Homebrew White-Lighter / White-Lightress Species Details

-ORIGIN:
When they were first conceived, there was much debate over what role they would play.
Some saw them as avengers, warriors against evil, while others felt they should be guides & mentors.

-PURPOSE:
A white-lighter is a guardian angel who protects and guides benevolent people, to nurture them for their intended destiny.
They are led by Elders, a council of powerful & experienced white-lighters that serve the greater good.
The elders manage white-lighters and assign them to charges, although sometimes, the connection happens naturally.

-BACK FROM DEATH:
They are people who were previously somehow connected to the magical world or simply greatly benevolent.
These future 'angels' were given the choice to either become white-lighters or move on to the afterlife.
