Homebrew Celestial Bugbear Species Details
When a celestial and goblinoid, specifically in this case a bugbear, have a child. This race is what becomes of it.

They have limited innate magic as well

Posted Jan 29, 2022I like this. Yesterday, I was thinking of making a Bugbear Paladin but was unsure of how to go about doing this, since they are polar opposites of each other. Having this race would make this idea a bit more believable. Thanks.
