Homebrew Alterian Species Details

The Alterians were created by the god Axtohl in a realm completely separate from our own. Due to their vast intelligence and wisdom they are known for having incredible skill over magic and technology. The alterians were originally from a different realm before they fled to ours through unknown means after a calamity destroyed their universe 500 years ago. Alterians are almost completely identical to humans in appearance the only things that separate the two, are the fact that alterians live to 1000 years and the fact that they possess physical capabilities far beyond that of any normal human. Due to their likeness to humans most alterians pose themselves as humans with incredible physical or magical capabilities. Due to the alterians rather unique culture they are natural pacifists and will rarely if ever attack anyone or anything, someone would have to do something very horrible to actually anger an alterian. Also because of their culture they rarely leave home but are known to have an insatiable curiosity once they become comfortable outside their homes.
