Dragonstar Aasimar Racial Template
75 points
- Choice Professions: Cleric, Holy Warrior.
- Marginal Professions: None.
Aasimar, or celestials are said to result from the earthly dalliances of beings known colloquially as "angels." Some people believe that aasimar exist for a Reason and are the Chosen. However, if divine servitors are forbidden to fraternize with mortals – as clerics claim – then it seems more likely that aasimar descend from rebel angels, or that angels aren't divine servitors. It is odd that despite aasimar's many gifts, they only wield holy powers when they happen to take priestly orders.
Aasimar could pass for the lucky few humans who are attractive, fit, nimble, strong, and wise, if it weren't for the golden or silvery nimbus. Some have more telling features, like wings.
