Homebrew Ashborn Species Details

Long ago, when souls refused to move on, they were given a second chance—but not in the form they once knew. The Ashborn are spectral entities of smoke and embers, walking between life and death. Their forms flicker like dying flames, and their presence carries the scent of charred memories.
