Homebrew Xolith Species Details
The Xolith were made by Yneus, the maker before he vanished. He does appear to have a connection to them however as the Xolith chisel stones for which they pray Yneus will embed a soul. Xolith are nothing more than sentient animate rocks... which do have telikinetic abilities and telepathy that holds the tribe together. Most Xolith stay close to the tribe but some do ponder what the rest of the world is like and leave the tribe. Xolith also have a tendency to "tattoo" each other by chiseling the rocks that make up their bodies.
