Harengon

Harengons originated in the Feywild, where they spoke Sylvan and embodied the spirit of freedom and travel. In time, these rabbitfolk hopped into other worlds, bringing the fey realm's exuberance with them and learning new languages as they went.

Harengons are bipedal, with the characteristic long feet of the rabbits they resemble and fur in a variety of colors. They share the keen senses and powerful legs of leporine creatures and are full of energy, like a wound-up spring. Harengons are blessed with a little fey luck, and they often find themselves a few fortunate feet away from dangers during adventures.

Harengon Names

The majority of harengon names are fairly short and guttural. However, many names are also influenced by the Feywild, including Sylvan words.

Masculine Names: Brummar, Derrivut, Heivalur, Lullordat, Morzumin, Niddelal, Sarwarin, Tadder, Timenar

Feminine Names: Chaeqirelle, Drabron, Dreznat, Fara, Gilsatra, Larragon, Miarora, Tammevah, Tezer, Vaglet

Harengon Sourcebooks

This version of the harengon race is official D&D material.
It was taken from The Wild Beyond the Witchlight.

The race has been slightly modified due to lack of traits from The Wild Beyond the Witchlight. Instead of giving a size option, this version is explicitly Small—with an accompanying size modifier to determine weight and height. The name options were taken from Fantasy Name Generators.

The Harengon Lineage option was presented in Tasha's Cauldron of Everything. This lineage has had some choices made for you to better reflect an actual harengon. Instead of choosing Small or Medium, you are Small. Instead of choosing 25 or 30 feet speed, your speed is 30 feet. Additionally, it has been modified to better fit the harengon race: instead of granting Darkvision as a Variable Trait, Rabbit Hop has been added.
