Homebrew Chaosborn Species Details
One Hundred years ago, a new race of mortals stepped onto the world stage. These beings, said to be the creation of the Flow itself, appeared from seemingly nowhere but arrving all over the world. Their numbers are not known but they have never been seen in groups of more than 2. They speak of purpose and seek to find theirs. Many fear them, some because they are so new and foreign, but many others because of their natural aptitude toward the arcane.
Physically, Chaosborn are known to be monochrome creatures. Their coloring is from head to toe and even magically changes whatever they are wearing or holding. This appears to be subconscious and uncontrollable by the Chaosborn. In addition, they have patterns on their bodies. For instance, one may have geometric shapes, while one has stripes and yet another is covered in circles. No two have ever been observed to have the same coloring and patterns.
