I used B/X race=class, which to me implied a caste system, somewhat in line with India's history, with Gorillas as the noble/warrior caste, Chimps as mystics/wizards, oragutans as the spiritual leaders, and baboons as the "untouchables" (hunters, thieves, assassins, etc.)<br /><br />In this kesherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17494262159858200847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8653301951574738973.post-22019271924272163292013-03-28T12:40:22.657-07:002013-03-28T12:40:22.657-07:00Your average silverback gorilla is capable of brea...Your average silverback gorilla is capable of breaking a 3-4 inch diameter bamboo pole with either his hands or his jaws. IIRC their jaws are capable of several hundred PSI bites. Snapping the bamboo with little effort rates as pretty strong in my book. As for the chimps look at what one chimp did to that woman.
