Creature Type

You are an Elemental

Unnatural Nature

You don’t need to eat, drink, or breathe.

Darkvision

You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light and in darkness as if it were dim light. You discern colors in that darkness in full color.

Shadow Body

Your body is covered by heavy clothing but underneath you are just conscious energy from the Chaos Energy. Using a bonus action you can leave the clothing giving you stealth advantage and attacks made against you are made at disadvantage, but risking vulnerability dying from the light, for every turn you end in the light you take 1d8 radiant damage.

Resistance to Metal and Fury

Due your body not having a material body and made from conscious elemental fury, you have resistance to cold, fire, lightning, piercing, slashing and bludgeoning from non-magical weapons.

Chaotic Elemental

When you cast a spell that does fire, cold, force, or lightning damage you can change the damage to another type of those options. You can do this once per Long Rest.

Magis were the conscious creation of the chaos energy created within the roots of Arcanus. They appear as shadow-like energy without any form but over time collect pieces of clothing and fabric to cover and protect their shadow body. Many choose to stay beneath Arcanus tending to the roots and gaining elemental knowledge. But some choose to find a life above equipping themselves in a large hat and clothing to protect themselves from sunlight. Ones that go above sign contracts that keep them within university and academy grounds to study the elemental magic of the nation they reside in but some escape those shackles and choose to travel the world hiding from the nations militaries and bounty hunters. The magi tend to face prejudice from the many elementals of Arcanus, believing that magi’s are an omen of upcoming calamity and chaos. When a magi finds an ally they trust they will hide in their shadows and even bend the fabric of their universe to assist them in their goals being in it for the journey. A Magis death is sacred in their culture as if they were to pass on from their practically immortal life their eyes turn to potent magical stones imbued with their memories, many place these in homes as echos of their fallen and even Magitek constructs as reincarnated Magis more protected from the solar and radiant energies. But others who don’t experience a death around their cultural home are sought out as powerful artifacts thought to bring a Magis potent elemental power into magical technology.
