Homebrew Starforger Species Details

Starforgers are enigmatic entities that rarely interact with the material plane. They are remnants of old gods or avatars of unspeakable entities and usually adopt a humanoid shape, but always maintain a trait of their cosmic domain (ex. Costellations, magma, etc). Their form sparks awe and fear in those not used to their appearance, but rarely someone recognizes such beings. It is said that starforgers have existed since the dawn of time, as the creators of all the stars in the universe. Others link them to deities taking on a frightening, or astounding form on the material plane. There have been long forgotten records of powerful individuals of this race coming down from the heavens to bless or receive tribute from peoples they deem worthy. A people originally at home in the astral or upper planes, the most common reason for one of these mythic beings to reside on the material plane is that it is comparatively young and looking for experience; it is a bored individual seeking intrigue; or it was once more powerful, and has been bound by some sort of force or artifact.
