Editing Aetherborn (section)

==Dungeons & Dragons==
Aetherborn were given rules as a PC race option in [[Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition]] via the free online article "Plane Shift: Kaladesh".

::Ability Score Increase: +2 Charisma, +1 to two other ability skills of your choice
::Size: Medium
::Speed: 30 feet
::Vision: Darkvision 60 feet
::Born of Aether: Resistance to Necrotic damage
::Menacing: Proficiency in Intimidation

"The Dark Gift" is a transformation that an aetherborn can undergo, using the rules for Inventing & Manufacting Devices to discover and apply the various rare ungents and reagents needed for the transformation. Once successful, the Aetherborn gains the Drain Life racial feature:

::Drain Life: You can make a natural attack that inflicts 1d6 Necrotic damage on a hit, restoring lost hitpoints equal to the damage inflicted. If you go 7 or more days without using Drain Life, your hit point maximum is reduced by 1d6 points per week without feeding. This reduction can only be removed by using Drain Life and completing a long rest.
