Alleozsa (5e Race)
Alleozsa
Alleozsa are Astral beings that use the refraction of light to appear vaguely humanoid.
Physical Description
The Alleozsa are Astral beings in a constant state of flux. Their bodies are always shifting in size, shape, and color. If they are in a brightly-lit area, the Alleozsa may shine in a multitude of colors. At times, they are able to control their colors. In darkness, the Alleozsa are nearly invisible, seen only as a slight blur of blues, purples, or greens.
History
Alleozsa hail from a plane of existence known only to their own kind. After a catastrophic event on their plane, the Alleozsa forced their way into the Forgotten Realms, where they sought refuge in caverns of rare gems. Slowly, the Alleozsa began to integrate into society, some even finding jobs after several years. Though it has been a long time since their break from the plane of their birth, their peregrination fro the Forgotten Realms is still a touchy subject. It is unwise to ask An Alleozsa about this part of their history. At best, they will refuse to explain. At worst, they may lash out at you for prying.
Society
The Alleozsa are extremely driven and independent. Once set upon a task, an Alleozsa will stop at nothing to complete it. When they reach their much-coveted goal, Alleozsa feel no satisfaction, instead immediately seeking out another task to busy themselves. Desperate for a new objective, they become lost and desperate. Should an Alleozsa fail to meet its mark, it may become irritated and distant. Alleozsa have been known to vanish for weeks or even months at a time after a particularly shameful failure.
Alleozsa congregate in places where lots of light reflects and refracts, or in places with no light whatsoever. The Alleozsa are extremely independent, and while they can enjoy the company of one another, they feel compelled to show others that they are competent on their own.
