Homebrew Accumulation Devil Species Details
Infernal Bloodline
These devils are derived from human, devil, and tiefling blood sacrifices, and in the broadest possible sense, they still look humanoid. However, their devil heritage has left a clear imprint on their appearance. Accumulation devils have large bat-like wings protruding from their back. They possess rigid tails that are clubbed at the end. They posses no eyes, mouth, nose, or ears, yet they still have the senses that are affiliated with those body parts. Their 'skin’ is pure white and they are incapable of growing hair. They always weigh exactly 60lbs and stand at exactly 6ft tall.
Self-Reliant & Hunted
Accumulation devils were brought into this world via ritual sacrifice. They were made for killing and that is all. The more they kill, the more their capacity grows. At certain capacity milestones, when they aid in killing a devil, they absorb it’s essence and take on some of it’s physical traits.
Due to it’s evil intent upon creation, and the fact that it came about via what is still considered murder, accumulation devils have been banned from merely existing in every major city. They are still only rarely accepted among rogue villages and towns and due to this, often end up as weary travelers with no companions.
Accumation Devil Names
As they can be brought about by any race, as long as they have much skill in the dark portion of the arcane, they are often just given the name of one of the sacrifices used to make them. Due to this, their names can be derived from anywhere, though it is usually human or tiefling, as those are the two most important sacrifices of the ritual.
TRAVELER BONDS
Since Accumulation Devils rarely live in communities, their only social interactions are with other outcasts and adventurers. Those kinds of people are generally more accepting of misfits and outcasts, so they often end up in adventuring party's, taking on whatever personality the party like best.
