Combat

Firfolk can use all types of weapons and armour, but it must be tailored to their large size.

Two-handed melee weapons: A firfolk can wield any two-handed melee weapon, such as a battle axe, with only one hand.

Innate Magic

At 2nd level, a firfolk is able to cast the glamour spell once per day and, at 4th level, invisibility once per day.

Languages

Firfolk know Common, their alignment language, and Firspeak (the native language of the firfolk race).

Open Doors

Firfolk open even barred doors with ease. They are treated as the next highest STR category when it comes to determining their chance of opening doors (see Ability Scores in Old-School Essentials). For example, a firfolk with STR 12 is treated as if their STR were in the 13–15 category instead.

Resilience

Firfolk's natural constitution and resistance to magic grants them a +2 bonus to saving throws versus poison, spells, and magic wands, rods, and staves.
