trade for it.
The Center of Attention
Young adventuring tabaxi have two very distinct
states of social being: First - an insatiable desire of
capturing any amiable gaze. And secondly, the
complete opposite - An avoidance of everyone and
everything that could possibly interact with them.
Using bursts of energy during their lust for
attention commonly proceeds with the desire of rest,
relaxation and a retraction from social interactions.
This way, Tabaxi can recharge themselves for their
next social endeavor, but also provides a window to
retrospectively reflect on their past interactions. This
ebb and flow of excitability allows Tabaxi to see all
social interactions as important and meaningful, as a
way of making themselves memorable to the people
they meet.
Lastly, when a Tabaxi seeks out to be alone, Their
appreciation of solitude is outmatched only by their
contempt of those who disrupt it.
Society & Culture
Tabaxi made the lush jungles of Chult their home
after a tormented past, being victims of a historically
notable blackmarket slave trade that once plagued the
western isles of the sword coast. After being brought
to Faerûn, many escaped captivity using the dense
vegetation of Chult to evade capture. ‘Loose’ Tabaxi
minstrels became a common sight around Port
Nyanzaru, whereas hunters roamed and settled in
small clans around the entire peninsula.
Despite the troubled origins of the Tabaxi, they
have had very few enemies throughout history. Most
races are affable towards them, and only the most
degenerate and violent would ever consider an attack
against them.
The darker markets will still rarely put a bounty on
the pelts of the tabaxi, reaching 50 to 1000gp
depending on the rarity of the Tabaxi’s patterning.
Hishna shapers would use the claws and skins to
2
Design Version 1.2
By Jamie Manson
enhance their strength and vigor, although this
practice has since been effectively retired as the
number of Tabaxi integrated within towns and cities
has increased their presence within Faerûn.
Tabaxi now consider themselves to originate from
the jungles of Chult within the mystical island
continent of Maztica, far west off the Sword Coast.
The content is mostly warm and humid, containing
heavy jungles, sprawling savannahs and vast deserts.
These hot and comfortable environments are all
preferred by the Tabaxi.
Clan Beginnings
The majority of Tabaxi are content in living isolated
lives away from the hustle and bustle of large,
obnoxious industrious civilizations, instead preferring
the close-knit kinship of a few families they can safely
rely on.
These intimate clan settlements don’t tread much
over a few tens of inhabitants, and villages tend to not
get much larger than a hundred Tabaxi. Most clan
settlements in Tabaxi territory are small, hidden, and
surprisingly plentiful in the continent - if you can find
them of course.
The Tabaxi are strong believers of family traditions,
while they vary wildly from clan to clan, there is a
common grain that runs through the blood of most
clans. Clans typically are evenly split between males
and females, and consist of several ‘hunts’, small
groups made up of 2 to 8 individuals, quite literally
for hunting - when required - but also to patrol the
area around the clan’s settlement.
Clans are typically led by elders. In some rare cases,
leaders in some of the further outreaches of Chult’s
jungles are aided by shamans. Clans tend to avoid
each other and not engage in trade, Tabaxi tribes
consider trade to be demeaning, but in rare instances
will use third party tabaxi agents to trade for them,
like minstrels and wandering troupes.
The Calling Of the Cat Lord
Tabaxi who head out into the world are very
commonly incited by the deity of their kind - the Cat
Lord. While not every adventuring Tabaxi is the result
 Subraces of the Tabaxi
of this, it is certainly common enough to assume all
who travel to be influenced by them.
This phenomenon is most likely to happen to
Tabaxi who are coming of age, however it is not
exclusive, it can hit Tabaxi of any age after they
become an adult - some may only find that spark to
wander much later in life.
Those that travel the far reaches of the world,
seeking knowledge, culture, wisdom and artifacts may
find themselves after much time, many in their later
years, yearning to return home. It is common for
those that return to become a leader, elder or other
form of teaching role, imparting their wealth of
experiences to prevent villages from becoming insular
or fearful of the outside.
Colorful Homelands
Tabaxi have an appreciation of color and fashion in
their life, with a tendency towards strong and bold
hues. Adventuring Tabaxi commonly attach
themselves to a favorite color scheme in which to
dress themselves. Their keen eye for fashion and
appearance helps support their desire to catch the
eyes of others. When they finally settle down and
return home, their desire to show strong colors
continues through to that life, transitioning from their
clothing to their home.
It is difficult for an outsider to not notice the
presence of a Tabaxi house, their abodes are
commonly draped with colorful linen used for shade.
The flying of color tends to be more prominent in
places where it’s common for Tabaxi to go out and
return after their adventuring days. Smaller clans may
seem drab in comparison as those who leave may not
return to the same place to display their colors.
Tribal Traditions
Traditions are common among Tabaxi clans, but are
very localized. Some may arrange their marriages,
others may send their young out into the wild as a
coming-of-age ritual. These traditional values are
diverse from clan to clan, from both simple and
benign, to bombastic and dogmatic.
Tabaxi who explore outside of their realms, acquire
quirks and traditions from places they have visited,
3
Design Version 1.2
By Jamie Manson
and if they are enamored enough by it, they may
emulate it. On their return, it is possible for them to
assimilate into the tribe, who may adopt it if they are
receptive to it - especially if they take up a leadership
or other prestigious role.
Larger Tabaxi villages are less likely to have formed
more dogmatic traditions. They are also more likely to
welcome in other races, although this is not too
common, as these outsiders have to adopt the quirks
of the tribe.
Religion
Tabaxi are not typically religious, having a rather
fleeting relationship with their deity - the Cat Lord.
Other smaller clans within Maztica pay their respects
to the lesser deities of Tezca, Nula, and even more
rarely, Azul. A small number of even more isolated
clans within this owe their allegiance to the Jaguar
Lord - a deity with wilder and more hostile origins
than that of the Cat Lord.
The Cat Lord
Few Tabaxi in the current era of Faerun believe in
a higher power. Those that do put their faith into
the Cat Lord, a fickle and tricky entity who
bestows each tabaxi with a specific feline trait and
was believed to wander the world, watching over
them.
Clerics of the Cat Lord are rare and those that
do practice it typically access the Trickery
Domain.
Tabaxi who have left their smaller clans are told by
their elders about the Cat Lord and call for their
blessing before sending them out into the rest of the
non-feline inhabited world.
Clawed Fighters
Tabaxi are instinctual hunters by their very nature,
and it is only natural that this makes them adept at
combat. Their speed and stealth combined with their
regional camouflage mean that the Tabaxi are
particularly skilled at surprise attacks and in some
cases have even been known to disguise their scent
with local herbs.
 Subraces of the Tabaxi

Due to their knowledge of hunting, intelligence and

sense of smell, it is practically impossible to trap a
tabaxi.
When it comes to equipping themselves for combat,
Tabaxi favor bolas, slings, and javelins. Tabaxi are just
as likely to use weapons as they are to use their claws
and teeth in battle.
Language
The Tabaxi language was an ancient form of the Payit
language, named after its land of origin within
Maztica. Those who spoke modern Payit and knew
what to listen for could usually understand about half
of the Tabaxi words they heard.

 Subraces of the Tabaxi
Tabaxi Traits
Your Tabaxi character has the following racial traits.
Ability Score Increase: Your Charisma score
increases by 1.
Age: Tabaxi have lifespans similar to that of
humans.
Alignment: Tabaxi tend towards chaotic
alignments, as they let impulse and fancy guide their
decisions. They are rarely evil, with most of them
driven by curiosity rather than greed or other dark
impulses.
Size: Tabaxi are between 3 to 7 feet tall with most
sub-races being taller on average than most humans.
They are also relatively slender.
Feline Agility: Your keen reflexes and agility
allows you to move with a burst of speed. On your
turn you can choose to move with double your
movement speed until the end of that turn. You
cannot use this trait again until you have spent a
round moving 0 feet.
Languages: You can speak, read, and write
Common and one other language of your choice.
Subrace. There are multiple subraces within the
Tabaxi, each with their own unique traits
Tabaxi Subraces
The Tabaxi are a warm and affable race - despite their
tendency for isolation - and have many distinct
subraces. In general, they are taller than most humans
aside from the curiously smaller Felis.
Tabaxi are charismatic and curious in their essence,
whether through the ferocity of the Tigri, the
overwhelming charm of the Keo or the off-guard
cuteness of the Felis; they are able to enjoy the
company of many other races with ease.
Other subraces include the isolated Leuk-Leuk
found in remote rocky tundras, the incredibly fast and
slender Jubata, known to be the fastest runners of all
races, the Unci prowls the most treacherous snow
capped mountains and their close relatives the Onka
silently stalk within their dense forest and jungle
habitats, passing by silently unbeknownst to the
travelers who walk through them.

Design Version 1.2
By Jamie Manson
Keo
Lion Tabaxi
The Keo are natural born leaders, only a few moments
upon meeting one you will find that their charm is as
strong as their appearance. Keo’s have bold
personalities, but always provide a sense of warmth
and humbleness when talking to anyone and
everything. From this it is not hard to see why Keos
command a lot of respect and others find it easy to
rally around them.
From this, it is easy to see Keos finding themselves
within commanding and leadership roles throughout
Tabaxi - and often other - villages. However, this
affinity towards leadership roles can have a negative
effect, a Keo cannot tolerate another leader, Keo or
otherwise, making uninformed or flawed decisions -
rarely biting their tongue when they know they can
provide a better solution. Male Keo prefer to take
leadership roles single handedly and are good at small
scale strategy, providing to be a strong and valuable
figurehead. Female Keos instead like to work in teams
of two or more other females, when in a position of
responsibility, working as a counsel, who are able to
plan on a much grander scale more efficiently than
their male counterparts.
Appearance. The Keos are immediately striking in
their looks, a muscular, deep-chested Tabaxi with a
short, rounded head, a reduced neck and round ears.
The fur in Keo varies in color from light buff to silvery
gray, yellowish red and dark brown. The colors of the
underparts are generally lighter. Males have a
prominent mane that grows downwards and
backwards covering most of the head, neck, shoulders,
and chest. The mane is typically brownish and tinged
with yellow, rust and black hairs. The tail of all Keo
ends in a dark, hairy tuft.
Additional Ability Score Increase: Your
Charisma score increases again by 1 and your Strength
score increases by 1.
Size. Keo average at just over 6 feet tall. Your size
is medium.
Speed: Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Cat’s Claws: Attacking with your claws do 1d4 +
your Strength modifier of slashing damage. You also
have a climbing speed of 20ft.
 Subraces of the Tabaxi
Lion’s Talent: You have proficiency in Persuasion.
Lions Roar: You let out bellowing roar, all target
creatures of your choice within a 15 foot radius around
you who can hear you must make a Wisdom saving
throw with a DC of 10 + your Intimidation skill
modifier, becoming frightened by you on a failure for
1 turn, and having no effect on a success. You cannot
use this feature again until after a short or long rest.
Tigri
Tiger Tabaxi
The Tigri are the strongest and most athletic of the
Tabaxi, commonly becoming military and protectors
of tribes, while not necessarily commanders or
leaders, they are formidable at short term tactics and
combat. Their appearance makes them intimidating,
and their patterned fur helps them blend into
treelines and deep grasses, which they regularly use to
get an advantage on foes.
Their attitudes tend to be stoic and reserved, when
provoked they fold their arms and leave actual hostile
actions as a last resort, they understand their strength
and never wish to harm others using violence as a last
resort, which has become a common saying with the
tabaxi culture “A Tigri’s wrath is never seen, but
always deserved.”
Appearance. Tigris are tall and quite slender,
however, their shoulders and chest slowly bow out
and become wide and thick, giving them a top heavy
appearance and an unnatural strength to compliment
their speed.
Tigris have orange fur with black stripes, and a
white belly. The black stripes usually extend to the
white underside. These stripes give tigris a natural
advantage to stalking, keeping them camouflaged
while hunting. No two Tigris have the same pattern of
stripes.
Rarely, Tigris can have different colors other than
orange. There are white Tigris that have white fur with
black stripes, or in even rarer cases - have pure white
fur.
Additional Ability Score Increase: Your
Strength score increases by 2.

Size. Tigri are some of the largest known Tabaxi,
ranging on average at around 7 feet tall. Your size is
medium.
Speed: Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Tiger’s Claws: Attacking with your claws do 1d6 +
your Strength modifier of slashing damage. You also
have a climbing speed of 20ft.
Pounce: When you move at least 10ft. towards a
target of size large or smaller and make a claw attack,
you can push them to the ground using that force. If
the attack hits - you attempt to jump on and pull the
target to the ground, the target must make a Strength

modifier and an additional +1 for every extra 10ft.
moved towards the target. On a failure, the target
becomes prone; on a success the creature remains
standing.
Bite Down: As a bonus action you can make an
attack roll to use your strong jaws (which you are
proficient with) to bite down on a target, doing 1d4 +
your Strength modifier of piercing damage on a hit.
On a successful hit you can freely attempt to grapple
the target if you decide to. If the target is prone, then
they suffer from disadvantage on the grapple
contestion roll.
Leuk-Leuk
Lynx Tabaxi
Leuk-Leuks are seen as the most isolated of the
Tabaxi subraces, giving that impression as they are
talented in survival in harsh environments - creating
camouflaged housing and structures as well as also
having a fur pattern that helps blend themselves into
their natural environment.
The Leuks are docile, but wary of strangers coming
into their lands, opting to stay hidden and out of sight,
waiting to see if trespassers encroach further into
their lands, gauging to see if their intentions are
hostile - and if the are - the Leuk wait for the perfect
moment to ambush them unawares.
To other tabaxi, Leuks are quiet and reserved, and
relatively more tribal in nature, often solitary
wanderers. Villages consisting of the Leuk tend to be
extremely small, with tribes only consisting of a
 Subraces of the Tabaxi
handful of families and a few lone vagabonds who
pass through.
Appearance. Leuks have a short tail,
characteristic tufts of black hair on the tips of their
ears, large, padded paws for walking on snow and
long whiskers on the face. Under their neck they have
a ruff which has black bars resembling a bow tie.
Body color varies from medium brown to goldish to
beige-white, and is occasionally marked with dark
brown spots, especially on the limbs. Leuks have
white fur on their chests, bellies and on the insides of
their legs, fur which is an extension of the chest and
belly fur. The Leuks coloring, fur length and paw size
vary according to the climate in their range.
Additional Ability Score Increase: Your
Constitution score increases by 1. And your Wisdom
score increases by 1
Size. Leuks stand at just under 6 feet tall. Your size
is medium.
Speed: Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Claws: Attacking with your claws do 1d4 + your
Strength modifier of slashing damage.
Lynx’s Talent: You have proficiency in the
Survival and Nature skill.
Darkvision: You have a cat's keen senses,
especially in the dark. You can see in dim light within
60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in the
darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern
color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Survival Shelter: You have a natural ability
creating hidden shelters in natural terrain -
constructing one using nearby loose natural objects to
blend it seamlessly into the environment. A survival
shelter can contain any sized creature up to large size,
taking 15 minutes to construct and giving +10 to
stealth checks to whomever is inside.
Jubata
Cheetah Tabaxi
The Jubata are known for their deft speed and grace,
they are the fastest, nimble and slender of the Tabaxi
races. Their talents have proved them useful as
messengers and couriers within their clans, and also
any other settlement outside of tabaxi lands.
7
Design Version 1.2
By Jamie Manson
Despite their affinity for speed, the Jubata are calm
and cheerful at rest and have expressive personalities,
being perky and full of vigor. They contain a lot of
energy, letting it out in bursts like being quick to flee
in the presence of danger, or when comfortable, they
are colorful and relish in spending that effort for
attention.
Appearance. The Jubata has a yellowish tan or
rufous to grayish white skin, that is covered with
nearly 2,000 solid black spots. Their bellies are
typically completely white, they have a slender body,
small rounded heads, black tear-like streaks on the
face, long thin legs and a long spotted tail.
Size. Your size is medium.
Speed: Your base walking speed is 35 feet.
Additional Ability Score Increase. Your
Dexterity score increases by 2.
Claws: Attacking with your claws do 1d4 + your
Strength modifier of slashing damage.
Flat Out: From a standstill, and moving in a
straight line, you can achieve your fastest speed easily.
You can double your Feline Agility movement ability
as long as you travel in a straight line across relatively
flat terrain or soft inclines. If you have to change your
direction you lose any leftover movement from this
ability. You cannot use this ability until you can also
use feline agility again.
Onka
Black Panther Tabaxi
The shadowy Onka are a rare subset of the Tabaxi, or
so it is perceived. They are unseen and unknown,
lurking in the shadows ready to pounce. Their
usefulness in the clan and to outsiders is apparent, as
they themselves are not. Being the helpful underhand
to the Tabaxi.
Despite the rumors, they are indeed a very rare
breed, using their elusiveness to roam from tribe to
settlement helping leaders with issues that require a
little nuance or more subtlety. They hold themselves
to a high standard and set of guiding principles in
their work, leaving very little room to bend their rules.
They may be lone-creatures, but they are warm in
conversation, being polite but curt, keeping any
company with others at arm's length when possible.
 Subraces of the Tabaxi
The Onka prefer to be quiet and observe from a
distance, to better understand their mark, whether to
chat to a patron in the warmth of a tavern or to trail a
suspect outside in the comfort of a darkened forest.
Appearance. The Onka tends to be dark brown to
black in color, and unlike their other tabaxi brethren,
have no spots on their long body or tail. Instead they
have a shiny coat of dark fur. Onka have small heads
with strong jaws and emerald green eyes.
Size. Your size is medium.
Speed: 30 feet is your base walking speed.
Additional Ability Score Increase. Your
Dexterity score increases by 1.
Cat’s Claws: Attacking with your claws do 1d4 +
your Strength modifier of slashing damage. You also
have a climbing speed of 20ft.
Panther’s Talent: You have proficiency in the
Stealth skill.
Darkvision: You have a cat’s keen senses,
especially in the dark. You can see in dim light within
60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in the
darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern
color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Attack from Above: Using a height advantage, if
you jump onto a target that is located under you using
only your claws, you can make an attack roll and add
an additional +1d8 if the attack hits and the target
makes a Strength or Dexterity saving throw equal or
greater to 8 + your Proficiency or be knocked prone.
You must be no lower than 10ft. above them when you
attack that target.
Lone Hunter: When isolated from your allies and
friendly creatures within a 60ft. radius of you, you
gain +5 bonus to your Stealth checks.
Uncee
Snow Leopard Tabaxi
The Uncee are mountain wanderers and destined
loners, much like monks and those trained in magic.
While their land is cold and they have adapted to it, it
is their deftness over rocky terrain that catches naive
hunters off guard.
Uncee are rare and revered by the Tabaxi, they
spend a lot of the time isolated to meditate and live in
some of the most inaccessible places in the lands.
8
Design Version 1.2
By Jamie Manson
In times of need Uncee do come down, to spread
knowledge and advice of what they have learned, to
bestow new wisdom around magics and lore from
their realms.
Appearance. The Uncee show several adaptations
for living in a cold, mountainous environment. Their
small rounded ears help to minimize heat loss and
their broad paws do well to distribute the body weight
for walking on snow, with fur on the undersides to
increase the grip on steep and unstable surfaces. Its
long and flexible tail helps to maintain balance in the
rocky terrain. The tail is thickly covered with fur,
which allows the Uncee to use it like a blanket to
protect its face when asleep
The Uncee’s fur is whitish to gray with black spots
on head and neck, but larger rosettes on the back,
flanks and bushy tail. Their belly is whitish and their
eyes are pale green or gray in color. They have a short
muzzle, a domed forehead and the fur is undeniably
thick.
Size. Uncee have a stocky body, are short-legged
and slightly smaller than the other Tabaxi standing at
around 5 - 6 ft. Your size is medium.
Speed: 30 feet is your base walking speed.
Additional Ability Score Increase. Your
Intelligence score increases by 1. And your
Constitution by 1.
Cat’s Claws: Attacking with your claws do 1d4 +
your Strength modifier of slashing damage. You also
have a climbing speed of 20ft.
Leopard’s Talent: You have proficiency in the
Nature skill.
Darkvision: You have a cat’s keen senses,
especially in the dark. You can see in dim light within
60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in the
darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern
color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Snow Paws: Your large padded paws give you an
advantage when moving over ice, deep snow and
rocky terrain able to move over this difficult terrain
using your regular movement speed. You also have an
advantage when climbing on rough rocky surfaces and
do not suffer any disadvantage from icy and frozen
surfaces.
 Subraces of the Tabaxi
Frosted Fur: Your fur has a natural touch of frost
to it, making you resistant to cold damage. However,
this ability is removed once you take fire damage of
any kind. You regain this ability again after a long
rest.
Felis
House-Cat Tabaxi
The Felis Tabaxi are first, notably smaller than other
subraces. Second, they are also the most varied when
it comes to temperaments and physical differences,
colors and patterns are, as well as minute physical
differences. Face, ears, fur length and texture, facial
structure and tail length can vary drastically from one
Felis to another.
They are also the smallest of their kind, are almost as
fast and even more nimble. Their size and springiness
makes them especially suited for weaving through
dense crowds and displaying unbelievable feats of
acrobatics.

Word Selection
Next, you want to roll a d20 for each of the word
tables you picked before; 13 on Movement noun, 5 on
Mood adjective and 18 on Random noun. When you
roll the die, on the word table, look for the
corresponding noun, adjective or verb for that result.
This will give you the results in the example - a noun:
Soldier, an adjective: Joyous and finally another
noun: Man/Woman (if the character is male in this
case, we may want to favour ‘Man’ but if you want
pure randomness: use a coin flip to decide the
outcome).
Prepositions
Lastly roll a [Preposition] using the preposition
table below, in our current example - a roll of 73 will
give you “Off the”.
d100 Preposition d100 Preposition
Finally you can assemble the whole name into the
final form, ending up with the Tabaxi name:
“Soldier off the Joyousman”
Final Considerations
It is up to you to determine the nickname of the
character, this could be “Soldier” or “Joy” in the
example above. Other finalizations that you may want
to consider is making things pluralize correctly, ie.
“Soldiers” vs. “Soldier” or “man” vs “men”, other
corrections could also mean changing words from
“-ing” to “-ed” and you should do so if you feel like it
helps make the name sound more pleasing. E.g.
Perhaps the character is named after an elite group
of Tabaxi soldiers in their tribe called the
“Joyousmen” leading the name to be changed to:

1-2 Of 3-4 Or “Soldiers of The Joyousmen”
