BH: Hallowforged Nephilim

Nephilim

Description

Roleplaying Info

Those forged of Light, related the powerful and weird angels, or those of Celestial or Seraphic heritage bear the namesake of the Hallowed. Going by many names, including Aasimar or "Caelings", any of this supposed sacred blood are driven by the Divine. This does not make them automatically "good", as plenty of Hallowforged individuals wage bloody crusades as Paladins, Slayers, or even Warlocks

Nephilim Hallowforged are often born into the Heavens, or of realms and beings involving sacred light. This causes them to bear the appearance of their seraphic progenitors, no matter or weird or esoteric they may be. Non-Nephilim may retain their humanoid appearance (or what could be close enough to such) while still having Hallowed featured, such as possessing halos, feathered wings, or eyes that glow with light. In some cases, such as the Ahnubine Gnolls, an entire Ancestry spawns a heritage uniquely by the influx of divine energy.

You Might...

• Carry yourself with an instinctual grace, moving with a finesse that may seem otherworldly.
• Have an urge to protect (or avenge) the misunderstood, marginalized, or misbegotten.
• Have physical features that give you an unsettling appearance, even if it is conventionally beautiful. You may have a dermis of reflective silver, or eyes in places they normally wouldn't be.

Others Probably...

• See you for who you really are, rather than what you appear to be.
• Treat you with worship or reverence, but distance you by putting you on a pedestal.
• Think you can provide simple and free supernatural solutions for all their problems.
