About aasimar

Similar to Tieflings, Aasimar are creatures either descended from or touched by celestials or other good-aligned beings.

Notable aasimar

• Dame Aylin is a special aasimar. Most aasimars have a distant angelic relative which grants them the ability to temporarily summon wings and make their eyes glow. Dame Aylin is in fact a demigod - she is a daughter of Selûne, and because of this she is immortal.
• Olam is an aasimar spellcaster and Harper that battled Ketheric Thorm more than a hundred years ago, before falling prey to the darkness and effects of the Shadow Curse.

Notes

In the game files, the Aasimar race appears to erroneously inherit from the Dragonborn race instead of the Celestial race.
