I have two questions concerning these cute and murderous little monkey-men.

#1: How do you pronounce "charau-ka"? I've been saying "char-oo-kah", but I think I might be wrong.

#2: Does anyone have any good recommendations for charau-ka miniatures?


I can't pronounce anything, so I can't help you with the first, but I was planning on using lots of these guys:

war ape from war of the dragon queen set

Sovereign Court

I say "char-oo-kah," too, and I've developed three adventures full of 'em so far!

Yeah, I know it sounds cool rolling off your tongue, but please stop saying "char-oo-kah" over and over and over again. It's getting annoying.

1) cha-roo-KA (rhymes with ha-too-PA).

2) We first introduced the charau-ka in an old Complete Encounter called "Throne of the Gorilla King." You can still pick them up here at paizo.com.

Very cool. I think the Pathfinder miniatures line needs a charau-ka mini. I just can't see buying six of these sets just to get 6 charau-kas (wait, charau-ki?).

D'oh! Thank you!


Question? : what kind of treasure do the charau-ka carry when encountered as random monsters, standard?, npc gear?. just curious, the stat block in racing to ruin does not list it.

by the way i love the adventure path so far, it reminds me of playing 1st edition dnd 20+ years ago, it also has an indiana jones feel that i really like.

Sovereign Court

Randomly encountered charau-ka would have standard treasure for their CR.
