Homebrew Crystalfolk Species Details

Crystalfolk live in the space between where planes overlap, the space between the plane of Positive Energy and the Elemental Plane of Earth. Crystalfolk are large, crystalline beings made entirely of gemstone and rock, often mistaken for beautiful stone golems or simply regular earth elementals. Each Crystalfolk has a core made of pure radiant energy that fuels their being, it powers their movements, and allows them to harness the weave.

Crystalfolk are an intelligent species, seeking to know everything they can about the world; their entire society is built on intelligence and the pursuit of knowledge. They are pacifists by nature, only defending themselves if there is no option left.
