Reborn
The Reborn are an enigma to much of the world. When they were first encountered they were thought to be members of the undead. When word spread of the undead in the sands of the east, it drew both fear and curiosity. It wasn't until a group of Archmagis from White Stone Harbor ventured into the sands that they pieced together tales that were lost to time. Centuries ago, several tribes of man and elves ventured into the deep deserts to discovered what lied in these unknown lands. When none returned it was assumed they died. These Archmagis learned that through magic and science that the tribes of man were able to extend their lifespan across countless decades.
