Aasimar
The Aasimar are mortals with a celestial heritage from ancestors that originated from the highest planar frequency of Venhailo. Their lineage is traced back to the time of creation, when their forebearers served as emissaries of the Divine. They became appointed protectors and the Aasimar's descendents whose purpose was true, upheld justice and spread hope across the planar frequencies. Those who failed, had fallen from grace and became beacons of dark magic.
Aasimar have migrated to various planes, developing distinctions while retaining the divine power granted by their celestial progenitors. Aasimar arise among the population of mortals scattered across the Silverhost Empire and beyond; their heritage often appearing subtly at first and become more pronounced as their powers grow.
