Homebrew Emberborn Species Details

The Emberborn were once ordinary humans, elves, and other races, but their ancestors' exposure to the power of the Eternal Flame transformed them into something more. They are beings of fire and light, their very essence tied to the ancient powers of Vaeltharion. Their skin is often marked with glowing lines resembling molten lava, and their hair can appear as flickering flames or radiant light.

The Emberborn are not just warriors of the flame; they are guardians of the ancient knowledge, living embodiments of the Eternal Flame's will. They are bound by an ancient pact to protect the world from the return of Aetherion, The Convergence Dragon. This pact gives them unique abilities and a powerful connection to fire, which they wield in both combat and in their sacred duties.
