Homebrew Gildanya Species Details

Gildanya are people born with a god metal or alchemical metal that infuses and plates some or all of their skeletons, granting them particular abilities. Gildanya can be any sentient species, but their metal often overwhelms the abilities from their species. Gildanya themselves (especially ones of certain metals) can be enchanted or imbued with alchemical magic.
