Homebrew Farborn Species Details

Farborn have a distinct, ethereal appearance. Their skin may shimmer faintly, or covered in a soft, translucent glow. Their eyes often glow blue, green, or golden—or appear like swirling galaxies. Some are also born with horns and/or tails, akin to the tiefling race. Many communities distrust Farborn, viewing them as a curse, a blight, or unknowable powers of the afterlife. People are uncomfortable around them, because even Farborns do not fully understand where they come from.
