Homebrew Nephilim Species Details
Born of angels and mortals, the nephilim inherit characteristics of both races. The most noticeable of these are the large black wings that they can manifest at will, but in addition, they also have great control over light. They generally live in small villages that have no contact with the rest of the world, as kingdoms that housed them suffered the fury of the gods and celestials.
Their body resembles that of an ordinary humanoid, when their wings are not showing.
