Monsters: Caulborn

Monsters: Caulborn

The caulborn are a race of outsiders from the Ethereal Plane that subsist on the psychic energy andknowledge. There is three subspecies - the normal caulborn, the psychically enhanced caulborn thoughtkeepers, and the caulborn chrestomaths that serve as data banks (I will leave them for some other time).
