Homebrew Attr'iki Species Details
The Attr'iki are beings created by the Elder God Attressvi with the goal of making a species that could populate his domain, one that is ever changing and experiences frequent climate change. Their ability to adapt to their environment allows them to populate even the most desolate spaces, including some places of space itself. Their existence was created when Attressvi was released from his solitude and he claimed one of the moons for himself. As such they are a young race compared to most beings, and their impressionable nature combined with their natural abilities make them easily influenced.
Due to Attressvi's nature most of his creations don't follow the pantheon of the gods, nor do they regard their creator as a god but more as a father or grandfather. Due to this the Attr'iki often don't regard deities or celestial/demonic beings as higher powers, rather than simply creatures that live separate from themselves. However their impressionable nature often attracts them to the cults of deities or demons and they are easily persuaded towards their way of thinking.
