Mold Man sorcerer
Conclave of Sorcerers
Bind spirits and direct the energy of other planes. The sorcerer’s ram-skull sceptre is a focus for this dangerous work.
Mold men are short, vaguely humanoid, two-legged creatures. Their skin is of a green-tinted, grayish colour, with weed-like fur growing all over their bodies. Their hair resembles thin, white tendrils, and grows from the top of their head, often falling down to almost half the length of their bodies. They have small, white eyes which adjust well to both darkness and light.
Mold men usually live in small communities deep within the forests, hunting and scavenging, where they are seldom disturbed by anyone else. Due to their small size, being under half a meter tall, they seek to avoid the other, bigger races as much as possible. Mold men live in close communion with the nature and use their knowledge to hide and mask themselves when need be so that very few others can find them.
