Go with a barebones race description, like the harengon in Witchlight. That way, DMs can more easily use the d'jomar for other kinds of settings. For example, a setting might nit have a farrealms but use Aberrations for other things.The setting assumptions, like the D'jomar cultures and whether elves and dwarves exist or not are useful for knowing how to fit the race in Forgotten Realms and for mining ideas. If for FR, maybe mention how FR populations havent really been aware of them.Some DMs are squeamish about monstrous characters, such as preferring a more Tolkienesque esthetic. Maybe create a new cantrip which some of the D'jomar can choose for their race cantrip. This cantrip would be a diguise to allow the character to "pass"as "normal". Heh, it reminds me of Gary in the scifi tv Legends, whose glasses make him appear human, but is an Aberration-like alien when he takes them off. The cantrip would be like the changeling shapeshift but more limited, only for one alternate form. Only some d'jomar would know the cantrip.I will write up the cantrip in an other post, to critique it separately.</blockquote>
