Difference between revisions of "Viscanti"

The [[viscanti]] are unlike most of the other races because they did not originate from the fragmentation of an [[:Category:Elder Gods|Elder God]]. Rather, the viscanti came into being as victims of the [[Taint]] at the time of the Fall of the [[Holy Celestine Empire|Celestine Empire]]. The viscanti were originally members of the other native [[Lusternia|Lusternian]] races who were directly caught in the Taint and whose forms became twisted, just as the land became twisted. Through years of interbreeding, they have become recognized as a race unto themselves. Generally, they are of a demonic appearance though some viscanti retain vestigial characteristics of other races, such as wings of [[trill|trills]] (though bat-like and ineffective for flying) or pointed ears of the [[elfen]]. The greater viscanti have the ability to breathe poison gas. Although most reside in the [[Magnagora]] and neighboring tainted land, a few viscanti have been known to become "reformed" and live in other civilized areas.
