Yugolean

“Yugoleans are wonderful additions to mortal parties. If one ever wants to throw a party or gather a group for adventures, yugoleans should be at the top of a guest list.”
  • Mimir


  • Evil can mean the same thing as misunderstood. In the case of yugoleans, self interest is often at the center of their character. Whether born or reborn as fiends, these mortals are as varied as their physical forms. Each yugolean defines what their life means by their choices.
