Hi, Fledgling DM here, and I am trying to make a race of Ant People, named Chuarsahk, for my Future Homebrew Campaign, to fill the role of a reclusive Partially Underground Desert Kingdom

I am trying to brainstorm Ideas, like racial featured/race abilities, ability score improvements, etc., and I would greatly appreciate it if you all came up with or commented unique/semi-unique ideas, even really out of the box stuff. Balance is an afterthought, with a focus on interesting, wacky, and fun first!

I'm intending for one of the main abilities to be a psionic ability, similar to the Mind Blast attack from Mind Flayers, but moreso an AoE spherical blast of psionic and force from within the Chuarsahk, as a last resort move.

As for lore and background I've got that covered! Long story short the Chuarsahk are insect-humanoid aberrations from either the Far Realm, or created by Ulatharids. Regardless they were enslaved until they revolted and overthrew their masters, left the Far Realm, and found a Prime Material Plane, and a few planets to call home, and they worship the hecking Sun, because it's the only thing that hasn't spited them yet...

Thank you in advance for those who bring food for thought to the table, and I look forward to the potential mind blow-mania that may come! :D
