Homebrew Awakened Rock Species Details
You were just sitting there, being a rock - you had no desires, no hopes, no shame and no fear - when, for some bizarre purpose, someone or something gave you sentience. What reason would someone have for doing such a thing? That's for them and god to know.
Now you wonder the world with what little mobility has been granted to you, searching for purpose to your new-found existence.
