About this transformation

Borais are an unusual form of corporeal undead. Instead of being a dead body animated by negative energy, a borai has a mostly dead body that retains the smallest sliver of its soul. The two are inexorably bound, as the body draws vitality from the soul while the soul uses the body to remain on the Material Plane. Some borais are the results of partially botched resurrection attempts, either magical or technological, while others were people who were simply too stubborn to fully die when their time came.

Features

Darkvision

Borais can see up to Far range in the dark.

Deathly

For effects targeting creatures by type, borais count as both their original ancestry and undead (whichever effect is worse). They are immune to life/negative energy damage and gain a +1d4 to the rolls for saving throw against disease, exhaustion, fatigue, mind-affecting effects, paralysis, poison, sleep effects, and stunning.

Transformation questions

  1. How did you first die, and how has that death affected your view on life?
  2. How were you brought back from the dead, and how did the process change your body?
  3. Someone brought you back from death. Who were they, and how do you feel about this person and what they did to you?
  4. In the brief time you passed through the veil of death, you saw something that changed you forever. What was it?
