Homebrew Eein-Lin Species Details

The Eein-Lin are an ancient race that is has remained hidden from most of the world for generations. Every Eein-Lin has two forms; their unicorn form, which differs from pure unicorns only in coloration and their humanoid form.

Unicorn form: While pure unicorns are all white with golden or silver horns, Eein-Lin can have a wide range of mane, coat, and horn colors. There are very few Eein-Lin who have unicorn coloration.

Humanoid form: In their humanoid form, all Eein-Lin have the same colors that they have in their unicorn form, except for their horns. In their humanoid forms, their horn is small and barely visible on their forehead. Their ears are slightly pointed, but on the side of their head, like most humanoids. Their mane grows down their back slightly and their tail  grows out of their tailbone, but their manes are long enough to hide the start of their tail. Their hooves become typical humanoid hands and feet, though the nails are slightly harder than typical nails.

Eein-Lin get +2 to their Dexterity score and +2 to their Charimsa score. 

They have Keen Senses because of their connection to nature and Magical Ancestry due to their connection to unicorns.

The Eein-Lin have remained hidden for so long because of their ability to blend into society and be mistaken for half-elves or other half-human creatures. Because of their ability to shape-shift, the Eein-Lin can walk at a speed of 40 ft and swim at a speed of 20 ft.
