They are curious in the extreme, frequently badgering people with questions ( sometimes very personal questions), picking small items up to examine them, opening doors to see where they lead, and generally exploring places where the human sense of propriety and order would demand they not go. Vanaras are often viewed with amusement or even exasperation by members of other races, who find their personalities childish and irritating. They have long, semiprehensile tails, long fingers and toes, and large ears, but their arms, legs, and torsos are proportioned like those of humans. Their faces are distinctly monkeylike, with protruding muzzles, furred cheeks, and wide, lipless mouths. The hair on a vanara’s head matches the color of its fur. Despite their fur, vanaras can grow lengthy hair on their head just as humans can, and both male and female vanaras take pains to wear elaborate hairstyles for important social functions. Their bodies are covered with light fur, ranging from white through light blue to brown and black. Vanaras are intelligent, monkeylike humanoids that live in deep, warm forests and lush jungles. So it seems like a good time to introduce them to the players. With a little reading, you can find Vanara were in Oriental Adventures and continue to be in Pathfinder. The inspiration was watching Wuxia movies a few months ago about Sun Wukong the monkey king. This week I bring the Vanara race to my Wuxia Campaign.
