Homebrew Fumetsu Species Details
Fumetsu
The fumetsu are a small ancient race that appeared several hundred years ago. They were a small group banished for accusations of them commiting numerous atrocities; so they ran off and set up within the underdark. Soon after they moved into the cavern the temperature started steadily dropping. It led to the Fumetsu to become cold blooded and due to their years spent in the under dark they gained mutations such as, their hair turning white.
The reason for the temperature dropping us that the originsk group of Fumetsu had wandered into an area controlled by a demon, instead of outright killing the humans it cursed them. Making them vunerable to the heat by lowering their body temperature and decreasing the temerature in that area to negative eighty degrees below zero. The hair and eyes was just evolution taking its course.
