Streets of Regalis: Erudites

My version of the Erudites, included in Streets of Regalis, is a blue-skinned race obsessed with perfecting their species until they transcend the physical realm entirely. Like the Magna, the Erudites believe they are superior to all other races. However, they are not interested in conquering others, or even proving their supremacy, since both are linked to the material world which they are endeavoring to leave.

As part of their quest for perfection, the Erudites use selective breeding to create their version of a master race. This has resulted in each one looking nearly identical, so much so that other races find it almost impossible to tell them apart. In fact, Erudites themselves differentiate each other via telepathy instead of physical appearance.

Erudites are psionic, like the Dahl, but focus their abilities on controlling others through illusion and direct mental command. Other races are rightfully distrustful of the Erudites, viewing them as deceptive and manipulative.
