Homebrew Auspah Species Details

A race driven near to extinction, the Auspahs dwell in the shadows, hidden from society. 

Appearance

The Auspah bear a striking resemblance to humans. Their skin tones range from porcelain to ebony. They have red glowing eyes and instead of hair, they have gold or silver horns that give off the appearance of a crown. Many Auspah have varied face markings.

History

The Auspah were known to be an ancient race part of the Zarosian empire, aging back to thousands of years. They were presumably an active community in the Second Age, but their villages were invaded and all but obliterated by the Fremennik tribes, who believed they had powerful artifacts. The Auspah had control over fire, and thus the Fremennik found them useful and enslaved them. After the annihilation of most of the Auspah, many turned to Zaros, the God of fate and control.
