Homebrew Dzin Species Details

Dzins are an illusive people rarely found outside of their hidden temples and monasteries dedicated to meditation in the far reaches of the world. Their research into the nature of reality and the secrets of the universe have garnered a reputation worthy of commendation, respect, and fear.

Dzins are unique in appearance, with steel grey eyes, dark hair, and either red or blue skin. Scholars dispute the origin of Dzins, but it is understood that over the course of countless generations, they reshaped their minds and bodies to allow themselves to see into the "World's Pulse", an unnatural perception that allows them to see every aspect of the world around them, even if they should be unable to. Dzins are touched by the far realm and are given an unnatural insight characterized by a third eye that dominates their forehead. When opened, this eye allows one to see a brief glimpse of the future and can be used to avoid fates that spell danger and see dark tidings - This alone made them renown soothsayers and sages.

Dzins are the original developers of many illusion, divination, and abjuration techniques, all of which were natural necessities in their line of study and choice of residence. Not all Dzins are powerful wizards, but you'd do well to respect them anyways.
