Description

Halfling barbarian 10

During Combat: The barbarian uses Climb and Acrobatics to rain death upon enemies from above. She snipes from cover or concealment to begin her attack, but after that is concerned solely with maximizing the intensity of her deadly barrage. She activates her rolling dodge to evade enemy counterfire.

Base Statistics: When not raging, the barbarian’s statistics are AC 23, touch 16, flat-footed 18; hp 100; Fort +11, Will +6; no bonus vs. spells and spell-like or supernatural abilities; Immune —; Melee mwk scimitar +13/+8 (1d4+1/18–20); Ranged +1 composite longbow +15/+15/+10 (1d6+2/19–20/×3) or +1 composite longbow +17/+12 (1d6+2/19–20/×3); Str 12, Con 14; CMB +10; Skills Climb +18, Swim +5.

Rare tribes of halfling cannibals stalk deep jungles in search of sentient prey.

Lanani Shabu: When newcomers objecting to his matriarchal tribe’s cannibalistic ways wiped out his kin, Lanani had no choice but to ritualistically take on new leadership—and a new gender. Now "Mother Lanani" hunts the jungle, punishing humans and recruiting halflings to her new tribe.

Combat Encounters: Lanani can stalk quarry for days, slowly weakening those she is not able to knock out with her poison. Other times, she heads a hunting band.

Roleplaying Suggestions: Lanani rarely interacts with the outside world, but in desperate times she ventures into civilization to lure prey closer to her tribe.
