Description
Neither fiend nor true celestial, a caethorn is a spawn of a Neutral god in need of a minion to complete a specific task. Once that task is done, the caethorn is free to roam the planet doing whatever it pleases.
As a reminder of its conception as balance of evil and good, a caethorn has fluffy, yet useless, angel-like wings and scaly, demonic skin complete with sharp devil’s horns. Their body is skinny and humanoid, similar to a taller, pointer elf. A collection of pitch-black eyes and a slim, wide mouth that stretches to an unnatural size adorn their smooth face.
Moral Ambiguity For Hire. Caethorns are greedy little creatures, and they seek nothing more than material wealth and status. They make most of their money doing work for creatures that doesn’t line up with that creature’s alignment. For example, if an orc tribe wants to organize a peaceful ceasefire with an elven city, they’ll send a caethorn as a diplomatic representative. If a bronze dragon wants to hire a hit man, they’ll hire a caethorn to do their dirty work.
Both Vain and Charitable. Caethrons require a pretty penny for their work, and spend that money freely. They’ll often be found in the finest clothing, but they also give a fair amount of their money to charitable causes. This may be motivated in a desire to look good to the elite class, but it’s the thought that counts. A caethorn’s favorite cause is the technical and moral advancement of the Underdark, and many spend their time financing drow city development or flumph education programs.
