Starblessed (5e Race)

Star Redheads

The starblessed are really alike humans, with some notable characteristics. Their skin is as white as a star, it even irradiates a little. Their hair is fiery, almost like if they were redhead, but with flames instead of hair. Their eyes have two pupils each, one centered and one in the corner. one of the pupils obligatorily yellow, and the other one can range to all visible colors. They are warm to the touch, and their teeth never rot. Their blood is red but, much like their hair, it has a fiery tone to it. Neutron starblesseds do not irradiate but they still keep their colors.

Star Shards

It all started when a Star exploded. Within that star was a fragment know as "Bless" that could make one a part of the cosmos. That fragment fell into one of the many planets colonized by the human race, changing their biology forever. The star fused with their bodies, but they didn´t turn into cosmic aberrations. Instead, they just acquired some strange features. They became as hot as a star inside their bodies, being unfazed by heat or light, and they became innately adepts to magic. Although some of them burned their star energy and became neutron starblesseds, starblesseds do not explode like a normal star life-cycle, instead they die normally like humans. Their species changed due to their light, and so they gained an extra pair of pupils so that they can see better while in light. As said before, neutron starblesseds are burned, this happens due to a magical overheat that turs all of their magic into muscle, granting them a calmer demeanor and control over their gravity.

Many rulers came

The starblessed were a colony of humans in another planet, so their society was like a human one. Many great rulers are seen in their history, most of them were magical starblesseds, although some neutron starblesseds once ruled over them. Although, all of that is history, their rulers are nothing more but mere words now. After some time, a witch called Cuprum found a way to absorb stars and use their power as magic. With that, she took control of the starblessed and made all of them trained soldiers and colonizers, thus starting the starblessed empire. Many disliked her, but she didn´t care at all, after all she was stronger than all of them combined. Some starblessed fled to other planets hoping some day they could strike her off the throne. Cuprum, however, is not evil. She´s just a visionary, trying to get the better of her people, even if they hate her. She´s naïve and doesn´t know other ways, so she did things the only way she knew. Of course, no starblessed know this, so they are in a forever state of desire of freedom.
