Homebrew Batfolk Species Details

We had been lost for weeks by the time we found the mausoleum. We'd thought it abandoned, a home only for restless souls. However they were finding a way in we hoped would prove some egress from this realm. Instead, we found the keepers of those halls, looming faces that chittered and screeched after us as we fled. I have ventured into many bat infested cave in my days as an adventurer, but nothing has gripped my heart like the sweep of wind as one of those bat folk descending from a twisting shadow.

Many bat folk find themselves keeping up the work at the Hall of Shadows within the Shadowfell. A twisting, labyrinthine mausoleum, here the keepers tend to the shadows of those deceased on the material plane. With hearing as keen as theirs, they are amongst the few races that can hear the lilting song and sagas some of the shades sing. Stories of lives now passed, tales of worlds and plots beyond. Here, in an unliving archive, the keepers of the Hall of Shadows tend to the shades that flit through, listening to the memories before they mingle and find a final rest in the Fell.
