I have an Aasimar idea for any future DnD games. She's a Protector Aasimar rogue who when in her radiant soul can grow a pair of magpie wings. She doesn't consider her angelic heritage as a blessing, but as a curse. Her father had treated her less like a daughter and more like a mascot for his business. A lot of people had tried to either abduct her so she could perform "miracles" for them or steal her hair because apparently angel hair can bring great fortune. She even had to flee her home town when some war lord invaded and took over the town just because it had an Aasimar residing there. She now wears a mask and hood to hide her angelic hair and beauty. And when her angel started coming to her in her dreams, her hatred of her cursed heritage had been cemented so deep, she wanted nothing to do with this angel and all the good deeds he wanted her to perform. And started to practice lucid dreaming in order to block him out
that is a really cool idea for an Aasimar. i personally think they should change the general style of how Aasimar look to be more akin to a Porcelain doll with Kintsugi cracks or Marble. something to show they can come from almost any angelic domain (unless we get something akin to what Asmodeus did with Teiflings to standardize the look). hair could also be shiny or valuable looking, gold, silver, platinum, any pretty mineral or gemstone. this would make hiding their appearance just as hard for Aasimar as it is for Teiflings. both attracting unwanted attention for opposite reasons. like you said your Aasimar is was treated more like an object of value instead of a person, a mascot, something to benefit others without any concern for her well being or consent since "shes an angel and angel are meant to help." mentality is the norm. if that was a baked in description for Aasimar instead of what they have that would already make them a much more attractive race and let them have a similar appeal to Teifling by being a woobie.
What I love about my aasimar sorceress is the how ridiculously blunt she can be to literally everyone. Because people naturally like her, she's never really learned tact. She's also very stand-out, glowing, gold eyes, blue black metallic hair, and a permanent personal breeze around her that makes her cape billow... Our sneaky, shadowy rogue spends half their time rolling their eyes.
A human with celestial blood, in Judeo-Christian lore, that would be a Nephilim. I think that's easier to say, so if I have someone on my table that can't pronounce Aasimar, I'll call them Nephilim. Fight me.
In my world, Aasimar are children of angels who fell and rebelled against their own kin to live full lives with humans and grow with humanity to teach them things that were forbidden so that they could prosper and thrive in such a harsh world that takes lives indiscriminately. A war broke out between the two, causing many casualties for both sides but inevitably the ones on top won and banished the rebels to the other dimension (My single alternate world that houses many realms like the fey wild) where they made their own dimensions and domains. Their children were persecuted and imprisoned, becoming slaves to the religious followers of the Angels. But after a historic rebellion they built their own country and land by doing what they needed to survive and while still following their old ancestors teachings. Becoming essentially Viking Aasimars that raid and pillage their old slavers lands and freeing other magical races that are also enslaved as they once were like Dwarves, Goliaths, and Etc.
Before watching this, I already wanted to make some sort of Hexblade Warlock. I was thinking of doing it with a Shifter race. After watching this, you changed my mind and gave me a dumb idea for a Celestial character to have a backstory that involves them with evil. Thanks.
I was actually thinking something more along the lines of stumbling upon something that fills the character with the ‘ancient evil,’ and scour the world to get rid of it.
I have a personal concept for Aasimar. Aasimar are created by celestialss to boost their military numbers after a war among gods had wiped out thousands of angels to near extinction.
Technically unicorns and the golds scaley asian flying version are also celestials who can bread with humans etc through polymorph so a single horn levitation and gold scales are as normal as angel physical traits
Ive made my aasimar a half tiefling (with no stats, only physical appearance), where his wings are constantly visible but are small and weak until hes activated his celestial revelation. He can't fly and is actually afraid of heights. Ive made him a walking grey area both religiously and morally. He thinks the celestial that gave him his aasimar traits was a demon he worshipped throughout his life rather than an "angel" giving him the chance to truly live his life, rather than be tied down to a monastery
I love the art, and the mention of Della Reece was spot on, but this script really kicked your ass. Thanks for sharing, I really like Aasimar and played one that was a rogue who was cut off from his guardian spirit so he lost his halo. The wings came in handy at one part of the campaign.
Rookzer0: could you have a Dragonborn aismer Me: does that mean I can have a warforge aismer who replicates the aismer abilities with warforge arguments and enchants and class features Robot angel
I like the idea of going full on into the Angel of the Bible vibe, unless your Aasimar specifically looks humanoid, like, there's an Angel that straight up is just a wheel with eyes, so you could have golden skin with extra eyes along your legs and arms, they can't focus well though so they don't negate flanking for the purposes of any homerules that have the "can't flank if the creature has multiple eyes" thing Outside of that, remember to make your Aasimar's appearance reflect their personality, they may be mortal but their entire spirit is extraplanar, meaning they are in a sense drawn between two sets of physics, that of the Heavens and that of the Prime Material plane. They could have an Atom movement pattern shaped Halo (with multiple rings) for a smart person, they could have a halo in front of their head if they're a defensive one, a halo over their head, their wings could be hands of spiritual energy which allow them to fly by simply pushing against the ground, small amounts of heavenly fire could escape their mouth when they speak but never enough to be an attack, idk get wacky
I could see a bonus to perception or wisdom based saves and rolls. Interesting concept, I'd be happy if people pushed the design Way from halos and wings. I like the idea of physically manaphesting their personalities.
Im currently playing an protector aasimar who is a college of whispers bard with an ukulele as their main instrument. Backstory so far is that they were adopted as a baby by an elderly couple and raised alongside their siblings who were a mixed bag of different races. My character didn't think much of their angelic abilities outside magical potential. The group of siblings (including my character) left home and made a living as a performance group until they all got separated while escaping from evil cultists. After being found and treated , they traveled alone, performing whenever they can and searching for the others...
Playing Protector Aasimar, daughter of planar/solar of a war god. She's a divine Soul sorcerer/ celestial warlock. She's the party's healer/support and occasionally blaster. She's destined for being a great in the force in a holy/celestial war. But she's more healer/support, with occasional blasting but not much of a real fighter/general/foot solider.
You asked if you could have an aismer dragon born I say yes solely for the reason that I can have a warforge aismer Aka warforge built by some god and uses arguments and enchants to give aismer abilities to it so robo angel
I have a character planned out that I am waiting to use in a game, Death domain Cleric/ Necromancer. He believes his gift is a curse (good gods are bad because they frown upon use of Necromancy due to them begin fearful of man living eternally and no longer wanting their attention). Seeks to find the book to make Liches to stop people from making themselves a "False Lich". Name: Aelfric Goth Huntley = Angel of The True Lich.
@@Rookzer0 my plan is hide it, he was raised by clerics of death and was taught the beauty that was in death as well as that other people fear death and look down upon death clerics. So he was taught how to hide in 0lain sight to avoid unwanted attention for who and what he is
I'm currently playing an protector asimar order of the ghost slayer blood hunter, He was raised by his father with his twin sister in a small village and lived a fairly happy life until his father died saving a child from a river during a flood leaving him and his sister to become urchins living on the street. but they were kidnapped by a cult which ended up with his sister ( the much more competent child) allowing him to escape, then running into a Blood hunter who in my DM's world are call Exorcists and leading him back to the cult. The Exorcist killed the cult but they had already preform a sacrifice ritual and non of the bodies were left identifiable so he took the kid in and trained him. My character also has his connection to serinray who is very motherly and scolds him quite alot, trying to get him to be a champion but he prefers to be a professional instead its much simpler. He really just wants to fly its the thing he loves the most in the world but the more he does it the more bloody cults come after him, which has made his work alot easier from time to time. sorry for the long comment.
Really interesting idea making the blood hunter exorcists. I think that adds some cool flavor to them, I haven't had a lot of experience with them yet but your story sounds pretty awesome.
@@Rookzer0 Cheers, I wanted to balance out the typical edgy take on blood hunters and I thought that the subclass that can use its blood to make its blades surrounded in radiant energy would work well with a celestial. Also just wanted to say its really cool that you respond to all the people commenting on your videos, Its make me come back to your channel time and time again, feels like a real community cheers.
I made an Aasimar that had a warlock patron. So her benefactor was not fond of the patron and her patron was just genuinely “I have no idea what I am”.
Rookzer0 The warlock herself was fine with everything. She was helping something/someone. But I went with a Xenoblade2 style combat system, where they share the same pact weapon and the aasimar and the patron fight at the same time.
With my permission my GM lets me be a dim light 5inch glowstick with a permanent disadvantage in hiding and in dark environments I dont even get to roll hiding at all. His argument its impossible to hide if you have a joke of an ethereal smoke halo on your head. Undead or demon can sniff me out like hot meals anywhere, as long as I am around no one gets to ambush them. I will always be a first choice target for evil monsters. Like a flame to moths. Mary Sue can be a joke character too. The Shadowfell campaign as an Aasimar Paladin was so much fun. Triviality in some challenges is replaced by extreme difficulty in others. And my GM keep having NPCs asking my party members if they want to sell me for my innards, blood or soul.
Also, people should look up bible accurate angels as well as looking up all celestial creatures in the MM, I say Aasimar should have the same amount of exotic variation as Tieflings! I actually am working on an Aasimar based off of a cherubim, with the faces of a human, ox, eagle, and lion! Also, warlock is a great class with a pact with a celestial being/god makes for a fairly viable build and AMAZING role-play opportunities!
It definitly could, i like to add little flovors like that to my fantasy weapons, or they wisper to you when someone near by is hurt. Little things to add flavor are always welcome
Id say the halo should apear in darkness shedding enough light to count like light the cantrip, but also when doing celestial things like spells that heal or deal divine damage or bless others etc. and yes to always wings but alternative wings that apear only as needed. With a auto heal ecro touch so your aasimar can be similar to tieflings but also unique
I know this is an old ass video but idc imma share my character: They basically nobility that was put on a pedestal by their parents and basically weren’t allow to leave their room and had to sit there until they became the messiah that h the wit parents believed them to be. While they revered them they also were kinda scared of the idea of them going to the bad side by any means of contact with anyone who wasn’t a holy being, so they also left him alone. He had a war forged caretaker because they were like “yeah robots aren’t really people nor holy so we’ll have a war forged take care of our kid”. They become close and create a child and parent relationship and feeling bad for them the war forged decides to secretly take this kid out to see the world. The kid would take classes with this retried paladin and would now technically be considered a paladin (there more too it but I thought it would be funny to diverge from the very self righteous and openness of paladin. It’s like when you find out that one friend of your is a Ordains minister and you’re like “what the fuck when did you do that”). They would then escape the house and join the party. Idk I thought it was fun

Hey so I need some help. I’m making a Aasmiar and I can’t get a good backstory going, he’s a paladin and his name is Icarus. But I dunno what god to tye him too, because I don’t really want him to be tied to godly stuff. He’s not a fallen Aasmiar and still has a good moral compass but for some reason resents what ever gosh he serves. Any advice?
Well you don't have to have a diety to be a paladin you could just have him follow a code to a fault. Choose a diety or order your like for the mechanics. Your dm can help you figure out whats best for your build but playing a paladin truthfully doesn't require a diety to back it up. :) let me know what you come up with
Ok so here's an idea... A chaotic good fallen Aasimar death cleric named Malak al Mawt. Fell from grace both metaphorically and literally and started going down a slightly darker path, yet not being completely evil. More so using his dark powers to serve as an enforcer of the natural order of things. Keeping other dark forces from wreaking havoc on the mortal world and looking to help guide the souls of the dead into thier afterlives so that they might find peace. The reasoning behind his name being that Malak al Mawt means angel of death in arabic.
Question.. I'm new to DnD (only played pure homebrew with my friends, cuz we r all new to it) who wanted to try out real DnD.. Thinking of going as an Aasimar.. Either going Paladin / Bard.. I wanted to go dual weapon, a Whip & a Rapier.. but, idk how the weapon here work with the stats & feats..
I have a character that is half fallen Aasimar half vampire Prince and they are a shadow sorcerer for the sake of rp there shadow sorcerer bloodline is all that is why they are not dead they were originally a vampire but was touched by a half fallen Angel but survived because there bloodline started to kick in and saved them and found out that they are destined to kill a lot of vampires and they are in a magic school
If anyone wants to know how i homebrew this it's a half vampire race and i combined it with the Aasimar race but any abilities that copy one another i don't keep for example Aasimar get resistance to narcotic and so does half vampires so i ignore the half vampire ability
Unfortunately i don't have discord also I'm not the one who made the half vampire race but I'm trying to homebrew a aniamatronic background but not for this character in particular also I'm unsure if the half fallen Aasimar half vampire race should get the half vampire abilities first or the Aasimar abilities first or some of each to start because to me it seems a bit op to just hand over stuff like making zombies by biteing dead/dieing people if the character is harder to kill with light magic which normally would be a dangerous thing for them so they ether get all of one of their half race abilities and unlock the other half race abilities or they some of each and later on get all of their half race abilities
nice video, lot of fun, im just trying to figure out how could do the accent of an aasimar talking, because celestial should leave an accent to the other languages
I don't see why you couldn't. There are some awesome tutorials out there check out Some of Mohammed Agbadi's videos on improving your drawing skills. Bring your drawings to live is a good one!
Okay this was funny but I always did found this race just to be boring because well they're angels. I also like I said too many of the other videos I'm not a person that really cares for a full-out human race and I still consider them as a full-out human they're not human but they're human enough to where they don't really catch my interest.
@@Rookzer0 well there are such thing as albino kobolds but that's more white than silver. The only closest thing you can probably get to a silver kobold is if a kobold breeded with a silver Dragon but then you'll get half dragons that are just silver with some kobold traits. That's how the half dragon race works right or that's how I always pictured it they look for Konica like with just some sort of look of what the other parent is? You think at this point since I'm the one that loves dragons I should automatically know this.
When your whole video is a constant joke about not having your script edited, it really distracts from what your trying to do and isn't actually funny. Just edit your script and edit your narration and you'll have a great video.
I have an Aasimar idea for any future DnD games. She's a Protector Aasimar rogue who when in her radiant soul can grow a pair of magpie wings.

A lot of people had tried to either abduct her so she could perform "miracles" for them or steal her hair because apparently angel hair can bring great fortune.

this would make hiding their appearance just as hard for Aasimar as it is for Teiflings. both attracting unwanted attention for opposite reasons. like you said your Aasimar is was treated more like an object of value instead of a person, a mascot, something to benefit others without any concern for her well being or consent since "shes an angel and angel are meant to help." mentality is the norm.
if that was a baked in description for Aasimar instead of what they have that would already make them a much more attractive race and let them have a similar appeal to Teifling by being a woobie.
What I love about my aasimar sorceress is the how ridiculously blunt she can be to literally everyone. Because people naturally like her, she's never really learned tact. She's also very stand-out, glowing, gold eyes, blue black metallic hair, and a permanent personal breeze around her that makes her cape billow... Our sneaky, shadowy rogue spends half their time rolling their eyes.
"can you turn off your wind please"
"never"

I totaly aggree with you. I think nephilim is a great usage for half celestial beings.
Yeah, and in the book of the Bible where they were from, they were never described physically, so they could look like anything you want.

I always assumed that Aasimar were mortals blessed by angels and given angelic power. Effectively between full blown angel and human.

first you have two pool of healing with both lay on hand and healing hand
you have all the advantage of a paladin
armor class 18 base with shield and chain mail you can get to a 20 with the heavy armour

I've made an Aasimar Artificer. I know it's not a great combo but I really like the backround I've come up with.
That sounds pretty good. I don't see why it wouldn't be awesome. an artificer with a halo work lamp all the time!
@@Rookzer0 I guess part of me worrying is because I'm new to dnd and there's no guide for this one.
@@PredatorH2O Check out the aasimar from pathfinder on the SRD. then talk to your dm and see what happens.
Hey so I need some help.
I’m making a Aasmiar and I can’t get a good backstory going, he’s a paladin and his name is Icarus. But I dunno what god to tye him too, because I don’t really want him to be tied to godly stuff. He’s not a fallen Aasmiar and still has a good moral compass but for some reason resents what ever gosh he serves. Any advice?
Well you don't have to have a diety to be a paladin you could just have him follow a code to a fault. Choose a diety or order your like for the mechanics. Your dm can help you figure out whats best for your build but playing a paladin truthfully doesn't require a diety to back it up. :) let me know what you come up with
I think a Scourge Aasimar that was like an Odinson would be cool just switch the radiant damage to lightning and boom your Thor
Would be a fun way to build it. I'd even allow the wings to just be conceptual. Get the ability but don't have to see them.
Your drawing looks like a version of Ororo Munroe, Storm from the X-Men.
Thank you!
storm is an angel so that tracks
I play a protector Aasimar Warlock/cleric who's a member of the Green Lantern Corps. He's fearless, but bumbling.
I am playing an Aasimar based on an ASMRtist. :)
Nice one
Ok so here's an idea... A chaotic good fallen Aasimar death cleric named Malak al Mawt. Fell from grace both metaphorically and literally and started going down a slightly darker path, yet not being completely evil. More so using his dark powers to serve as an enforcer of the natural order of things. Keeping other dark forces from wreaking havoc on the mortal world and looking to help guide the souls of the dead into thier afterlives so that they might find peace. The reasoning behind his name being that Malak al Mawt means angel of death in arabic.
Engels was one hell of an aasimar! 😂
I am excited to have realy TIME (great)
Glad you're enjoying the videos
Question..
I'm new to DnD (only played pure homebrew with my friends, cuz we r all new to it) who wanted to try out real DnD..
Thinking of going as an Aasimar..
Either going Paladin / Bard..
I wanted to go dual weapon, a Whip & a Rapier.. but, idk how the weapon here work with the stats & feats..
I have a character that is half fallen Aasimar half vampire Prince and they are a shadow sorcerer for the sake of rp there shadow sorcerer bloodline is all that is why they are not dead they were originally a vampire but was touched by a half fallen Angel but survived because there bloodline started to kick in and saved them and found out that they are destined to kill a lot of vampires and they are in a magic school
If anyone wants to know how i homebrew this it's a half vampire race and i combined it with the Aasimar race but any abilities that copy one another i don't keep for example Aasimar get resistance to narcotic and so does half vampires so i ignore the half vampire ability
Reallt cool idea, if you wrote up the homebrew content your welcome to share it with the discord
Unfortunately i don't have discord also I'm not the one who made the half vampire race but I'm trying to homebrew a aniamatronic background but not for this character in particular also I'm unsure if the half fallen Aasimar half vampire race should get the half vampire abilities first or the Aasimar abilities first or some of each to start because to me it seems a bit op to just hand over stuff like making zombies by biteing dead/dieing people if the character is harder to kill with light magic which normally would be a dangerous thing for them so they ether get all of one of their half race abilities and unlock the other half race abilities or they some of each and later on get all of their half race abilities
Also for the half fallen Aasimar part of the character race I just consider it a normal Aasimar but they get some of there powers later
nice video, lot of fun, im just trying to figure out how could do the accent of an aasimar talking, because celestial should leave an accent to the other languages
That's a tough question, but great point. let me know what you end up with!
Also, where's that discord?
The discord is currently avalible for my patreon members. But it should be up for non patrons before christmas, i will send a link of youd like.
@@Rookzer0 That would be awesome
You just put my drawing to shame... I'm so discouraged right now. If I practiced could I learn to draw like that???
I don't see why you couldn't. There are some awesome tutorials out there check out Some of Mohammed Agbadi's videos on improving your drawing skills. Bring your drawings to live is a good one!
Can someone please explain the what he said in simple words please
Which part can I clarify?
Asmr
Okay this was funny but I always did found this race just to be boring because well they're angels. I also like I said too many of the other videos I'm not a person that really cares for a full-out human race and I still consider them as a full-out human they're not human but they're human enough to where they don't really catch my interest.
Gotta get that dragamir built!
You can always mess with your DM. Try introducing a lizard-folk/aasimar hybrid!! Holy iguana Batman!
@@wyattperry4484 a lizard-folk aasimar. How would that work I mean lizard-folk are not very intelligent but they're very cunning. Hm. Choices choices.
Ha ha ha, awesome. Can you imagine a kobold with actual silver scales, they would think it some kind of chosen one.
@@Rookzer0 well there are such thing as albino kobolds but that's more white than silver. The only closest thing you can probably get to a silver kobold is if a kobold breeded with a silver Dragon but then you'll get half dragons that are just silver with some kobold traits. That's how the half dragon race works right or that's how I always pictured it they look for Konica like with just some sort of look of what the other parent is? You think at this point since I'm the one that loves dragons I should automatically know this.
Lmao subbed
welcome! feel free to check out the discord
When your whole video is a constant joke about not having your script edited, it really distracts from what your trying to do and isn't actually funny. Just edit your script and edit your narration and you'll have a great video.
