Wretched

Summary

​

            The Wretched are any primary race that has been the subject of a curse resulting in a change or deformity to their bodies. 

 

History/Information

 

           The Wretched are the rare result of a being or beings being cursed with a bodily disfiguring spell that is so powerful it is incapable of being undone. The Ragnochi are a prime example of Wretched who managed to multiply to such great extents that they are now a primary race. This achievement is so rare though that it is almost unheard of, and all other Wretched will be anywhere from to singular creatures to small communities depending on how many were originally cursed. As for genetics, curse genetics are particularly weak, so unless a Wretched breeds with another Wretched of the same type, they will not produce another Wretched Through generations of breeding within the same wretched subrace, the genetics will become stronger until they are akin to a primary race (You cannot make a primary race, only up to small communities will be permitted). ​

​

Umbraborne

Physical Attributes

​

General

            Umbraborne are a half-breed race that is a mix of Wynorms and Dark Elves, but that were cursed to have an even further altered appearance and an extreme sensitivity to light.

​

Skin

            Umbraborne have primarily Dark Elf complexions, but can have Wynorm skin color possibilities as well though it is much more rare. 

​

Eyes

           Umbraborne can have any eye color, but have black sclera. Their irises glow slightly.

​

Hair

           Umbraborne hair is dark, shadowy, and flows like water in the air. It can be black, dark purple, or dark blue.

​

Body

           Umbraborne have mostly Dark Elf features, but can have Wynorm features such as Wynorm scales scattered along their body, Wynorm claws or horns, or Wynorm wings. They will have shadowy crystals growing from their bodies, typically in clusters, due to their curse. They will also have an extreme sensitivity to sunlight, causing their skin to burn and bubble when in direct sunlight. 

​

Age

           They are immortal in that they stop aging after they reach maturity at 200 years old. This is due to their curse.

​

History/Information

​

           A group of Dark Elves and a group of Wynorms sought to create a more perfect race by breeding with each other. They wanted to create a race that had the strength of a Wynorm but the dexterity of a Dark Elf. But in the process, they angered two incredibly powerful beings. One was the Goddess of the Fae, Kaelia, who was angered by the idea of someone using her beautiful creatures’ bloodlines to create an abomination that they claimed would somehow be better than her races that she had already created?! “Preposterous!” She was furious, but couldn’t levy a punishment herself as it was forbidden by Shai, the God of Death and Fate and the head of the council of Gods. So, determined to punish their “insolence”, she turned to the dragon lord of shadow, Duskmaw, to do it for her. 

Duskmaw was also angered by the brazen actions of the Dark Elves and Wynorms, and wished to punish them for trying to dirty the blood of the dragons’ descendants with the purity of Fae blood. He also held the opinion that Wynorms were already as perfect as a humanoid could be, and that trying to make a “more perfect” race would be spitting in the face of the Dragons that created the Wynorms. So, it was easy for Kaelia to convince Duskmaw to put a curse on the newly created race. There was no exchange or deal necessary, they both had a common goal. So Kaelia lended him a fraction of her power in secret, and Duskmaw corrupted and cursed their newly born race. 

​

Culture

 

Religion

            Not knowing the actual reasons for their cursed forms, Umbraborne have been known to worship Kaelia as well as the God of Dragons, Eroese. They generally avoid worshiping Morket as many often view him to be the reason for their cursed forms given the shadowy aspects of their being.

​

Family 

           Umbraborne like to stick together in their own communities, and due to this, they often stay in large family units of up to 10 people. They are still too rare to be an official race as recognized by the URA, but they are steadily growing in number. 

​

Traditions 

            Umbraborne keep the same tradition as their Wynorm ancestors: if someone wrongs a Wynorm or their family, then that Wynorm is required to give equal treatment to the one that wronged them; even if it includes murder. But they also follow Fae holidays, such as Thaesoli (the fertility holiday) and Ari’Aul’Hrive (a holiday, meaning Spring in Winter, celebrating the beauty of Winter and the efforts to bring the joy of Spring to the dead of Winter. It is often marked by families gathering to burn large decorated logs in the hearth while drinking a traditional spiced wine and sharing stories of years past).

​

Fighting 

​

Powers 

            They have shadow manipulation powers and it is a 50/50 chance on whether or not they get a breath weapon ability. If they do have the ability to use a breath weapon, then they will breathe a shadowy fire that burns slightly faster than regular fire and feels extremely cold to the touch.

​

Preferred Fighting Style

            Preferred fighting style depends upon the individual.

​

Weaknesses

Umbraborne are weak to sunlight and sun-blessed weaponry. Their crystals also act as weak points as although they are extremely difficult to shatter, if one does shatter them, they will explode in a showdy fire, burning everything around it including the Umbraborne.​​​​

​

Scolojin

Physical Attributes

​

General

            Scolojin are a race of female only half Oni, half centipede that were originally Oni cursed to have giant centipede lower halves.

​

Skin

           Scolojin can have any skin color. 

​

Eyes

           Scolojin can have any eye color, and have unnaturally big eyes, but have one solid eye color just like Undlings/Oni (no eye whites or visible pupils).

​

Hair

          Scolojin can have any hair color, but black is the most common. 

​

Body

           Scolojin have large pointed ears that are generally bigger than their heads, and can have up to 5 horns (but some are born without any). Their horns tend to look like the antennae of centipedes. They are carnivores, and thus have only sharp teeth (some maintain their Oni origins and have long fangs and tusks, both of which stick out over their lips, but others don’t). 

           Scolojin are only ever female, no exceptions. They don’t find it obscene to be without clothes on their lower half because nothing inappropriate is visible.

           Scolojin have a lower half that can be anywhere from 3’0” – 20’0” long. 

​

Age

          Scolojin have a maximum lifespan of 600 years.

​

History/Information

​

          Scolojin were originally a group of Oni, both male and female, that incurred the wrath of the Sun Goddess, Theia, by abandoning their worship of her because they believed themselves to be too beautiful to worship her, viewing themselves as the objects worthy of their praise instead. Theia, furious that anyone would not only abandon her, let alone because they thought they were more beautiful than her, the Sun Goddess, cursed them with disfigurement. She wanted them to be hideous and undesirable, but also maintain an air of femininity because they were to be her creations afterall. So, she made them all female Scolojin. 

          Now with their curse, they tend to live out of sight of other races, preferring to stay hidden in caves or underground. They live solitary lives, only usually venturing out to find a mate of another race. 

​

Culture

 

Religion

           Now terrified of Theia, Scolojin are some of her most devout followers. Even from inside the caves and underground dwellings in which they live, they still commit to weekly worship to praise her for fear of a worse punishment if they do not. 

​

Family 

           Scolojin have very small family units, usually only them and maybe a child if they were successful in securing a partner of another race. Getting a partner of another race is mandatory if a Scolojin wishes to procreate due to them all being female. Scolojin have a guarantee of giving birth to another Scolojin when they do mate, though, unlike the typical genetic rules where it's a 50/50 on which race the baby is born as. They are still too rare to be an official race as recognized by the URA, and they tend to stay few in  number. 

​

Traditions 

            Remembering their Oni traditions, Scolojin tend to keep their hair long and wear it in braids with ribbons. They also have a tradition similar to the tattooing of the runes that Oni do, but instead of runes, a sun symbol in varying styles depending on the person/family is tattooed on the nape of their neck.

​

Fighting 

​

Powers 

           Scolojin have an innate magic of *every* magic type, but their fire spells are particularly powerful. They also have a resistance to fire; it takes a lot of heat to be able to burn them.

​

Preferred Fighting Style

            Preferred fighting style depends upon the individual.

​

Weaknesses

            Scolojin are weak to ice magic.
