Homebrew Bewitched Species Details

Bewitched attach themselves to their old bodies, meaning that they resemble skeletons. Their magical essence surrounds their dead remains, creating a semi-transparent skin, which glows in different colors.

While they are undead, the Bewitched require their bodies to house their essence. If they take too much damage, they will die.

The Bewitched retain skills and abilities that they honed in life, but rarely remember the full details of their past.

Bewitched Traits

Creature Type: Undead
Size: Medium (about 4–7 feet tall) or Small (about 2–4 feet tall), chosen when you select this species

Bewitched Traits

As a Bewitched, you have these special traits.

Previous Talent

A long life has taught you many valuable skills. You gain expertise in 1 skill you are proficient in. You choose the skill when you pick this species.

Darkvision

You can see in dim light within 60 feet of yourself as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You discern colors in darkness as shades of gray.

Ethereal Sight

You can see 10 feet into the Ethereal Plane when you are on the Material Plane, and vice versa.

Sleepless

You do not require sleep and can choose to remain conscious during long rest, though you must refrain from strenuous activity to gain the benefit of the rest.

Unfeedable

You do not need to eat or drink.

Lesser Possession

Your spirit temporarily removes itself from your body. As an action, you choose one humanoid within 10 feet of you. They must make a DC charisma saving throw. On a failed save, you take control of their body for up to 1 minute. You gain access to the enemy’s stat block and can speak in their voice. You are unable to cast any spells that you don’t know. They can reroll their saving throw once at the beginning of their turn. On a successful save, your spirit returns to your body. If the humanoid is unconscious, they automatically fail the saving throw. While using Lesser Possession, your body falls prone and you are unable to control it. Enemies attacking your body roll with advantage. This ability can be used once per long rest.
