Homebrew Vind Species Details
"Since the dawn of Gaia, the Vind was thought to be a myth; a mystery retold through whispers everywhere. From rowdy taverns to the quietest corner of a library, myths of their grand cities spread throughout the generations. It was said that these floating cities were held up with only the magic power of the Vinds and nothing else. Spotting a Vind was considered a bad omen. They are painted as an evil race in most stories, but in truth, the Vinds were a peaceful race. They sought refuge in Gaia while Carris pillaged their home, the Endless Sky. In order to not disturb the tentative Gaia towns in place, the Vinds took to the skies, very rarely ever coming down from their aerial cities."
Vinds have lavender skin, magenta eyes, and gray hair. Vinds also possess unnatural blood giving them regenerative abilities as well as unable to be scarred.

Posted Aug 6, 2021All these are reference points for a homebrew campaign with an entirely different ruleset, I know the abilities seem busted or incomplete for a 5e campaign. I just had to publish them so my friends can see them
