[Patreon Exclusive] Blood Kind | New Player Race Option for Fifth Edition (Patreon)

Elves have a natural tolerance against undead effects. However, there are times when elves are bitten by undead creatures—particularly vampires—when, instead of turning, they contract a passive infection in their blood stream. If a female elf contracts this virus, there is a chance that they can pass it on to their young. Almost immediately, the child is seen for what it is, a blood kind. Blood kind are neither living nor undead, but instead something in between.

Unlike other creatures that possess monstrous bloodlines, blood kind nature is usually seen as a boon instead of a curse. Blood kind excel as warriors, politicians, and sages within elven communities. They are prized for their connection to sorcerous magic and their innate dark powers.
