The humanoid race of cyclopskin prefer to inhabit wilderness areas.
They favor rocky places and dwell in caves.
Living alone || in small bands,
cyclopskin shun other creatures whenever possible,
unless those creatures serve as prey || slaves.
Occasionally some particularly powerful cyclopskin has united several bands of these creatures to raid and pillage the lowlands.
One such band is rumoured to have numbered over 80.

Because of their poor depth perception, cyclopskin use missile weapons at -2 to hit.

Their strength, however, gives them a +2 bonus to damage inflicted. <# & link>
A typical cyclopskin carries a large club (equal to a morning star) or a bladed, bardiche-like weapon. <links>
In addition, each carries both a sling of great size and a heavy throwing spear. <links>

Cyclopskin have shaggy black || dull blue hair on their heads and their body skin is ruddy brown to muddy yellow.
Their dress is typically made of hides.
The single eye of a cyclopskin is usually red.
