Homebrew Argentian Species Details
While Argentians appear human, some noticeable differences are their ears. Pointy like an elf's on top but the bottom of their ears are square shaped, In addition all Argentians are born with a red mark on the back of their necks which eventually becomes a horn depending on their power and age, when the horn grows the birthmark of an Argentians moves to a random part of the body. It is said that all Argentians come from the "Red Tree of Power" which they worship like a god along with other deities. Those who focus on pursuing strength usually end up with sharper horns more prone to being ripped off by their foes while the Argentians who follow the magical path either have their horns fall of naturally or it becomes impossible to rip off of even chip. When the horn of a magical Argentian falls off naturally they gain a Blue Mark where it once was, increasing their magical abilities. An Argentian's durability is unrivaled, rumors have it that one could even endure the most powerful spells from 10 of the world's most powerful spellcasters and have bodies that shatter even adamantine under the right conditions.
