The Returned: Cursed Race

[astralInferno]

Sometimes, the greatest protectors and enemies of nature are resurrected when they die, rewarded or cursed with power in Eyal's name. They are the returned.

+2 Str, Wil, Cun. -2 Magic. Low Life Rating (reduced by another one by their first talent.)
Have access to Cursed Body and Cursed Aura from chargen. (Also have Undead Heritage, if you have that addon too, and Undead Heritage will not allow Returned as a heritage.)

Racial Talents:
Rebirth: Passively grants a negative HP threshold, like blurred mortality. Activate for a short duration regeneration effect.

Dismal Aura: A Gloom-like costless sustain, this will occasionally either silence nearby foes, reduce their defence, or reduce their resists. (It also benefits from the gloom mindpower bonus.)

Hateful Power: +damage/resist pen for common elements they wield. (Cursed and Wilder elements, plus arcane because of manaburn)

Eyal's Judgement: Mana Clash everything in a moderate radius. Including you, if you use dirty arcane magic...

Available here!

Let's give a big hand to Rexorcorum for making sprites for the race!

Rex has now gifted female returned with scraggly but beautiful hair!

I've also stopped you being able to say no to cursed body. Cursed aura is marginally less easy.

Nice addon, I really like the bit of background you've given them. It's good to see Eyal recycling both her enemies and her champions.

There's just one small problem that I can see so far, the +2 strength is actually -2 strength. All the other stats are correct.

(angry muttering)
Fixed. Thanks.

Glad you like them!

Sooo I basically think of this as the most OP thing I've made yet, especially alongside Undead Heritage. So, ah. They just lost 10% exp.
