Homebrew Eidolon Species Details

A race of nonreal entities from a rift between spatial dimensions. They possess no true form themselves, and thus yearn after what real beings have. They copy their targets, becoming a complete visual doppelgänger, and are then instinctively driven to kill and consume their real counterparts, allowing them to become a true duplicate.

In their nonreal stage, most eidolons appear to be humanoid albinos whose features occasionally drip like slime. Occasionally, they may appear as if their body is unstable and made of visual static, which makes them physically painful to look at.

Eidolons do not have any homogenous culture or personality traits besides their innate desire for assimilation.

Eidolon Traits

When you create an Eidolon, it gains the following features:

Human Passing

When in your Real state, spells and abilities that target humanoids can target you as well. When in your Nonreal state, only abilities and spells that can target aberrations can target you.

Data Storage

As an action, while touching an object, you can store its information inside you. At the cost of 3 hit points, you can create a copy of the object, which persists as long as it is touching you. The object lasts 1 minute when you are not in contact with it, and this duration refreshes if you touch the object. When the object dissipates or is broken, it turns into slime. You can heal yourself for 3 hit points by touching this slime and assimilating it back into yourself.

You may only have the information of two objects stored at any one time.

Code Switching

As an action, you can switch to your Nonreal form or vice versa. When you switch to your Nonreal form, your visual appearance changes depending on your variant type. You can slightly change your appearance in your Nonreal form.

Liquid: Your body drains of its pigmentation, and becomes slightly slime or gel like. 

Dissociative: Your body becomes hazy and reminiscent of multicolored TV static.

Some abilities require you to be in your Nonreal form.
