planetouched

Planetouched is a collective term for those individuals who through their own actions, or far more common the actions of their ancestors, had their bloodline blessed or cursed by influence of powers outside the mortal planes. When the influence is that of a divine entity this is considered a positive appellation, but far more often this is treated as a slur.  While rare overall, the most common type of planetouched are the tieflings, followed by the Aasimar and Genasi.
