Homebrew Fungus Shade Species Details

Shades were humanoids who had merged with the essence of shadowstuff. They were said to have traded away their very souls, in exchange for profound physical prowess, protection from harm, and ageless immortality.

Fungus Shade Traits

Your shade character has a collection of traits that arise from being a shade as well as a few drawn from life.

Darkvision

Your existence beyond death makes you at home in the dark. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Imperfect Undeath

You are a humanoid, but your partial transition into undeath makes you susceptible to effects that target undead. Though you can regain hit points from spells like cure wounds, you can also be affected by game effects that specifically target undead, such as a cleric’s Turn Undead feature. Game effects that raise a creature from the dead work on you as normal, but they return you to life as a shade. A true resurrection or wish spell can restore you to life as a fully living member of your original race.
