Devilkyn
- Infernal Potential. You can cast certain spells spell once per long rest based on the demon donor's soul. If undetermined, you can cast the thaumaturgy cantrip. Starting at 3rd level, you can cast the hellish rebuke spell as a 2nd-level spell once per long rest. Starting at 5th level, you can cast the darkness spell once per long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells.
- Wielders of Magic. You are the only race capable of using magic or attuning to magical weapons. Any magical weapon you wield gains an additional +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls.
- Hellish Drive. You gain temporary hit points equal to your Charisma modifier whenever you finish a long rest. At 5th level, this feature also triggers when you reduce a hostile creature to 0 hit points.
Marked by infernal souls, wielders of terrifying power.
The Devilkyn, known by many names—Helvetti in Cadenaterra and Damary in the eastern parts of Europa—are the result of an intermingling of human and demon souls, cursed or blessed by their infernal link. Their very existence is steeped in conflict and suspicion, for they are the only ones capable of wielding magic or harnessing the might of magical weapons. This unique gift sets them apart, feared and revered as either harbingers of destruction or reluctant saviors.
Devilkyn are not always recognizable - their fiendish traits only sometimes materialize in eerie physical traits such as glowing eyes, subtle horns, or shadowy auras. While they struggle to control the infernal power within, many embrace their unique abilities, seeking to carve their own path in a world that both shuns and depends on their magic.
