Welcome to Curious Quill, an original content resource for d20 roleplaying.
The Quill has spent a lot of time describing the people and beasts of fantasy realms, in the land of Taluma but could be in any land. For the summer season we are going to look at some Expanded Rules options for 5e that for the Taluma setting, but can be used in any campaign.
Mortals:Eidolons
The Quill already spent a season each on the ‘civilized’ people including: dwarves, elves, urchins (smalfolk) and orcs; along with humans. There are other mortal beings across the land. Mortals are considered to be sentient people who have a finite existence and are subject to death: they are not immortal.
The most powerful mortals are the eidolons. Eidolons are divine beings that are not immortal. They can be corporeal or incorporeal and often represent or are the manifestation of preternatural essences like the elements or radiant power.
