ABOUT

The xorn are 5-6 feet tall and are native to the elemental plane of earth. When on the material plane they tend to live deep underground, where they feed on gemstones.

The Xorn look like boulders when stationary and are able to blend in their environment. The xorn do not attack humans or demi-humans as they cannot digest meat.

They are largely indifferent to creatures of the material plane — except for those carrying precious metals or minerals.

They can smell gemstones up to 20 feet away and will demand adventurers give them their gemstones and precious metals. If refused, they will almost always (90%) attack.
