The Faermatra’az possess the incredible ability to shapeshift, adopting not only the appearance, but also the voice and mannerisms of other people. Beyond this, they have a range of fascinating magical defenses and abilities to ensure that they can accomplish whatever clandestine tasks are set before them.

Created using the highest cycles of magic by the toweringly arrogant Archmages of the Ethernic Empire, the Faermatra’az were molded into the ultimate tools for espionage, assassination, and infiltration. Unbeknownst to their creators, the shapshifters eventually became so intelligent and intuitive that they developed into a race of sentient hominids with desires and ambitions of their own. Finally freed when the apocalyptic Woe of Ruin destroyed their creators, the Faermatra’az demonstrated their resourcefulness by developing the means to propagate themselves, building a small yet stable population with a culture of their own. Now they live hidden amongst societies all across Zyathé, using their incredible abilities to hide in plain sight, for ends both fair and foul.
