Homebrew Fireborn Species Details

 

The fireborn come from a deep circle of hell that has been destroyed and all its inhabitants transported into the material plane. One of these is the fireborn a fiery humanoid creature that has small flames forming at random spots on the body, sometimes even the fireborns hair is a fiery flame that bursts into violent and hot spots when they react with anger.

Outlander

the fireborn are new to this plane and are often not well accepted amongst other races. Even though most of the fireborn try to fit by taking part in cultural activities (sometimes very disrespectfully) they stand out with their hair made of fire.

Appearance 

Fireborn usually have long fiery hair that drapes down their shoulders and pale skin equal to that of a crystal. This is one of the many forms of a fire born, they can also have short hair and orange skin that if you look deep into it you can see small flames. They usually dress in tunics and easy clothes that they just lazily put on, that is a common thing for fireborn is that they don’t have a sense of style. They also can’t wear helmets due to their hair, the metal would melt and deal serious damage to their head.

Fiery touch

The fire of hell has been manifested in a fire born, due to this they leave small burn marks on wood when they walk around and sometimes they accidentally burn something. Because of this, they do not wear shoes since they would you burn through.
