Physical Description: Ga’au are semi-formed masses of psychic energy who have a humanoid torso, head, and arms and a spectral tail-like lower half that can morph into legs when they’re not flying. Ga’au’s bodies are white in coloration, and change in color to express their mood, being unable to do so otherwise.
Associated Class: The most common choice of class for Ga’au is the Mage and using psychic magic due to their affinity to psychokinesis, and being formed of natural psychic energy.
Associated Religions: Ga’au have no central religion they choose to follow, merely following the will of their own minds to whatever it will take them.
History: The semi-formed masses of the Ga’au existed since the beginning of intelligent humanoid life, forming once an individual who is psychically strong dies. Not all psychic individuals become Ga’au, however all Ga’au are inherently psychic. The Ga’au who are born from this have a purpose, and strive to fulfill this purpose – Ga’au have appeared across the centuries enacting vengeance like ghosts or achieving other purposes post-mortem. Upon completing this purpose, they die and pass on.
In Morta IV: Many do not know of the existence of Ga’au, and those who do know of the Ga’au don’t fully understand their creation and reason for being. People who encounter Ga’au are often afraid, though the Ga’au they’re frightened of typically react with disinterest in those who are truly scared of them. Ga’au sometimes choose to take advantage of their new life beyond death, studying for thousands of years rather than pursuing their goal that they originally wished to fulfil. The Ga’au who do this eventually become bored, reach a new goal, and fulfill it in order to pass on completely.
