Homebrew Empath Species Details
Empaths are sensitive creatures, who can feel the emotions of those around them. You can sense the feelings of those around you strongly, and often let them affect you more than most. You know when a creature is lying, and you can tell when they are nervous or excited. While to some, this may seem like a blessing, to others it may seem a curse, and the thoughts and feelings of everyone around you can overwhelm your brain.
