Aasimar

"The only thing the Aasimar fail at is being on this plane for such a short time, they are just blessings to behold."

— one human to another human in Port Neswest

Aasimar are a race of humanoids that can be found in Arrasgoth but they are the most rare of all the humanoids that exist on the continent. Aasimar are seen as the height of human evolution, beings blessed by the Arrasgoth Pantheon to be born with divinity inside them from the start. They are the most awe inspiring of the human subraces and a stark contrast to Tiefling. There is little understanding on how an aasimar is born but it is believed the mother has been blessed for being a good person or devout which gives them the gift of an aasimar child.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Aasimar do not differ from humans in the sense of physical bodies, having two arms and two legs, and no real extra appendages upon them. However, they seem to be a lot fairer in skin and their hair a lot lighter, almost white in some cases. They also have bright features, almost giving them the grace of an elf in their appearance.

Growth Rate & Stages

Aasimar grow at the same rate as humans and age at the same rate, meaning they tend to reach maturity at age 18. However, they can live much longer than humans despite their aging being of a similar rate.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Aasimar, unlike humans, have the ability to see in darkness as if it was dim light. They have resistance to radiant and necrotic damage due to their celestial heritage, though not many are sure how they got it. They also come with an innate magic to not only heal others with their hands, but to be able to bear light through a spell. There are multiple types of aasimar who can channel their own divine energy in a variety of different ways.
