Homebrew Cubi Species Details

The Cubis are a unique race in the world of VIDRIOLIS, this strange species of small size have great innate power for magic that allows them to have a brutal control over it. Although most of them do not give an exaggerated importance to this trait, it is more than evident that they are capable of performing high-level spells from a very young age. The Cubis are actually the living form of a strange gem flower that grows in very strange caves of the underground world of Vidriolis, where the ether concentrates generating its crystallization due to strange unknown circumstances. When these Gem Flowers reach their Zenith, this creature is born from within them that normally coexist in small lumbos of the underground world of Vidriolis. On rare occasions they can be located on the surface of the world.

The blood of these creatures is highly valued, as it is a basic ingredient in the making of potions related to the ethereal planes. When a Cubi passes away, all the reminiscence of its matter shrinks, crystallizing into a small gem with the power to hide the wielder's magic from any arcane source. It is for this quality that in the world of VIDRIOLIS they have been persecuted with satiety. Unknown to most of the population, the "Void Shards" that protect mages from being discovered are Cubies that once died.
