Many Genasi flock to larger cities, where Lizardfolk and Gnomes can easily mask the strangeness of Genasi. Despite their potential and higher than average durability, Genasi are looked down upon. Genasi are naturally isolated, and this can cause problems for the strange-looking Genasi. This can cause extreme failure to hit Genasi hard, since their confidence is one of the few things their parents didn’t take away from them. This forces Genasi to wander, and look for their Genie side.ĭespite this oppression, Genasi understand their potential, and see themselves as equaling any challenge. Genasi are certainly rarely loved at times, their mortal parents may not even want them. However, they often have qualities that are very similar to that parent a Fire Genasi has red skin and occasionally burning hair, while an Earth Genasi’s skin might be cracked and brown like the ground.
The latter tends to be more likely, though the material plane crosses with elemental planes more often than most mortals believe.Ī Genasi tends to be the same size and general shape as the mortal they were born to… And will probably never see the Genie side of their family in their lifetime. These creatures are created during an accident of birth, either when a being is suffused with the power of the elements… Or when a Genie falls in love with a mortal. Genasi were introduced in the Elemental Evil Player’s Companion, a free supplement for 5E.
