Chaos Born (3.5e Race)

Chaos Born

Personality

Chaos Born are born insane. They traverse the Elemental Plane of Chaos doing what ever they please. Having no need to eat, sleep, or breath, they are constantly in motion. They are prone to doing dangerous things to relieve the constant sense of boredom that they feel. Each Chaos Born has a magic artifact that works best for them made out of void metal, they are very attached to these items and will go to great lengths to locate them.

Physical Description

While on the Plane of Chaos they are formless. They appear as a dark shadow with wings. While on the material plane they appear to be a medium sized human with four large wings on their backs. They appear exactly like what ever race they choose when leaving the Plane of Chaos. Their bodies are made out of a physical manifestation of Chaos. This makes dissolution happen around them. As such when their bodies are destroyed their essence is sent back to the plane of Chaos.

Relations

Chaos Born powers are run through bloodline. The closer they are in relation to Chaos the more powerful they are. They are the children of other Chaos Born and Chaos Elementals. In order to permanently kill a Chaos Elemental they have to kill that elemental's access to Chaos. In this case their mother. They generally don't interact as a whole with other races, and they honestly couldn't care less about any other races.

Alignment

Always True Chaos. Which means that they shift between Chaotic Good, Neutral, and Evil depending on how they're feeling that day.

Lands

Anywhere interesting. If there are no wild attractions it is very rare for a Chaos Born to appear there. Chaos Born go everywhere, on every plane. Therefore they have built up a resistance to the affect of different planes because the Plane of Elemental Chaos has traits of all other planes at some point or another.

Religion

Most Chaos Born worship the very element of Chaos.

Language

They speak a language from the plane of Chaos.

Names

Their names are usually chosen by the species that they come out of the Plane of Chaos nearest.

• Elemental (Chaotic, Extraplanar): As Elementals Chaos Born do not need to eat, sleep, drink, or breathe. All Energy is regained after a 1 hour trip back to the elemental plane of Chaos. If this is not done at least once every 53 hours the Chaos Born starts to suffer consequences such as losing resistances, damage reduction, Regeneration, Spell Resistance, and ability bonuses at a rate of the DM's digression. That being said just like Mind Control it can be difficult to keep Chaos Born from their home plane. At the same rate as their mind control difficulties the would be keeper must make saves to keep the Chaos Born rooted to this dimension.
