         1. Cursed Claws has the target succeed on a CON saving throw (DC 8 + CON mod + Proficiency Bonus) or become afflicted with your curse. This does not give lycanthropy.
         2. This race automatically gets common if the background or bonus feat does not grant one.
      5. Deepborn (Aberration): While they are primarily piscine in their anatomy, they can possess features found in a wide variety of sea creatures, including cephalopods and crustaceans. You must always look more fish like than humanoid.
         1. Cannot be reincarnated.
      6. Gnarlborn (Plant): Resembling gnarled trees with glowing faces hollowed into the bark, their individual patterns of branches, moss, and lichen can result in a wide diversity of appearances.

         2. Cannot be reincarnated.

      10. Relicborn (Undead): They appear as skeletons decorated with a wide array of vibrant colors, patterns, and styles, and their bones are encased in a translucent, glowing substance that provides them with a similar mass and shape to other Humanoid species, allowing them to comfortably wear clothing and armor. Some relicborn can even grow hair from their skulls, which is often shaped into bombastic styles.

You must always be spider like in some way and your face cannot be fully human and must have the mandibles appearing in some way with multiple eyes.
      12. Stoneborn (Humanoid): Their stony skin matches the same hue and pattern as the stone they were carved from. While all of their kind have broad wings that carry their dense, heavy bodies, their biology can evoke a wide variety of creatures—including bats, fiends, dragons, birds, angels, dogs, and lizards—often combining features into a chimeric blend. So always stick to the theme of stone like appearances and gargoyle-like shapes.
