Reigar
 This page is needs images. Help plz. |
The Reigar are a mysterious and incredibly powerful race of androgynous humanoids native to Spelljammer. Defined culturally by their fixation on art for the sake of art, the Reigar are absolute masters of all magical fields relating to creation and change, including transmutation, construct-building, and fleshcrafting. They are so obsessed with art that legend has it they destroyed their own homeworld to create the ultimate one-of-a-kind artistic display, a feat they call "The Master Stroke", and then dispersed across Wildspace.
Traveling the universe in their Esthetics, living ships symbiotically linked to their creators, Reigars are usually served by a small army of Helot's (golem-esque clones of various humanoids and monsters) and Lakshu (an enslaved race of Amazon clone-warriors), though they may also be attended by various constructs. If forced to battle, Reigars usually carry at least one Figurine of Wondrous Power and sometimes more, as well as a unique variant of the concept called a Shakti, which can change from a trinket or ornament into either a vehicle or a magical armor plus weapon combination set.
The Reigar code of conduct is said to go thus: “Anything for art, nothing without style, and everyone for himself”.
