Y'm-bhi

Description

The Y’m-bhi appear to be not a people, but a class of being, mortals reshaped by ancient methods far beyond our understanding. Many are former explorers, our comrades and countrymen, their bodies reclaimed after death and reassembled into obedient forms. Flesh is stitched and repurposed, sometimes capriciously, producing laborers and guards that are human only in form.

What remains of the soul or the mind is but a fragment: a sliver of human speech, a brief hesitation when ordered to strike. These moments pass quickly.

If only they could find eternal rest, rather than this mockery of eternal life, made crueler still by the memory of having once been human!
