Racial Perks:

Power Lift (open) Power Lift (close)

Power Lift is a strange technique enabling the user to lift or carry much more than their physical strength would normally allow. This technique effectively triples the weight the user can lift, carry over their head, push, or pull. It does not affect their strength in other ways, and does not enhance the damage one can deal with weapons or unarmed combat.

Yeti Punch (open) Yeti Punch (close)

The user's punches become significantly strengthened, with roughly double the force packed into each blow. Additionally, his fists will be surrounded with extremely frigid air when they rush through the air, capable of causing cold damage to sensitive objects.

Bonus Treasure (open) Bonus Treasure (close)

Bonus Treasure is a utility trait, and a universal racial perk. As such, any character can choose to gain it as a perk upon character creation. Because this treasure is a universal perk, no character may acquire it after creation. A character created with this perk may be created with any an additional treasure for free. The gained treasure must be in the Lowest Cost category, or be any one treasure with a set cost of less than 30 rupees. Of course, the character must be able to meet any prerequisites of the treasure to be gained.


Unlike most perks, Bonus Treasure can be taken multiple times. The user can either gain multiple Lowest Cost treasures, or gain a single more costly treasure, as follows.


2 Bonus Treasures: the user may gain any single treasure in the Lower Cost category.

3 Bonus Treasures: the user may either gain any single treasure in the Low Cost category, or one Lowest Cost treasure and one Lower Cost treasure.


Through Bonus Treasure, the user can never gain any set cost treasure with a cost of 30 rupees or more. Similarly, the user cannot use this effect to gain the Crafting or Profession treasures, or additional levels of either.

Items and Techniques:

Giant's Mask (open) Giant's Mask (close)

Giant's Mask is a peculiar magical mask, which generally appears as a gray mask bearing the likeness of a tall-faced, ominous stone statue. When worn, it causes the wearer, itself, and anything else the wearer is wearing to grow to immense size. A typical wearer will double in height, becoming appropriately wider, heavier, and stronger in the process. When the mask is removed, this effect fades as well, and the wearer returns to his or her normal size.


This is a Major treasure. A character who has never gained a Major treasure may gain this treasure normally. Otherwise, the character must first acquire Major Gain specifically to gain this treasure.

NonLethal Enchantment (open) NonLethal Enchantment (close)

Nonlethal Enchantment is a spell useful for peaceful purposes, such as training or subduing criminals. With little more than a thought, it can be cast on any weapon, body part, spell, or technique the caster is capable of using in combat. Alternatively, the caster can cast it on his entire being. The enchanted object(s) become unable to cause death or injuries that can't heal on their own--such as broken bones. Bruises, minor cuts, and the like are the worst injuries that can be sustained while this enchantment is in use.


Gained through Bonus Treasure.

Appearance: Geti stands at a towering 10' and weighs 500 lbs. of absolute muscle. Thick white fur(Seemingly patterned in knitted zigzags across his torso.) covers his deep blue skin, with the exception of his hands and feet.

When under the persona of Serengeti, he wears a large bedsheet around his head for a bandana. When not performing, the Bandana is removed due to the relative warmth of Hyrule, revealing a large messy tuft of fur.


Personality: Geti is generally a gentle, jolly giant, laughing heartily at the many peculiar sights and happenings of the world beyond Snowhead. Though not very knowledgeable about the world(describing many things purely in the highly simplified Hylian language that he knows), he's always willing to explore new places, try new things and meet new people. While Geti is normally a peaceful soul, a long lineage of fighters and a life of training have instilled within him an immense joy for punching things, preferably in the face. Always looking for bigger and stronger opponents to take down, Geti's dream is to become the most well-known fighter in all of Hyrule.

When under the persona of Serengeti, he puts on what he considers to be a Hylian accent, becoming loud and boastful, letting anyone and everyone within earshot know that ‘Serengeti the Yeti is the greatest fighter in all the land, brother,’ daring anyone to challenge him. He makes a habit, however, to be a little more gentle with opponents who he knows that he outclasses; a fair fight is more fun.


Background: Geti was born high up in the cold mountains of Snowhead. He came from a long lineage of wrestlers, spectacle fighters who specialized in stunning displays of endurance and strength to impress(and sometimes intimidate.) fellow Yetis. From the moment he could first walk, Geti showed signs of growing into a powerful man, picking up boulders overhead and throwing them around for fun. When he was old enough, Geti’s father, Seren, took him out into the woods and taught him how to grapple his first bear to the ground, an old family tradition. From then on, Geti trained to one day inherit his family’s legacy.

With the arrival of the hairless Yetis from below the mountain, calling themselves Hylians, Seren saw an opportunity to bring their tradition to the eyes of a new audience. Making long treks to the Hylians’ home of Castle-town, he would entertain the masses pinning bears to the dirt, clotheslining Hylian strongmen, breaking Gorons’ backs and making them humble. He never turned down a challenge, and it was a fun and successful business. And Geti was there every step of the way, cheering on his father, as well as watching the way that he and his challengers fought, memorizing their techniques

Unfortunately, not everyone wanted to face Seren in a clean fight. A shabby character, looking to gain attention for himself, assaulted the great Yeti in the ring with a knife to the back of the knee. Though Seren still emerged the victor, the wound he had suffered left him physically impaired, and eventually forced him into an early retirement. A few years passed, and Geti was prepared to return to Castle Town, with only a few possessions to his name, and the title of Serengeti the Yeti, and continue the trade that his father had started. However, this time, the wrestling Yetis were old news. Few people came, and even fewer challengers. Geti would have to find a new way to spread his name and draw in new crowds.

Eventually, his search led him to the Goron Slums, where the once mighty tribes participated in their traditional Sumo matches. Drawn by their unique fighting style, and the honor and respect that opponents had for eachother, Geti entered the circle and began to work his way from the ground up. Adapting to the new techniques that he was being subject to, he eventually began to accumulate victories under his belt, and the name of Serengeti the Yeti became one to watch.But this was only the start. Geti knew he could reach greater heights than this, in a town where the only other Yeti was a bard at a local inn. When the time was right, Serengeti the Yeti would be a name known across the whole of Hyrule.

It's always good to see a Yeti being a Yeti. Accepted.~
