A powerful mage called Alaki summoned them to the Material Plane to help fight the dragons. After the gate to a small demiplane (called ‘Skin’) where the animalskin livedwas opened, they were the first to help protect the humanoid races. After that they moved mainly to an island in the middle of the ocean with the other animalskins. Pantherskin are about 7 feet tall and resemble panthers. The only resemblance to humanoids they have are their upright stance and their humanoid hands. Pantherskin speak Aquan, Celestial, Common, Terran and a language of their own creation, called Alak. Alak is a smidgen language between Aquan, Celestial and Terran. It uses the Draconic alphabet. Those who can speak one of those languages can try to understand with a successful Listen or Decipher Script check (DC 15). Those who can speak two of the three languages can attempt to understand it with a Listen or Decipher check with DC 10. Those who can speak all three languages can understand with a DC of 5. Alak is available as a language that anyone can spend skill points on if they can speak Aquan, Celestial or Terran. Combat Pantherskin rarely fight in large numbers, preferring to surprise their foes one by one. Pounce: If a pantherskin leaps upon a foe during the first round of combat, it can make a full attack even if if it has already taken a move action. Skills: Pantherskin recieve a +4 racial bonus to Hide checks and a +8 racial bonus to Balance and Move Silently checks. *In areas of tall grass or heavy undergrowth, the Hide bonus improves to +10. Pantherskin Society Pantherskin live in peace, for the most part, with the other animalskin races. Though they quarrel with many other races, they still cooperate, though they are willing to shed a little blood to have what they want. However, there are many offshoots from the pantherskin society who gather to take revenge on the whole demiplane of Skin and its residents. Such pantherskin are chaotic evil, not chaotic good, and are outcasts from the pantherskin's great city, Ki-Lamakal. Pantherskin Characters: A pantherskin's favored class is ranger, though many also become barbarians, druids, rogues or sorcerers. Pantherskin leaders are often ranger/rogues or ranger/sorcerers. Pantherskin clerics always worship their summoner, and now demigod, Alaki, and may choose any two of the following domains: Animal, Earth, Magic, Knowledge and Plant. A pantherskin PC's effective character level (ECL) is equal to its class level +5. Thus, a 1st-level pantherskin ranger has an ECL of 5 and is the equivalent of a 6th-level character.
