Aasimar

Often confused with nephilim, these beings are born from those with angelic blood in their extended family, and resemble physically beautiful humans with charismatic personalities. They are capable of telepathy and empathy, and often follow religious paths because of their celestial ancestry. Although they are naturally inclined towards benevolence, there are several individuals who have become corrupted by use of dark magic. Their existence was first discovered in the process of writing modern fantasy literature, which implies that they are a recently-evolved species.
