Cavemen are a species closely related to humans; they are shorter and stockier, and much more heavily muscled. They do not all actually live in caves. Whether they are actually less intelligent than “normal” humans or not is a matter of debate, but it is true that they do not have the facility for language as other human, demi-human and humanoid races.

Cavemen are primitive tribal humans living beyond the reach of normal civilisation.

They typically dwell in caves and cavern systems. Their treasure will consist of ivory tusks, gold nuggets, or uncut gems (5% chance per 10 cavemen present). If one is present, it will be the only treasure there. The value of each is 1,000 gp per ivory tusk (2d6 tusks), 5 gp gold nuggets (2d4Γ—10), and 10 gp gems (1d%).

They favour spears, stone axes (treat as battle axes), and clubs (treat as morning stars) for weaponry. They add +1 to damage rolls due to their great strength.

They are frightened by the unknown and suffer a -1 to all morale checks.
