Despite their bestial appearance and utter lack of social skills, thokolas are honorable and proud warriors, living their lives in a secluded Hinterlands realm. They have only recently become known to the planar community, when a clueless pack wandered into Sigil and offered bodyguard & mercenary services. The thokola society follows a number of complex customs and taboos, but doesn’t really expect foreigners to acknowledge these. However, the thokolas who venture onto the planes are surprisingly adaptable, and usually willing to learn about the bigger picture. Their humanoid shaped bodies are covered with a brown, almost-furry skin, and their jutting jaws do a poor job of hiding their misshapen teeth. An average thokola stands a shade under 8 feet tall, and weighs some 400 pounds. The thokola culture glorifies personal combat, and almost all thokolas, particularly males, are brought up as members of one or more warrior clan-guilds. Regardless of clan, they are all taught never to attack an obviously weaker foe unless insulted, and never to gang up on a foe unless it is bigger than two thokolas put together. There are many other such guidelines, but they vary from clan to clan. |
