Pseudoimmortal (5e Race)

Psuedoimmortals

“	Double check everything, the receivers, the trolls blood, the sigil,... if everything is ready, let us begin the ritual.	”
—Regis Landem, creator of the first PsuedoImmortals.

Physical Description

Psuedoimmortals are humanoids who stand about 5 to 6 feet tall, have fair skin with small deep dark purple cracks all along their body except for their head, and eyes ranging in color from light blue to dark purple. With clothes covering their body, most try to pass off as humans, if their strangely colored eyes are not a giveaway. Their body is considered to be magically imbued, providing them with extraordinary senses and healing.

History

Psuedoimmortals were created when a fool hearty magus was gravely ill and was looking for ways to extend his life. After years of experimenting, he was convinced he had found a way to make himself immortal and only needed to test it on a few test subjects. The ritual was completed, but the magus was left greatly depleted and sickly after finishing the experimented. Those experimented on overpowered and killed him only to flee into the world, where they have since grown in population and spread out all around the world.

Society

You can find small communities of psuedoimmortals living peacefully in towns blending in with the populace if they choose to cover the cracks on their skin. Others may be found traveling and trying to find purpose in life with their strange body, undecided as to whether it is a curse or a blessing.
