Is the adventure about recovering a long-lost relic? Guess what's your tabaxi's greatest fixation. Is the adventure about fighting a demon lord? Boom, your new tabaxi character has become obsessed with fiends. Tabaxi has strong but fleeting obsessions that can easily line up with the next leg of the adventure. Tabaxi curiosity can come in a lot of forms, and that gives you a plethora of character options and easy introductions into campaign settings. This is where a lot of their chaotic nature comes in, as they'll likely be up for anything if they think it'll make for an exciting adventure. The story of the daring dungeon delving is far more important than the actual treasure at the dungeon's end. They appreciate gold and trinkets as much as the next race, but what they're really after is the stories. Because of this, it's easy to work them into the forgotten realms or any other campaign setting. Tabaxi you meet along your adventures are all essentially on a walkabout, following their curiosity to wherever it takes them. However, their god blesses them within innate curious nature that compels them to explore. Tabaxi life in their distant homeland is tribalistic and simple, where they are content with their patron deity, The Cat Lord. They're meant to be wanderers, visiting the here and now out of curiosity and wanderlust. Wherever your adventure takes place, the tabaxi always comes from somewhere far away.

Tabaxi can make for some wonderfully flavorful and fun characters, so let's take these cats out of the bag and go through everything you need to know.

This 5e race can range from lion-esque noble felines to mangy alley cat pickpockets and everything in between. Wanderers from a far-off land, precocious minstrels and thieves, the Tabaxi are the quintessential catlike humanoid of the D&D multiverse that we got introduced in Volo's Guide to Monsters.
