Homebrew Dødelig Species Details
Dødelig are identical to halfling skeletons, save that they are not made of bone. Their bodies are composed of variously colored stone writing with a dark blue hue of the magical energies that sustain them. A dødelig's body is made of whatever stone the skeleton was once encased within, a byproduct of the marrow they once had centuries before and the mystical powers enacted on it.
