Homebrew Therossian Kalashtar Species Details

Being the combination of humans who willingly fused with wandering souls, Kalashtar look much like humans, having the same ranges of eye, hair, and skin colours. Kalashtar are commonly tall and slim, though Kalashtar of all sizes exist. Kalashtar are commonly reserved, tranquil and tend to spend significant time thinking something through before acting. They're kind and caring towards others though, in an intellectual manner rather than emotional. It is not known exactly why kalashtar take a keen interest in controlling their emotions, but it is commonly believed to be due to the turmoil they suffer from their conjoined souls. They express their friendship with a wry smile and through offhand comments rather than being cordial or making lewd jokes. The fragments of the Eidolon soul subsumed within the Kalashtar distantly remember their previous body, and long to return to it.

At times, however, Kalashtar are unable to merge their human half's sensitivity with the strange and wild visions and memories of their Eidolon souls, and in these moments, beneath their serene makeup, Kalashtar are at conflict within themselves, displaying confusing and sometimes dangerous behaviour, struggling to fend off insanity.

Mind Link

You can speak telepathically to any creature you can see, provided the creature is within a number of feet of you equal to 10 times your level. You don't need to share a language with the creature for it to understand your telepathic utterances, but the creature must be able to understand at least one language.

When you're using this trait to speak telepathically to a creature, you can use your action to give that creature the ability to speak telepathically with you for 1 hour or until you end this effect as an action. To use this ability, the creature must be able to see you and must be within this trait's range. You can give this ability to only one creature at a time; giving it to a creature takes it away from another creature who has it.

Severed From Dreams

Kalashtar sleep, but they don't connect to the plane of dreams as other creatures do. Instead, their minds draw from the memories of their otherworldly spirit while they sleep. As such, you are immune to spells and other magical effects that require you to dream, like Dream, but not to spells and other magical effects that put you to sleep, like Sleep.

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common, the language of your Eilodon and one other language of your choice.
