Bui are creatures that are big and light. Their skins are light blue. Bui started appearing around 1000 years ago. Bui generally live for around 75 years. They have no dark vision. They started to come up out of the sea around 900 years ago, there are many theories revolving around it.

 

950 years ago the undersea government encountered an issue the Bui were absorbing too much water and getting too big and endangering the undersea cities. They came up with a very simple solution: get the Bui to go above the sea. To convince everyone that this was ok, and not very racist they explained to all parties the exact issues and that the Bui would have 100 years to come above the sea. In which they did slowly come up. Up here they weren’t used to the drastic decrease of pressure and so were much lighter than before allowing them to essentially float longer in the air. There is very little scientific support however, there is also very little historical evidence to support it.

 

The gods wanted to show the Aves how inferior they were and so sent the Bui. The Bui were to show them the potential of if they became light. However, the Ave ignored this warning and continued on with their path. Once again, there is minimal evidence for this theory.

 

The Bui are an extraterrestrial race that came down to this planet searching for supplies. When they arrived they found that they could move much easier here and would thrive here and so stayed. There is currently no evidence for this theory and a lot against it, however, it is relevant enough to mention here.

 

Now for some info on the race itself.

The average Bui is about 8 feet tall. They can grow up to about 9 feet but can be as short as 6 foot. Bui’s skin are a very light blue. They are generally very bulky however are about as dense as air. Their speeds are 2x as much as any other race for the same number, they have advantage on initiative, and they can jump twice as far. At the same time any knockback damage does 2x the normal amount. Also, Air attacks deal 2x the normal damage, and they have disadvantage on things like a Dex check against a tornado. They can be a really good team member to quickly move around the battlefield, and can be a nice tank.

Thank you Querra for the help on this one.
