Homebrew Fallen Angel Species Details

Creatures of beauty in both mind and body, crafted to form the ideal form of beauty by their creator. They served their deity following their tenants. Usually of similar or standing taller than that of a human, despite their other shared features. Holding the grace of their deity, they had wings of a snow white image, now they are tainted black to mark their betrayal. Other than the pair of black feathered wings on their backs, they are nearly identical to humans with a large variety of eye and skin colors.

Fallen Angel Traits

level 1

Ability Score Increase

+2 Charisma, +1 to ability score of your choice. 

Age

Angels are created as fully mature humanoids and do not age but since you've fallen from grace, dependent upon how much of your divinity you've held on to, you can only live for a few more thousand years.

Alignment

 Once lawful good creatures, but now they can now safely range anywhere on the spectrum of alignments.

Darkvision

Your divine powers wane and you no longer have your divine senses, but you still have this one. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Angelic Resistance

 As a divine being, you used to have numerous resistances, but now, you're left with one. You are resistant to radiant damage.

Celestial

 Your creature type is both celestial and humanoid. You used to be immune to many conditions, however you have now fallen, and your powers are in decline. You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed and frightened.

Residual Powers

You have lost most of your powers when you fell from grace, but you are slowly starting to grasp them again. You know the guidance cantrip. When you reach 3rd level, you can cast the cure wounds spell once and need to finish a long rest before you can cast it again. When you reach 5th level, you can also cast the lesser restoration spell once and need to finish a long rest before you can cast it again. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells.

Outcast

When you die, if you are still out of favor with your deity or haven't sworn allegiance to another deity, the Outer Planes rejects your return. And thus, you permanently die if slain, and cannot be revived except by the wish spell.

Clipped Wings

Fallen from grace, your wings do not work as well as before, but soon you'll recover. Starting at 5th level, you gain a flying speed of 45 feet. You may not fly in normal backpacks or armor. The cost to alter your gear to be suitable for flight is equal to half the cost of the gear.

Languages

You can speak, read and write Common and Celestial, plus a language of your choice.

Wings of Iron

Using your wings you can block up to three projectiles for every long rest taken
