Angelborn

01 / Bloodlines

What the ancestry means

The lore traces angelborn to beings made through flesh magic. Those beings were designed to feel the wants of others with extraordinary force. Their human descendants retain a weaker form of that influence. Angelborn is therefore not a synonym for a holy paladin or an unquestioningly good person.

Their appearance is human. Ordinary angelborn do not automatically have wings. Some feel drawn to heights or flight without that giving them an ability they have not learned.

02 / Bloodlines

Other people become difficult to ignore

The wants of nearby people exert a pressure on an angelborn. This can draw them towards service and care but also leaves room for exploitation. Portray it as a real part of the character rather than a costume that disappears whenever it is inconvenient.

The mechanics make supernatural influence an important vulnerability. Obsidian is another bloodline weakness. Neither point means another player can simply write your character's entire response without following the game's rules.

03 / Bloodlines

Tiers and protection

The base Angelborn is Tier 2. Angelborn Veteran is Tier 3. Ageless Angelborn and Freed Angel are the higher entries. Freed Angel is not an ordinary new-account shortcut to a full higher power.

Sanctuary protection and hypnosis locking have current rules distinct from older flavour text. Read the Sanctuary guide rather than assuming empathy makes every compulsion permanent.
