Cloaked[edit]
Physical Description[edit]
The cloaked are a race of intelligent living shadows, always wearing hooded cloaks/robes, and masks. they are often mistaken for cultists, due to their aesthetic choices. unsurprisingly, they often side with liches, wizards, illithids, and other such beings, due to their knowledge-hoarding tendencies.
History[edit]
The cloaked were summoned into this realm by a group of sorcerers attempting to make contact with something beyond this reality, and when they finally succeeded, the cloaked began manifesting around the more magically-attuned places in the underdark.
Society[edit]
the cloaked have a symbiotic society that meshes well with most civilised societies. the opposite can be said about them attempting to adapt to more barbaric civilisations.
Cloaked Names[edit]
These creatures imitate the names of races they dwell near.
