Lissavaran
Far to the south of Mori, in the lands of grey mist, it is said
that there lives a mysterious humanoid race shrouded in mystery. The lands
of these people are closed to travelers, and strangers who attempt to pass
through regardless often disappear. Though few of their kind travel afar,
they, like every other race, occasionally produce adventurers. It is from
these few individuals that the world knows of Lissavarans.
All Lissavarans have the strange ability to manipulate the
order of space; this is thought by most to be the result of powerful magic known
only to the Lissavarans, which presumably all of their adventurers have mastered
before leaving the land. A few non-Lissavarians remain unconvinced,
suggesting some sort of innate racial trait, or a compact with dark forces that
fuels this ability. The scarcity of Lissavarians and the determination
with which they guard this secret prevents these theories from being better than
wild guesses. Lissavarans go so far as to shroud their faces and cover
every inch of skin when in the presence of strangers or when not in their native
lands. Their eyes and hair invariably appear to be some shade of grey,
ranging from nearly white to nearly black.
- +4 Dexterity, +2 Wisdom, –4 Charisma. Lissavarans are by and large
an uninspired, passionless race, but that quality makes them keen and unbiased
observers.
-
Aberration: Lissavarans are not subject to spells or effects that affect
humanoids
only, such as
charm
person or
dominate person.
-
Like most aberrations, lissavarans possess
Darkvision out to 60 feet.
- Lissavaran base land speed is 30 feet.
- Medium: As Medium creatures, lissavarans have no special bonuses or penalties
due to their size.
- Decapitation (Su): Lissavarans have a profound appreciation for the
structure of things, and call upon this innate understanding to deal
devastating blows. All slashing weapons a lissavaran wields are treated
as though effectively
vorpal, in addition to any other qualities they may
possess.
- Detect Teleportation (Su): Lissavarans automatically and continually
detect teleportation in a 60' radius. This ability is otherwise
identical to the
detect teleportation psionic power.
- Reposition (Sp): Lissavarans can instinctively manipulate the fabric of reality
to alter their position. They have the
spell-like ability to use
dimension door (caster level equal to hit dice) once every 1d4 rounds.
- Lissavaran receive
Stand
Still as a bonus feat, even if they do not meet the prerequisites.
- Automatic Languages: Common, Draconic. Bonus Languages: Auran, Aquan, Elven,
Ignan, and Terran.

- Favored Class: Fighter. A multiclass lissavaran’s fighter levels do not count when
determining whether or not he takes an experience point penalty.
- Level Adjustment: +7
