Slaadborn look like bipedal toads, and their coloration and other features are dependent on the type of [[Slaad]] from which they are descended. **Worldbuilding Note:** [[Slaad]] in [[Mobius]] are based on the [Slaadi](https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/mm-2024/monsters-s#Slaadi) monsters from D&D lore. But in the [[Mobius]] setting they have been modified to remove the elements of non-consensual reproduction, including reproduction through the implantation of eggs in unwilling hosts. See the [[Slaad]] article for more detail on what is considered canon for these creatures in this setting. > [!Table of Contents]+ > 1. [[#Appearance]] > 2. [[#Traits and Abilities]] > 3. [[#History]] > 4. [[#Society]] # Appearance Slaadborn resemble large, bipedal toads with sharp claws, wide mouths filled with pointed teeth, and large heads. # Traits and Abilities **Slaad Ancestry**. Your lineage stems from a Slaad progenitor. Choose the kind of Slaad from the Slaad Ancestors table. Your choice affects your Breath Weapon and Damage Resistance traits as well as your appearance. | Slaad | Damage Type | | ----- | ----------- | | Red | Psychic | | Blue | Poison | | Green | Force | | Grey | Necrotic | **Breath Weapon**. When you take the Attack action on your turn, you can replace one of your attacks with an exhalation of magical energy in either a 15-foot Cone or a 30-foot Line that is 5 feet wide (choose the shape each time). Each creature in that area must make a Dexterity saving throw (DC 8 plus your Constitution modifier and Proficiency Bonus). On a failed save, a creature takes 1d10 damage of the type determined by your Slaad Ancestry trait. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage. This damage increases by 1d10 when you reach character levels 5 (2d10), 11 (3d10), and 17 (4d10). You can use this Breath Weapon a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest. **Damage Resistance**. You have Resistance to the damage type determined by your Slaad Ancestry trait. **Aberrational Flight**. When you reach character level 5, you can channel chaotic magic to give yourself temporary flight. As a Bonus Action, you sprout spectral wings on your back that last for 10 minutes or until you retract the wings (no action required) or have the Incapacitated condition. During that time, you have a Fly Speed equal to your Speed. Your wings appear to be made of the same energy as your Breath Weapon. Once you use this trait, you can’t use it again until you finish a Long Rest. # History # Society
