The Faceless Homunculi
By far the most alien group on the island, the Faceless are a former slave race created by malevolent race of magically attuned sadistic demigods known as the Empyreans. The faceless came to the island as mere organic cargo on a mighty barge, a thousand of them packed into the ship to be sent off due to physical and mental defects. Only to be lost in the mist as the flooding lead to a turbulent maelstrom that tore the mighty vessel off to the isles.
The faceless now inhabit a small mountainous island in the far northeast of the isles. They are strange creatures of dark red marbled flesh and tough bony chitin, their biology and anatomy are far beyond the the most bizarre creatures that could be made naturally born. All of the faceless have wildly different physical structures, assembled more like organic fleshy statues and mannequins. Despite their bizarre varied constructions a unifying characteristic between them all is a vaguely humanoid doll-like mask with indistinct features.
Due to the enchantments woven into the very fibres of the faceless' biology being suppressed by the magic numbing mists these homunculi have slowly developed higher degrees of intelligence and sapience, their lack of any formal education however means their methods of educating themselves tend to be experimental and based around learning from the reactions of the world, despite this fledgling mind and gestating consciousness their morals are undefined at best thought they have a strong disgust towards slavery often turning them to violence.
Whatever the future carries the faceless will be there whether seen as monsters or people they shall stand.
