Homebrew Empyrean Half Blood Species Details

As Empyreans aren't native to the Material Plane it is extremely rare to witness one, let alone being able to get one to fall in love. Sequestered in the heavens above, the Empyrean, sometimes called arc angels, evoke praise and wonder as they hail from a world beyond.

They are harbingers of truth, godsends, and scouts, their presence functions as a foothold for The King God in a world both strange and alien from where they reside.

Divine Beauty

From far below when flying, Empyrean Half Bloods look much like large birds. It's only when they descend to walk the land does their humanoid appearance reveal itself. Standing upright, an Empyrean might reach an impressive 9 feet tall with luxurious golden feathers causing their angelic-like wings to faintly diffract light, giving them a slight aura.

Both males and females are admired for their almost impossible beauty, with skin of light pastel colours, hair that is silky, thick and flowing. Most mortal beings upon seeing an Empyrean Half Blood for the first time get light headed and flustered. While the Half Bloods are rather tall they never look disproportionate, no matter how muscular they become.

 

Angelic Manners

With Half Bloods being a descendant from the heavens they often take on many of the same mannerisms as ordinary angels, they remain patient and collected and try to show no change in emotion. When they seek guidance for themselves they try to get close to large amounts of holy water where they can have a stronger connection to their god(s).

To be grounded, imprisoned, or trapped underground, makes a Half Blood rather anxious. If trapped for a long period of time they can become 'lost' and are no longer able protect the ones they care about or follow their god(s) wishes.
