Homebrew Dark Entianty Species Details
With in this homebrew I went from being out right evil to being a monster. Yes this race will be consider "Undead" but not a fiend due to the fact it was never turn into a fiend and this is not from an evil plain. You are not a ghost for your soul has posses the corpse of the fallen adventures, what your body has become is not a zombie either but black substance that can shift or change looks but your normal look is black skin with white eyes. The reason for this is that the plain itself changes your soul and slowly turned your new body into a black substance changing every it looks every so often.
The substance is consider some what of a slim, to top it off you can shift your body to meet the needs such as; extend your limes, and your body shifting your appearance to blind in such as minor illusion . Your eyes are not normal being pure white some can mistaken you to be blind, your magical senses is enhance your eyes you can see in darkness and sense hidden creatures within 30 feet, example; you can see in darkness 60ft. but not see throw magical darkness, but you can sense anything within 30 ft. within magical darkness. your body still require you to eat as normal. You do not need sleep but you can take a long for 8 hours or 4 hour for a short rest. When you take a long rest your body is some what invisible in dark areas, this ignores regular dark vision. When your body shift it will stay the same size, also any body part that is cut off can regenerate after a feeding or if you retrieve the cut off limb fast enough. It will take an action to put you severed limb back in place unless it cut off with radiant damage. If the limb that is cut off with radiant damage then it is permanently gone, you can still grow it back after a feeding. "This is very important" you have immunity to necrotic damage due to the fact you are not a living creature of any kind and your body is composed of necrotic energy, you take an extra dice damage from radiant (this stacks with paladin smites), you have resistance to non magical attacks due to the face your body is a magical like gooey substance.
"IMPORTANT" What every Race you start as, you can attain their racial feats also: example if your character has a elvish soul you can apply elvish accuracy. You can only have one type of preview race.
This race is meant as a boss for DMs

Dark Vision
Accustomed to twilit forests and the night sky, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.
Blind Sense
Using nonvisual senses, such as sensitivity to vibrations, keen smell, acute hearing, or echolocation, a creature with blindsight maneuvers and fights as well as a sighted creature. Invisibility, darkness, and most kinds of concealment are irrelevant, though the creature must have line of effect to a creature or object to discern that creature or object. The ability’s range is specified in the creature’s descriptive text. The creature usually does not need to make Spot or Listen checks to notice creatures within range of its blindsight ability. Unless noted otherwise, blindsight is continuous, and the creature need do nothing to use it. Some forms of blindsight, however, must be triggered as a free action. If so, this is noted in the creature’s description. If a creature must trigger its blindsight ability, the creature gains the benefits of blindsight only during its turn.
- Blindsight never allows a creature to distinguish color or visual contrast. A creature cannot read with blindsight.
- Blindsight does not subject a creature to gaze attacks (even though darkvision does).
- Blinding attacks do not penalize creatures using blindsight.
- Deafening attacks thwart blindsight if it relies on hearing.
- Blindsight works underwater but not in a vacuum.
- Blindsight negates displacement and blur effects.
