Homebrew Empyrean Species Details

Empyrean Manifestation
Empyreans possess dormant powers that might one day awaken to usher in a new age. They are living manifestations of concepts, ideologies, and beliefs, born when those notions are especially prevalent around the world. For example, during a death-wrought war, amidst all the bloodshed and collective suffering, an Empyrean of Rot might be born, representing the decay of the world.
Empyreans are not born of flesh; they are simply formed into existence at a young age. As the notion they represent grows or wanes in influence, the Empyrean's own power will rise and fall.
Empyreans are affected by the notions they represent and receive both a boon and a curse as a result. You can come up with your own Empyrean or roll from the table below:
