Homebrew Forestborne Species Details

Towering folk of the deepest woodlands, the Forestborne stand 7 to 8 feet tall with broad shoulders, blue-gray skin mottled like ancient bark, and long, tufted ears resembling those of woodland beasts. Their gentle eyes gleam with quiet wisdom, and their massive frames belie a peaceful nature—they are steadfast guardians of nature's balance, weaving fey-touched magic to shield the wilds from harm. Shy and reclusive, they favor diplomacy with flora and fauna over strife, vanishing into leaf and shadow when threats arise, only emerging to protect the innocent or mend the earth's wounds.
