Homebrew Starborn Species Details
Starborn are some of the oldest living races known to mankind. Celestial bodies formed out of nothing but dust and time that fell down to the material plane. The Starborns desire is to eventually return to the cosmos and continue on their legacy. Alot is unknown about the Starborn, few if any are ever seen residing within the material plane. Their bodies speckled with stars that twinkle and glint as if they carried the night sky upon their skin. Starborn are assumed to be immortal as no one has ever seen one die from old age. Starborn do not die like most humanoids, they are reborn into a new celestial body that allows them to continue on their life as a new star within the sky.
