Dust para-genasi

❌

A dust para-genasi was a breed of para-genasi, that is, a planetouched human descended from two different elemental outsiders, namely one of elemental air and one of elemental earth, forming para-elemental dust.

Description
Dust para-genasi were gaunt of build, with pale skin, hollow cheeks, and dark circles under their eyes. Most had traits like dry skin or an ever-present cloud of dust about them that came from their mixed ancestry.

Personality
These smart and often-sarcastic folk had a tendency toward the bleak and macabre, with a morbid interest in death and decay that made them less than popular with others. They invariably wore dark or black attire, often even wearing funeral vestments or the like, no matter how inappropriate this might be. Though usually neutral in outlook, they had a slight inclination towards chaos. Most lived as rogues, while clerics followed deities who offered either Air or Earth domains.

Abilities
Though quite a nimble breed, they were often in poor health. However, they did not breathe, making drowning, suffocation, and inhalation of poisons and noxious vapors not a concern for them.

They possessed a natural defense against dust-related spells, such as dust of dryness or the breath of a dust mephit. Once a day, they had the ability to call a cloud of dust to their aid, which concealed them from view and forced others into coughing fits.
