Anamesa
Anamesa (ANA-may-sa) look like normal humanoids, with the exception of brightly colored eyes that always stand out. Despite their appearance, they are not of this realm and not of this planar system. For lack of better terms, an anamesa's consciousness originates from a different dimension. No matter where they are, something simply doesn't click.
Anamesa often feel like strangers in their own bodies, because whatever body they inhabit is not actually theirs. While their mind comes from a certain realm, their body resides in another, causing a disconnect. Some anamesa are born into their bodies, while others wake up one day in a different body, in a different place, with no memory of their past life - the only clue being a constant feeling of not belonging. Most anamesa never realize its true cause and live entire lives while this anxiety hangs over their heads. Most also have a pervasive longing to go home, even though they don't know what that entails.
Anamesa can inhabit any humanoid body, from human to elf to orc and everything in between. Although your physical race can differ, you gain no benefit from whatever you may choose. However, you should still consider your physical race and the society you originate from when deciding factors such as your extra language.
