Character Building Tips
Charisma-focused Far-Touched shines as a face character or spontaneous caster. Bards and Warlocks maximize spell power. Paladins gain better auras and saves.
As a Far-Touched of Derro, you combine the best of both: Derro's core traits plus Far-Touched's specialized abilities. Consider multiclassing options that leverage both parent and subspecies features.
Racial Features
Insanity
Insanity
You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened. In addition, you can read and understand Void Speech, but you can speak only a few words of the dangerous and maddening language—the words necessary for using the spells in your Mad Fervor trait.
Mad Fervor
Mad Fervor
The driving force behind your insanity has blessed you with a measure of its power. You know the vicious mockery cantrip. When you reach 3rd level, you can cast the enthrall spell with this trait, and starting at 5th level, you can cast the fear spell with it. Once you cast a non-cantrip spell with this trait, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells. If you are using Deep Magic for 5th Edition, these spells are instead crushing curse, maddening whispers, and alone, respectively.
About Far-Touched
The Far-Touched is a species with 3 racial traits.
You grew up firmly ensconced in the mad traditions of the derro, your mind touched by the raw majesty and power of your society's otherworldly deities. Your abilities in other areas have made you more than a typical derro, of course. But no matter how well-trained and skilled you get in other magical or martial arts, the voices of your gods forever reverberate in your ears, driving you forward to do great or terrible things.
