Homebrew Asphodeltan Kalashtar Species Details
The Aspholdeltan meadows are a sprawling expanse of grassy fields nestled in the plateaus of the western mountains. A life so far away from the petty squabbles of civilisation has led the people of the meadows to lives of introspection, and a deep sense of spirituality has developed in the area. Over time, the small mountainside community has forged a profound connection with the plane of dreams, and some of the dreamscape's more curious-minded denizens have, with invitation, latched onto human vessels to experience our world through. Most, if not all, of Asphodeltan society is now made up of these dual-souled beings, come to be known as Kalashtar. All Kalashtar have an otherworldly presence to them, and many exhibit some of the physical features of their dream spirit companion. These features are as varied as the dreamscape itself; some have spectral mushrooms sprouting across their backs, some have moth-like antennas glowing faintly over their heads, some just shimmer slightly when they move.
