Planetouched, Genasi (Ooze)

Anonymous's picture
Personality: Said to be an evolved form of a mephit or sprite; they simply apologize for being at all. Oozai are the most self-depreciating, self-esteem challenged of all the genasi and can even overwhelm a beaker with depression. Desperate to get off their home plane but want to stay out of the way of other people (especially the Baatezu since they are commonly mistaken for lemurs and enslaved as well as the Tanar’ri since they kill them on sight) they tend towards cities, heading for the downtrodden or abandoned areas. All that being said they still crave relations but think they are a burden.By: Todd FinchImported from a previous version of Planewalker.com
Physical Description: Generally of human height but saggy and fat. Skin color looks light brown to a nauseating blend of green and yellow. Eyes look like normal human eyes but have droopy bags for eyelids and continually seem to weep or have discharge in the corners (which can crust up if not taken care of). Some Oozai have the following features: · A sticky or greasy film all about the skin. · Consistently have moss, lichens, and fungi growing in/on their folds. Regular scrubbing or washing will remove them temporarily, but will always return. · A constant smell of rot and decay surrounds their body. Any aroma to avoid this will mingle and make it worse (perfume). · Limbs/bones have more flex to them. They have a rippling effect when struck.
Relations: Highly apologetic about being themselves. They love to be around people but feel as though they are a burden, which, consequently, makes them avoid contact with other races. Seldom engage in battle choosing to avoid confrontation altogether, they live depressing lonely lives taking glee in anyone who enjoys their company.
Alignment: Lawful Good
Lands: Can live anywhere but like to leave there home as soon as possible.
Religion: Will worship any god, especially ones that can make their appearance less burdensome.

Adventurers: Most Oozai adventure beyond their realm to find a more suitable place to call kip (for them at least). They look for a place they can call home or a being that they can serve instead of burden.
Racial Traits: Oozai Genasi have the following racial abilities: · +4 Con (tough with the bendy parts and all), -4 Chr, -2 Wis (not the strongest of will since they bow to kindness easily). · Half damage from all blunt trauma (be it weapon, punching or falling). · +2 to escape artist, tumbling and grappling checks. · Toughness feat for free. · Favored class: Cleric or Rouge
