Homebrew Eternal Species Details
“For they had been damned by the gods to walk the world. The gods ignored their first creations and created the Children of Creation. This served as a reminder of the day their fate was sealed and no more of their people would be born.”
Prior to the existence of the Children of Creation, this race of people are the precursors of the races that now walk Iaura. The eternals have different shapes and sizes but primarily resemble humans, elves and dwarves. The primary difference is that the eternals bear no flesh and are mere borns.
Ashes to Ashes
The eternals has been born of the ashes in the world at the time. They were carved into these bare bone creatures and were the first creation of the gods. They were gifted scholars and sought to praise the gods till the end of existence for they knew they were as immortal as the gods. As time passed the gods grew displeased with their creations and created the Children of Creation. The Children looked like the eternals but had flesh a top their bones. From that point on the eternals slowly dwindled away but did not give up. They built cities to praise the gods and would do anything to please them even if it meant death. Throughout all of this the gods were focused on their new children and abandoned the eternals. The eternals grew hateful and decided the gods were unnecessary for them to exist. From that day forth the eternals grew independent of the gods and sought the great arcane.
