Book People

Book People is currently a placeholder name.

Origins
Created from magic bleeding over in to the ancient and often forgotten libraries of the world from the Outer Plane of Knowledge. These resemble humanoid forms except for appearing largely featureless and appear to be made of overlapping paper and script moving constantly across its surface. The elders of the race gain more fantastical abilities as they grow older including bringing themselves fully in to books or transforming their "Page Form" in to varied and outlandish designs.

The main goals of this race are to acquire and keep safe knowledge and younger members will be sent out of their library enclaves to search out knowledge to bring back. Though, on these journeys the individual volumes do come in to their own and have goals and personalities of their own. New members are created by groups of individuals compiling their acquired knowledge in to a new volume. This new volume would consider the group of creators as "parents".

Though technically genderless, the book people can conform or identify as one gender or another.
