Weaveborn

Weaveborn, a Species/Lineage Option for 5e.

Weaveborn are humanoids who were touched by raw magic in some way during gestation, be it a magical accident, eldritch storm, divine intervention, or some other event. They come from humanoid parents, and look like regular members of their parents’ species, but looks can be deceiving for they are as much children of magic as of their parents. Regardless of their differences, weaveborn can pass for members of their parents’ species as if they were unchanged by their brushes with the weave.

A weaveborn’s natural abilities are shaped by magic itself. So while a weaveborn’s siblings inherit the innate traits common to all of their species, weaveborn develop traits of a different nature… the nature of magic. Regardless of a weaveborn’s parentage, all weaveborn have lifespans of approximately 180 years, and the traits listed inside. Whether their inherited magic first manifests during childhood, adolescence, or not until adulthood differs from one weaveborn to another.
