Aasimar

Aasimar are those that have inherited the bloodline of a celestial ancestor within their family's history, be it an archon, angel or god-like entity. Every so often, these celestial traits manifest in the generations, and thus an aasimar is born. Aasimars often have angelic traits to denote their heritage - porcelain skin, radiant eyes, or feathered hair - and whilst certainly otherworldly, they are regarded in better circumstances than their tiefling counterparts.

## Protector

Community, vigilance and companionship are the traits of the Protector, those that would nobly stand in the face of evil and rain down justice against those that would threaten their allies.

**Ability Score Increase:** Your Wisdom score increases by 1.

**Radiant Soul:** Starting at 3rd level, you can use your action to unleash the divine energy within yourself, causing your eyes to glimmer and two luminous, incorporeal wings to sprout from your back.

Your transformation lasts for 1 minute or until you end it as a bonus action. During it, you have a flying speed of 30 feet, and once on each of your turns, you can deal extra radiant damage to one target when you deal damage to it with an attack or a spell. The extra radiant damage equals your level.

Once you use this trait, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

## Fallen

The celestial are righteous and zealous, but they are not as impervious to sin as one might think. Those that have been exiled, been outcasted or betrayed their brethren are the Fallen - perhaps on the quest to redemption, or the weight of their sins only drives their hatred further.

**Ability Score Increase:** Your Strength score increases by 1.

**Necrotic Shroud:** Starting at 3rd level, you can use your action to unleash the divine energy within yourself, causing your eyes to turn into pools of darkness and two skeletal, ghostly, flightless wings to sprout from your back. The instant you transform, other creatures within 10 feet of you that can see you must each succeed on a Charisma saving throw (DC 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or become frightened of you until the end of your next turn.

Your transformation lasts for 1 minute or until you end it as a bonus action. During it, once on each of your turns, you can deal extra necrotic damage to one target when you deal damage to it with an attack or a spell. The extra necrotic damage equals your level.
