Trapfoots are white-haired rabbit-humanoid hybrids commonly found in arctic climates. They live in small tribal groups called clusters. Viewed as "lesser" by many of the larger humanoid races and giants that live near them, these clusters frequently find themselves under the rule of powerful, non-trapfoot creatures who bully them into obeisance. Trapfoots who break free of these tyrannical tethers often prefer to spend the remainder of their lives away from other humanoid cultures, fearful for renewed oppression. Because of this natural distrust of the other humanoid races, many accuse trapfoots of being "antisocial" or even "evil."

Swords for Hire. Trapfoots who demonstrate a proclivity for cooperation with the other humanoid races sometimes offer their services as mercenaries, spies, or assassins. These sneaks use their awesome speed and reflexes to their advantage, and are capable of neutralizing targets long before their allies realize what happened.

Elemental Origins. Trapfoots trace their origin back to the elementals as one of the few humanoid races not created by the dulons or the dulons' creations. Pexian scholars theorize that this is the reason so many trapfoots are—erroneously—viewed as corruptible.
