Homebrew Angelkin Species Details

Tall and divine

The angelkin are in some regards, like angels guarding this world from divine foes. They often stand at around 6.5 to 7.5 feet tall, and weigh around 160 pounds. Due to their divine creation, their bodies shine with an otherworldly glow, that gives out dim light for 10 feet around them. They can also sprout angelic wings after they have reached maturity. These wings are often a light color, like white or light yellow. And their skin is unusually pale.

 

Ancient beings

The angelkin are an ancient species, that can grow to an incredibly old age. This age avarages out at about 10000 years. And they reach maturity at 500 years old. This means that in their eyes empires rise and fall in the blink of an eye. And due to this they often do not concern themselves with the affairs of the other races, unless thay feel that it is of great importance to the world itself. This longlevity also grants them nearly unlimited pools of knowledge and wisdom to draw from. Due to their creation by a good god. Most, if not all angelkin, share an extremely good nature and strife for good relentlessly. Due to this, practically all angelkin are good aligned.

 

Great isolation

The angelkin practically live in complete isolation from the rest of the world, as nearly all of their race live on the isle of the gods. Located at the most southern end of the world, seperated from the rest of the world by hundreds of miles of ocean. Though the few angelkin that ever even leave their homeland and travel to the rest of the world, often become renowned adventurers, or figures of high importance due to their great foresight.

 

Divine power

All angelkin have an innate magical ability to create a burst of divine light from their hand. This light scorches the flesh of all evil creatures, and heals good creatures. Angelkin are ranked in four seperate ranks decided by their power and wisdom. The lowest are known as the Sechera, the next rank is the xunare. The third are the arcanar and the very strongest and wisest of the race are known as the ormarti, or alternatively, as a guide of Xutar. The angelkin also have a high council, consisting of the 7 wisest ormarti. The angelkin also have their own language known as divin, this language would sound like an ancient song to any that would hear it. It is also very hard to learn to any non native speakers.
