Homebrew Fate Watcher Species Details

A Watcher is a mysterious race, that no-one knows where they came from but many story's depict them as protectors of the realms that were created to oversee the mortal plane and guide it's inhabitants. On rare occasions, a Watcher will come down to the mortal plane, often choosing to live amongst society since appearance wise, they're impossible to tell apart from humans.

Watchers are described as rather friendly, often willing to help and guide anyone who has done them no previous harm. They get along well with most races, but tend to avoid undead and fiends for reasons that are yet unknown.
