Darkened NarmenBack to Top
Race Points: 19
Darkened narmen are those descendant from the orginal New World sect of Narmens who, following the end of their long isolation, determined to outright reject Zovilla and delve into the forbidden magics. These individuals found a patron, named N'morahlw'nafh, in their pursuit who granted them demonic powers.

Physical Description: Taller than humans, elves, or orcs, Narmen stand at an average of 7 feet tall with a build similar to an elf who has spent too much time sitting at their desk. Narmen have coal black skin with a network of scars that vaguely resemble arcane runes, a remnant of their ancient powers. Due to their arcane modification, Narmen have lack all hair and possess a single long tusk jutting straight out of their mouth which they are quite familiar with not running into things, much to the perplexing of other races.
The runes on a a darkened narmen's skin, that are only scars on their brethren, glow with a dim purple light. Their bodies have become more fit and nimble. A third eye has appeared on their foreheads that can see magical energies and allows access to certain powerful scrying rituals.
Society: Most darkened narmen are members of the New World sect of the First Amospian Empire. The New World sect retains the rigid hierarchy of the other sects of narmen though while in other sects the hierarchy is formed from legal precedent and the memebers follow their betters out of loyalty, narmen of the New World sect obey out of fear, with the stronger forcing the weaker to obey.
Relations: Darkened narmen are feared and/or hated by most others though the darkened narmen pay them little heed. Content to work amongst themselves in growing their powers.
Alignment and Religion: Darkened narmen tend toward the evil and chaotic sides of the chart in comparison to the other types of narmen though there are plenty of exceptions and while they are radical in comparison, the most common alignment of them is true neutral. Most darkened narmen pay at least some respect to N'morahlw'nafh, the void god who granted them this form.

Alial ObjectBack to Top
Alial races have (generally suppressed) magical energy that infuses a specific part of their body. Though this energy may be present in the object before the creature's death, alial objects are non-magical until after the creature's death and only acquire their abilities if they are still part of the creature when they die. This body part must be hard like bone or a gemstone. This object can otherwise take many different forms.
Alial objects contain a significantly strong impression of the owner's identity. Whether or not the creature is deceased, alial objects can be used as a focus for any spell that requires identifying a creature, such as scrying, to perfectly identify the owner. The owner also receives no saves against such spells.
Alial objects can also be incorporated into specific type of magic items, granting bonuses but potentially changing their effect. Alial objects do not impart their weapon properties or spell modifiers unless stated otherwise or incorporated into an item that uses them.
Description
A darkened narman's alial object takes the form of the tusk which protrudes from their mouth called an alidens. When removed, this tusk can be used as a one-handed melee weapon that deals 1d6 points of piercing damage and requires exotic weapon proficiency. The tusk receives its weapon properties as well, though an alial object only has the creature's weapon properties if it was part of the creature upon their death.
