Can been found on an Nexian with the Acid type
The veil of an Acid Nexian is a churning, semi-solid substance that appears as a greenish, corrosive mist. It hisses and bubbles, with droplets of acidic liquid occasionally dripping from it, sizzling as they make contact with surfaces. This veil radiates a faint, acrid odor that can be detected even when it is concealed. When the Nexian is channeling their abilities or experiencing strong emotions, the veil becomes more active, with larger droplets forming and the hissing sound growing louder.
-
Veil Mechanics: The veil works as a way to keep Nexians stable and provides them with power when needed. It represents their life force in a visual and sensory manner. The state of the veil indicates their health:
- Full Veil: The Nexian is healthy.
- Half-Full Veil: The Nexian is dying.
- Quarter-Full Veil: The Nexian is dead but can still be resurrected.
- Empty Veil: The Nexian is dead and only a true resurrection spell can bring them back as another race.
-
Veil Appearance: The veil's appearance changes based on the damage type it represents. It can be hidden by clothing and becomes more vivid when the Nexian is using their abilities or experiencing strong emotions.
-
Veil Interaction Damage: The veil deals 1d4 damage to anyone who touches it without the owner's permission, even if the person is resistant or immune to the damage type the veil represents.
-
Damage Pool: Nexians have resistance to their associated damage type, which increases to immunity at level 10. Damage that would have been taken is absorbed into a pool, which can be used to enhance their attacks:
- Levels 1-10: The pool can add an extra 1d6 damage on a critical hit.
- Levels 11-20: The pool can add an extra 1d8 damage on a critical hit.
-
Opposite Damage Vulnerability: Nexians are vulnerable to the damage type considered opposite to their own:
- Acid and Poison
- Cold and Fire
- Force and Lightning
- Necrotic and Radiant
- Psychic and Thunder
-
Self-Destruct Ability (Boom): Nexians have a racial ability that allows them to sacrifice themselves in an explosive attack:
- The explosion causes the Nexian to unravel and cease to exist, breaking their veil.
- Levels 1-10: Deals 25d10 damage.
- Levels 11-19: Deals 50d10 damage.
- Level 20: Deals 100d10 damage.
- Any damage stored in their pool is also added to the explosion.
