Homebrew Ender/Endermen Species Details

Christmas lights and midnight skies

Ender are one of the most recognizable races in the world. They all share black skin and their eyes are always bright neon, with a wide range of colors and heterochromia being more common than among other species. They tend to be very tall, reaching anywhere between 6 and 8 feet, and very slim and lanky with about 140 to 150 pounds.

Dry isolation

The Ender have perfectly accustomed to a life in the desert and do not leave it behind very often. This has caused them to lose a lot of ties to the outside world, though they have no problem actually communicating with other people as early Ender have stopped using Enderspeak in favor of learning Common. They do not need as much hydration as other species, though they do still need to drink water. They are fully capable of it, as water is only acidic towards their skin and no other body parts. Usually they keep a desert well in the middle of every town and village.

Your character has the following racial traits.

Ability Score Increase

Age

Ender have the same lifespan as humans although they do tend to look younger and mature slower. A 40 year old Ender is visually comparable to a 20 year old human.

Alignment

Ender can be any alignment, usually leaning towards neutral as their isolation gives them little care for the outside world.

Size

Between 6 and 8 feet but usually slender and lanky. Your size is medium

Darkvision

Accustomed to the dark and preferring a nocturnal schedule as well as having naturally bioluminescent eyes, they can see up to 60 feet in dim light as if it were bright light, and darkness as if it were dim light. Their darkvision is slightly tinted with the color of their eyes. Ender with heterochromia usually see the color of their right eye.

Speed

Your base walking speed is 35 feet.

High Armor Class

You have a base AC of 25 or higher. However if a player or a creature fails to hit you and rolls above 5, you will be forced to teleport to avoid the attack and temporarily lose 2AC for every failed hit. Your AC restores after a long rest.

Teleportation

You have a unique ability to teleport without any outside spells or magic. Teleporting can be used instead of movement and only requires the destination to be a free space anywhere within 100 feet. Using this ability will cost -2AC for each teleport. The AC is restored after a long rest.

Acid Water

Due to your build, water is highly acidic towards your skin. You take 1d6 acid damage for every combat turn spent in touch with water and 1d6 acid damage for every 5 seconds spent in contact with water outside combat. Depending on how much water comes in contact with you and in what state, this damage can go down to a 1d4 at minimum and 3d6 at maximum per interval (5 seconds outside and one turn inside combat).

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common.
