Relicborn
The Crooked Moon
Relicborn are a skeleton-like species native to Kalero, generally emerging from the numerous tombs and crypts that line the canyon walls of the province. They thrive in a culture of celebration and remembrance, which infuses the very essence of every member of the species. Dancing between the energy of a vivacious party and the serenity of peaceful reflection, this folk holds a deep appreciation for both the living and the dead.
They appear as skeletons decorated with a wide array of vibrant colors, patterns, and styles, their bones encased in a translucent, glowing, substance that provides them with a similar mass and shape to other humanoid species, allowing them to comfortably wear clothing and armor. They also have the ability to grow hair from their skulls, which is often shaped into bombastic styles.
Relicborn Traits
As a Relicborn, you have these special traits.
Dance of Death. As a Bonus Action, you can make a DC 15 Charisma check with the Performance skill or with a Musical Instrument. If you succeed, the next attack roll you make before the end of the turn has Advantage. If you succeed on the check by 5 or more, you can roll one of your Hit Point Dice (without expending it) and gain Temporary Hit Points equal to the number rolled.
Eternal Party. You don’t need to sleep, and you can finish a Long Rest in 4 hours if you spend those hours enjoying revelry such as telling stories or playing music.
Moment of Remembrance. When another creature you can see within 30 feet of you fails a D20 Test, you can take a Reaction to let the target add 1d4 to the total, potentially causing it to succeed. Once this feature changes a failed roll into a success, you can’t use it again until you finish a Short or Long Rest.
Soul of Revelry. You gain proficiency in the Performance skill or with one kind of Musical Instrument.
