Homebrew Voidforged Species Details
Voidforged are the embodiment of an amalgamation of souls that fuel a void crucible. The souls take the shape of a humanoid made of nebulous blackness, twinkling with the fragments of the souls that have come together to create a new whole.
Voidforged Traits
Nah lolVoid Crystal
Somewhere within the voidforged form is a void crystal which is the powerhouse and tether that keeps it alive and sentient. When a voidforged falls unconscious its nebulous form dissipates and all that remains is the void crystal.
Minds of Many
Being a collection of souls from all walks of life, Voidforged often recall esoteric information or skills, perhaps from an older soul of a historian, artisan, warrior, or mage. This can often be reflected in their personality too, where they can be timid at times and exceptionally brash at others.
Formless
Voidforged take the vague shapes of a humanoid, and can willingly switch between those that create the whole, but settling on a preferred appearance in a way to solidify a semblance of identity. Because of their lack of distinctive features, voidforged often wear distinctive clothing or armor, and often masks and helmets, to stand out and make it easier for others to more comfortably see and interact with them.
