The Broken ones (3.5e Race)

=Many years ago the rulers of an ancient kingdom designed a weapon with this weapon they planned to build an empire but something went wrong and instead of being a simple tool of destruction this weapon rended reality. The inevitables tracked down the rulers and all of their people and cursed them making so that them and all of their descendants would live under a curse. This curse rended them and made them crippled half of what they used to be. But Boccob took pity on them and offered them a choice work with me find information and knowledge and I will grant you an ability few others can boast. The Broken ones agreed and have been serving Boccob ever since finding knowledge and returning once a millennia to send the knowledge to Boccob
