Species Revamp v0.3.0 #

Universal Ability Score Allocation #

• Unless state otherwise by a species, you gain a 1 Ability Score Improvement point (ASI point) that must be used on one of the listed Ability Scores from your species, and an additional 2 ASI points that can be used on any Ability Score of your choice, so long as the final allocated points (all 3 ASI points) are not all used on the same Ability Score.
  • Example: By selecting the Orc Species, you must put at least 1 ASI point in your choice of Strength or Constitution. You select Constitution, and now you have 2 more ASI points to allocate, only one of which can be used to further increase your Constitution.

Aasimar #

Creature Type. You are a Humanoid. You are also considered a celestial for any prerequisite or effect that requires you to be a celestial.

Other racial features remain the same as written.

Lore Changes:

• One major change herein is that each Aasimar invokes distinct visual features based on the stars & constellations of Arkhedomos.
• Each Aasimar has a tie to one of the constellations that make up the night sky, and often an Aasimar will change their last name to reflect their constellation in acceptance of who they are.
• Common visual features that differentiate Aasimar from their parental race are: Starry eyes, starry hair, taking on major traits (e.g. Horns, tongues, teeth, etc.) from their constellation, and sometimes a starry tail associated with their constellation.
• Sometimes Humanoids can become marked by their sins or virtues by cosmically divine beings, these marks often manifest in the creation of an Aasimar. One does not choose to become an Aasimar, they are born as one (or potentially remade as one, though, noted occurrences throughout history are quite sparse). The children of an Aasimar are often not Aasimar themselves but often manifest as whatever species they originally were.

Available constellations in Arkhedomos are:

The Leonine Virtues:

• Kindness, Solbravva, the Sun Companion
• Courage, Lunaga, the Orbital Courage
• Hope, Nebularis, the Life Forger
• Restraint, Abysma, the End Emissary

• Greed, Balk, the Elk

• The Hands of Jaihl-Hus, Bearer of Elemental Earth.
