Homebrew Lunarian Species Details

Physical Appearance:

Lunarians are rare, medium, humanoid beings not commonly seen outside of their homeland or battles, having massive wings covering their full length backside. These wings can be of various colors and material. Though commonly black feather like appearances are seen. These massive wings do give the Lunarians flight abilities but many choose to keep their wings hidden inside their backs outside of battle. Given the ability to fly sets them apart from many other races. Their training of flight from the time they are born have made them excellent flyers.

Their skin tones and hair also come in a variety of colors where is their eyes are red, orange, and yellow described as living lava or dark grey and black similar to cooling magma with pupils. Lunarians are often seen with no scars upon their bodies due to their mysterious blood. If a Lunarian has a mark upon their body it is often thought that a powerful magic was used against them in battle. Even though this great race does not scar easily, some have been seen to have symbols and other tattoos upon their skin using various ways to keep the marks from fading. These markings may be personal symbols, religious, or mostly seen battle marks.

All Lunarians possess the ability to conjure and control fire. A demonstration of their power is shown through their constant flame amongst their body. This flame is controlled by the owner and may move freely amongst themselves. No records say if it is a curse, a life essence, or simply a means of status, this flame is ever burning never going out unless death befalls them. It may be as big as an entire limb or as small as the tip of their finger. Their flames can consist of various colors depending on their lineage and power. This flame can produce heat, but does no harm to the Lunarian controlling it. As the owner grows in strength, this flame may become stronger and brighter while being used in battle to inflict more damage upon their enemies.

Homeland:

Their homeland of Ebonscale containing mountain ranges and active volcanoes is where many are born and live out their lives. Though their origins are shrouded in mystery, even amongst their own people, many named Lunarians are known throughout history for various deeds. Most are known through battles of bloodshed and destruction, often leading to the notion that these people are a bad omen or bring curses to those that stray to close. Others believe they are a sign of power and authority to which they want to obtain and control.

Life Outside of Home:

Because of people being wary of their presence, most take to a life of solidarity and isolation. Seeing a group of Lunarians outside of battle is something not many get to see apart from their homeland in Ebonscale. With their race being predominantly male, it is even more unlikely to see a female Lunarian. Do not be mistaken; however, the females are just as mighty and see just as many battles as their male counterparts. Many do not stay in the same place for too long, not wanting to draw attention to themselves as much as they already do.

These experienced fighters are often called to a life of mercenary work or bounty hunting. Never shy to earn some coin by spilling some blood. Born outside of Ebonscale many are raised in lower class areas due to people's presumptions about them.
