[QUOTE="generic, post: 7574327, member: 6923088"] Here are some from my worlds: The Hchrena: To be a child of the old gods, that, surely, is what it means to be a Hchrena. The Hchrena, who look much like humans, but with skin of wood and leaf, are the progeny of the most ancient Treants, who are said to have given their seeds to an ancient society of Human Druids, who then cultivated these seeds within their own bodies, creating the Hchrena. Hchrena reproduce by burying seeds that females "give birth" to. Those seeds then grow into adult Hchrena, leaving all Hchrena children unseen except for a patch of leaves or moss which might poke out of the ground. The Nlak: Beyond their bloodied, toothless smiles, the Nlak hide cunning tongues. Legend says that they were created by a wizard, or perhaps a god, to be the perfect liars. Their ability to deceive is, however, greatly reduced by their strange appearance and the wariness it excites in others. Nlak have no teeth, and their mouths seem to constantly spill blood. Furthermore, the eyes of Nlak are a vile mauve, and their pupils bear odd, noticeable scars that seem to flicker like flames. Of course, not all Nlak are evil, but it is in their psychological nature to lie. Thus, a Nlak hero must constantly struggle against the urge to deceive. The Nimrax: With blood of lighting, veins of metal, and a foul cybernetic form, the Nimrax are a nightmarish species of magical cyborgs composed of horrific technologies, who recycle organs and metal in order to create yet more Nimrax. It is said that, at the core of each Nimrax, there lies a Soul Sphere, the imprisoned soul of a humanoid. [/QUOTE]
