description: 'Shining children are wicked, enigmatic monsters that roam remote planes
|
|
and untraveled corners of the universe in search of esoteric lore. With their abnormally
|
|
gaunt frames, long white hair, and unnerving, four-fingered hands, shining children
|
|
are both strangely familiar and otherworldly in appearance, though they are barely
|
|
visible within the shroud of blinding light they continually emit. Their faces are
|
|
truly horrible, however, as their overlarge eyes and distended, gaping mouths reveal
|
|
their heads to be voids filled with unnatural light. Shining children use this light
|
|
as a weapon, weaving illusions and focusing beams of fiery brilliance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because of their reputation as scholars of the alien and the eldritch, shining children
|
|
are sometimes summoned by powerful wizards or occultists in search of rare knowledge.
|
|
The creatures never give away their lore without some price, though, and typically
|
|
demand in return the performance of contemptible deeds that further their inscrutable,
|
|
far-ranging plans.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These mysterious beings are natives of the Astral Plane. In that vast plane, accretions
|
|
of metaphysical matter gradually accumulate and eventually coalesce into demiplanes.
|
|
During this tumultuous process, sparks of living light sometimes shear off the newly
|
|
formed planes, and these sparks of raw planar energy somehow transform into shining
|
|
children. Every newly formed demiplane leaves a different mental imprint on its
|
|
shining "offspring," making it easy for shining children to telepathically recognize
|
|
their brothers and sisters. Forever trapped in apparently adolescent bodies, shining
|
|
children dedicate themselves to scholarship and violence with equal measure in a
|
|
futile effort to understand their roles in the multiverse and the burning injustice
|
|
of their births.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shining children confuse most other creatures with their refusal to use individual
|
|
names in favor of alternating between referring to each other singularly and collectively.
