Homebrew Cinder Species Details
A a child of another race and a female fire genasi, cinders inherit the keen mind of the efreet, and tend to be impulsive and passionate. With elemental beauty and magnetism, you exult in your distinctive features, though not as profound as your elemental mother. You are able to pass for your father's race in most circles.
Nearly all fire genasi are feverishly hot as if burning inside, and cinders exhibit this to a lesser degree. Cinders are characterized by flaming red, coal- black, or ash-gray hair, and eyes that flare with emotion and exertion. When angered, heat waves may appear and the smell of smoke linger in the air.
Cinders retain much of the abilities of the their elemental lineage, though slightly diminished. They benefit from an elemental dose of charisma unique to cinders, exclusive from their parents' traits.
