Homebrew Xolotling Species Details

A species of Axolotl-like humanoids. Allegedly descended from the god Xolotl. Can be a variety of different colors, such as blue, pink, grey, gold, black, purple, or copper. Can also looks like it's been split down the middle, with two different colors being present. Have the gills and tail of axolotls, and can eat the same foods, but prefer stuff that's... you  know, cooked. To a slightly lesser degree, have the healing abilities of an axolotl, with axolotls being a common sight in large aquariums in households owned by this species. If you kill an axolotl in front of any one of them, you are forever considered an enemy of the species, the same being applied if you kill one of them. Some have more developed gills because they have spent more time in the water, but most have smaller gills compared to their head, when looked at against an axolotl. They are a very rare species, because they have been hunted for experimentation on because of their near impossible healing abilities, or have died defending axolotls from the same fate. Because of this, you don't see them often and if you do, it's generally a once in a lifetime experience because they usually like in secluded stretches of woodland, generally near large likes to practice swimming. Instead of having children, they lay eggs, with the general amount of eggs laid being up to 100, but most children dying in their first few weeks of life, of unknown causes. Their homes are generally partially submerged, at least part of it. They also have shorter life spans, with their life being about 50 years long.

Xolotling Traits

Fast swimming, Fast healing, able to heal from most wounds, water breathing.

Water Breathing

Your creator instilled you with the abilities of one of his animals, the axolotl, a salamander which can breathe underwater and swim faster than most humans. You are able to swim underwater without need for come up, and can stay underwater indefinitely, provided it is fresh water and you have a source of food. 

Ward Against Disease

Once you increase in power an adequate amount, the small spark of divinity within you granted to you by Xolotl begins to get more powerful in tandem, and with that comes more abilities of your patron god. You now have a minor hand in another sphere of control of Xolotl, disease. You are immune to any fatal or utterly crippling diseases, but are still effected by minor ones. (Unlocked at lvl 5)

Aura of misfortune

Because of your relation to Xolotl, when you take a long rest and restore your energy, you are able to, for one round (each player preforming one for more actions), roll a d10. If you roll 10 or higher, every creature including your allies within 15 feet of you is disadvantaged on everything. That ends when it is back to your turn (works only when in combat). (Unlocked at 5th level)
