Homebrew Crimson Demon Species Details

Originally derived from a group of modified humans, Crimson Demons, for the most part, appear to be normal humans, with one exception: their eyes all feature deep crimson irises that glow when they experience intense emotions. Those unfamiliar with Crimson Demons often misinterpret the glow as a sign of anger, a mistake which, depending on the individual, can be seen as either useful or frustrating. They also tend to have dark hair.

While their general physiology is identical to that of ordinary humans, Crimson Demons possess abnormally high magical potential, as well as exceptional intelligence, making them well suited to wielding powerful magic.
