Hailing from coastal rainforests, rain creeper heritage characters are well suited to lives of adventure. Their skills allow them to move quickly, even amid the exposed tree roots of their homes, and to stay hidden from other predators.
Rain creeper settlements range from collections of tents and lean-tos, to semi-permanent treetop villages. They are led by the eldest male of the community, which means aggressive groups of rain creepers cycle through leaders at a rapid pace. Despite the simple method of determining leadership, the members of the community respect their leader, and there are relatively few intrigues relating to them.
Rain creeper communities tend to be pious. They venerate gods whose areas of interest include animals, forests, mountains, and the elements. The religious leader of the community is always an uncoupled female. In addition to her religious duties, she determines which members of the community may attempt to have children. Rain creeper families lobby hard for the right to reproduce.
