In This Book

This book includes the rules for two kinds of versatile heritages and rules for other mixed ancestral heritages.

Borai

Borais are a strange mix of living and undead, often born out of a tragic death or botched resurrection attempt. The etheric, headstrong, and necrotized lineages each represent different ways you could become a borai, either due to a failed attempt at coming back to life, your own unwillingness to die, or necromantic experimentation.

Prismeni

Prismenis are mortals whose bodies or spirits have been influenced by the energies of the Drift. As beings attuned to the Drift, they feel a supernatural urge to travel and experience new things, experiment, and push their limits toward creative pursuits beyond the norm. The prismeni lineages each represent how they attuned to the Drift: Drift-touched were born in the Drift, spectrasoul have a connection to the enigmatic Drift-dwelling beings called spectra, and Triune's chosen were the result of divine intervention.

Mixed Ancestry Heritages

The galaxy has numerous metropolises where people from a wide variety of ancestries and cultures intermingle. Moreover, adventurers of all backgrounds and ancestries often find themselves thrust together and discover that from adversity can come common ground, and even love. As a result, the galaxy is full of people whose bloodline can be traced to at least two different ancestries.
This section also describes how to create a custom mixed ancestry heritage when creating your own world.
