In the Forgotten Realms campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the alaghi is a monstrous humanoid that lives in temperate mountains and forests. It is 6 feet tall and covered in shaggy brown hair.

Publication history

The alaghi was introduced in the second edition in the Monstrous Compendium Forgotten Realms Appendix II (1991), which was later reprinted in Monstrous Compendium Annual Volume Three (1996).[1] The alaghi is presented as a playable character race in The Complete Book of Humanoids (1993),[2] and is later presented as a playable character race again in Player's Option: Skills & Powers (1995).

The alaghi appeared in third edition in Monsters of Faerûn (2001).[3]

Description

An alaghi is often neutral in alignment - however, villages of alaghi tend to be evil, while alaghi hermits tend to be nice and well faring creatures. Most alaghis are semi-nomadic hunter-gatherers.
