Crystal Child
Crystal children are special children whose parents were blessed by their deity or outsiders of the region of dream before the child was ever born or while still in the womb. Others are born without intervention, a natural defense against prevalent nightmares shared with the mother. Crystal children tend to be both beautiful in body and spirit with especially large, gentle eyes, and are on the whole very quiet and affectionate people. They form friendships easily and are very sensitive to the feelings of those about them. They tend to be opposed to violence though have been known to take up arms to protect themselves and others.
Crystal children tend to be of neutral good alignment.
