Description

They appear to be humans with a slightly silver-tinge to their skin.

Procreation

Their procreation follows the mother, & they are extremely fecund/virile.

Magic

One in a million have soul magic. One in fifty thousand has heart magic. Body magic is possible, as is mind magic & void. Faith is not uncommon.

Special Powers

Silver empaths have the ability to feel what others are feeling, & they can heal or even revive others from the dead with a touch, though the latter requires they utilize the emotional energy they feel from others (which manifests in a burst of argentfire). When a person feels good, a silver empath feels a positive response, & when they feel bad, a silver empath feels a negative response. Silver empaths cannot heal other empaths or empath subraces, but they can soothe, emotionally, related silver empaths with a touch.

A silver empath healing is the reverse of an empath's healing. A normal wound will make them feel sick for an hour after (-3) or very weak for ten minutes (-7). Healing a deep wound, the same scale applies, but 2 down (-1/-5). Mortal wounds merely leave them woozy for a moment (-3 for one round).

Silver empaths recognize other empaths & subraces instantly when one is within range of empathy.

Silver empaths are very resistant to disease & poison (usually equal to their healing scores+3).

Weaknesses

The undead register on their empathy & weaken them intensely. They are susceptible to the same problems normal empaths have with an imbalance of healing skill & empathy.

Culture

Silver empaths live in human society & are greatly revered & honored.
