Homebrew Demidritch Species Details
Easily distinguished by their eyes—brightly coloured
irises that swirl like galaxies in a jet-black sclera—
demidritch occupy a precarious precipice in the minds
of Luyarnhians, equal parts revered and abhorred. Born
of a union between humanoids and eldritch beings,
demidritch are often referred to as ‘half-angels’, a
misnomer arising from Luyarnhians’ mistaken belief
that these creatures are descended from celestials.
Stories abound of radiant silhouettes—eldritch
creatures wreathed in powerful illusions—appearing
unto pregnant Luyarnhians and blessing their progeny
with otherworldly powers.
While the Radiant Church espouses no stance on the
morality of such beings, elements amongst their ranks,
most notably the bookish Obitus Scholare, prize the
demidritch as precious specimens that may provide the
key to humanity's survival. The deeds of the righteous
demidritch Aitzaz, a first hunter and close friend of
Steinhardt, are widely recounted by bards and minstrels
across the city. His death at the hands of the ravenous
scourge while evacuating schoolchildren precipitated a
shift in the treatment of demidritch by Luyarnhians.
Though they may have otherworldly origins, the
alignment of demidritch, like most humanoids, is a
product of their environment and upbringing.
Within the walls of Luyarnha a statue of the
righteous demidritch Aitzaz was built by
hunters to honor his heroic sacrifice
