Coleopterans are intelligent, upright beetles with hard cara-
paces, bulging eyes, and functional antennae. Natural delvers,
they spend most of their time digging tunnels and warring
against other underground species. Their appearance and
high-pitched monotone make them disturbing adventuring
companions, however.
A coleopteran has the height and weight of a human of his
ST. No humanoid armor will fit a coleopteran, and the race –
being hard-shelled – never wanted for protection and so lacks
armorers. Thus, coleopteran PCs must make do with their nat-
ural DR 5.
