Homebrew Demigod - Grave Species Details

Born of the cursed, you walk the living plane and draw power from that of the fallen. Your very being was tainted and blessed by death since before they knew you'd exist and you were forced to live with it. A curse and a brace is the hand of the damned, you've grown in age but you never even had the chance at being young, so tell me child, do you grieve the person you could have been?
