The Blessed Ones (5e Race)

The Blessed Ones

Physical Description

The Blessed Ones look exactly like humans.

History

The Blessed Ones originated from one human cleric, a prodigy who was able to make the gods do any one thing for them once per week. This human asked the gods to bless their child with superior genes so that that they and their children would live long healthy lives. The gods heard his request and did as he asked at the cost of stripping the human of their clerical powers and the human accepted the deal.

Society

The Blessed Ones much like humans can be found anywhere but there aren't that many of them. They're generally accepted in society since not many people can tell the difference between them and humans

The Blessed Ones Names

The Blessed Ones have the same naming convention as humans do, adopting names of nearly every language, cultural region, and lineage. The names are typically separated by gender, and usually exist as a complicated mixture of several smaller "root-words" that allow the name to have meaning, but the names themselves vary intensely in construction. Some are very simple, some are very complex; many have intricate meaning, others are just names.

Male: Adbavi, John, Jack, James, Michael, Ivan, Leon, Gavin, Sanat, Belas, Benicio, Yagno, Roman,

Female: Elizabeth, Aubrey, Edisa, Zefla, Roca
