D&D 5E viable playable species based on medieval myths.

[Shades of Eternity]

This is for the elderberry tales, the world I'm building, but they should be usable in any dungeons and dragons game.

I kept the attribute adjustments, but honestly, if it doesn't work, remove them and use the new system.

for starters, i always loved the talking skeletons of myth so decided to see if I cold make it viable.

(Fun fact, there is a ton of necromancy in medieval culture. they just call them relics).

then redid gnomes to represent the element of earths.

For the representation of fire, decided to made salamanders humanoid (and honestly the pic is adorable)

air is of course the Slyphs. still think it needs something.

and finally the undine
another one that feels like it needs tweaking.
enjoy.

edit: also curious how to integrate any of the species in the Monsters of the Multiverse into this world. open to any and all suggestions.
