Homebrew Fragment of RNGesus Species Details
When rolling dice for stats isn't enough dice rolling for you
Roll the dice more and more, until you bore...
Taken form from not the beings beyond the 4th wall, but the very dice those beings called "players" and "Dungeon Masters" use to determine fate.
They exist as an alien to the inhabitants of this world, suddenly taking shape and form in a world new to their conscious. Plausibility is stretched to the limits as they come into existence, creating a need for this specific character's backstory to reference world lore and stretch it. By making a plausible tale for how they came to be, the plausibility of their existence does not cross over the limits and is allowed entry into the world. Now as a being of this world, it is up to the player to decide how their story starts. Perhaps they have lived among the population for a while and adapted to the living world. Or maybe it's fresh from their first appearance when they set off on a journey of discovery.
Curious Minds
These entities usually set off on the adventurer's path due to their innate curiosity about the world around them, finding things that fascinate them and sticking by people who will make memories with them. Companionship is not exactly ideal given their origin and nature, but with a good enough natured party, it is welcome. Though be warned, for they lack in experience!
Be Suspicious? Of What?
With the lack of experience, social deduction skills are not their best forte. However, combined with their natural curiosity, they become a bit... too trusting in what they're told. However, this is not something a little bit of logic can solve, as with experience comes knowledge. Though... maybe that might make them rather extremely paranoid in the end...
Simple Pleasantries
When you come from nothing, and live a life of quickly adapting to your surroundings, it's the simple and steady things like the clouds rolling by or the sun rising that you really enjoy. It's a relaxing. Simple as that, and quite enjoyable as well!
Ghostly Appearance
In the neutral state of being, when no form is taken (Such as unconsciousness or resting) these beings turn into a greyed out wisp of smoke. While in this state, they effectively are incorporeal, but may still be interacted with in ways other than physical.
Ageless Beings
Upon taking form in this world, they are already effectively mature, already being in adulthood. They exist for as long as the world exists, and may often switch around their roles and lifestyle to experience all there is around them. Eventually, if enough experience is gained, one may enter enlightenment and return to beyond the fourth wall where they came from.
