Umasi

Umasi¹ are an isolated group of humanoids notable for their strange way of healing; they cannot heal themselves except by using parts of other creatures' bodies.²

Appearance

As a result of their healing method, umasi often appear as an amalgamation of many different ancestries and can differ greatly from each other, though they tend to remain humanoid.²

On Golarion

There are multiple umasi settlements in the Bandu Hills and Kaava Lands in the Mwangi Expanse, where they are termed Harvestmen.³⁴ Some of them live alongside ghouls and hunt for people's bodies to use, but many are peaceful people who seek to cause as little harm as possible.⁴
