Homebrew Absolem Species Details

Absolem are long insect creatures sporting many arms and legs. They can have a large variations of colours on their skin, making beautiful patterns on their bodies. They have humanoid faces, giving them an unnerving appearance.

Absolem are a deeply religious race. They are one of the very few few races who communicate with the creator of this world. They also have an extremely unique life cycle.

When an Absolem is wounded enough to die or should one reach the end of their life, they do not die, instead falling unconscious. A magical metamorphosis begins and the Absolem sheds their old body, becoming an Absalas.

Absolem Traits

One with life, Creator's power, Death is not the end

One with life

Absolem are closely linked to The Creator. This allows them to channel the life of Gaea into their healing spells. You add your proficiency modifier to any healing you do from a spell or other magical source.

Absolem can also channel the voice of The Creator, allowing them to heal others with their voice. You can cast healing word once per long rest.

Creator's Power

Absolem seem to be able to defend themselves with a slither of The Creator's power. When ever you deal Radiant Damage from a magical source, you deal an extra 1 D4 radiant damage to the same target.

Death is not the end

Absolem go through a metamorphosis when they die. They become cocooned in an indestructible shell and re-emerge after a few hours as an Absalas. If your character dies in any way, including ways that would destroy your body or prevent resurrection, you become an indestructible object for 1 D10+2 hours. After this time, you become a new PC that is an Absalas. This trait is the only way you can make an Absalas.
