Barbarian Fallen Aasimar as an unexpected mix... Ashley Johnson was ahead of her time. :)

[@Alyxcz]

Since she doesnt even read the barbarian abillities I would guess that it was a suggested combination by somebody else.

[@5-Volt]

Zealot Barbarian is completely on theme with any Aasimar..

[@Shifty51991]

@@Alyxcz Its more so to do with her backstory i believe much like how vax was a rogue/paladin

[@varasatoshi3961]

5 Volt especially the necrotic damage one. Lots of damage and survival potential there. Once you reach level 20 you can rage for basically forever and not die, and when you’re done in combat, heal yourself back up.

Make them a storm herald and you got yourself a nephilim

[@draxthewarlocktitan5217]

Celestial Warlock Protector Assimar. My aasimar always had knack for healing but experienced troubles with organized religion and so never considered becoming a cleric. Aasimar in our campaign setting have an angelic guide and the guide is always a distant celestial ancestor of the aasimar or related by blood in some way. My aasimar swore a pact with his angelic guide and so his guide became his patron. My aasimar always strives to be wise and enlightening like his patron. Our DM likes to roleplay interactions between the players and their deities and so my aasimar spoke to his patron/guide often. The DM blew my mind when my aasimar learned that his patron/guide was actually himself in the distant future preparing his past self for things to come..

[@Sophie1Lynne]

I have an aasimar cleric who is a lot of fun to play, especially with her high charisma to help win new followers... :)

Damn right! ;)

[@StarkMaximum]

HELL yeah! (Uh, heaven yeah.) Aasimar! One of my all time favorite races! I'm a little upset the Strength subrace is the fallen one, because I like to play up the golden brilliant positive energy of the aasimar, but hey, I can do some reflavoring, it's all fine. I'm so glad to see you guys do the aasimar, they're an old favorite of mine and pretty much sold Volo's to me just on principle!

[@KeizerSosebee]

Fallen aasamars could have been tricked into falling so you can still be good (be a redemption paladin maybe)

[@TheNitrean]

I played a protector aasimar rogue. The dichotomy between the class and race was really interesting to play.

[@varasatoshi3961]

What if you were a protector aasimar devotion paladin that fell, and became an oathbreaker fallen aasimar paladin? Edit: Shift from lawful good to lawful evil?

[@BenDover-dk2sp]

Dude. That's awesome.

[@varasatoshi3961]

Trenton Doyle thanks! I sort of came up with a reverse redemption arc for him/her, where they couldn’t save a town and just went total ape sh*t on the necromancer that did it, utterly torturing him and falling in the process, forsaking all of their ideals.

[@Zen-rd9np]

Following on from the scourge part I think path of the storm herald could be fun. Desert is great because you're doubling down on the aoe damage (which you already have to consider as a scourge). Storm is almost like a call to your deva for aid in striking down your enemies. Lastly but by no means least is tundra. This one is my favourite for a number of reasons. Firstly it can be re-flavoured into much more of a restraining influence more akin to a monk than a barbarian. This is backed up mechanically by the temp hp from the range effect flatout stopping the damage on you from the scourge effect. I would theme this as one of those meditative battle trance things, possibly taught to the PC by their deva to allow them to fight without undue personal harm. A secondary effect is it helps out if your party members are inside the scourge effect, inevitably it will happen at some point. In fact until level 6 the ally takes no damage from the scourge provided the rage effect is used every turn. You'll never guess what my back up char is at the moment.

[@ShaggySasquach4231]

Scourge aasimar, storm herald Barbarian, Desert. -activating rage sets everything on fire in 10 ft. Activating aasimar consumption also sets everything on fire within 10 feet AND adds your level in damage to one attack a round. -Add on mage slayer and charge enemy spellcasters making them blow concentration checks w/ disadvantage on up to 4 checks a round! -desert domain means your resistant to fire,radiant, necrotic covering most popular types of magical damage.

[@mohammadmurie]

Thanks

[@GallowglassAxe]

I've played a protector Aasimar Sun Soul Monk and he was super fun. It was like playing a Dragon Ball Z character. During the battle with the BBEG who was a Orcus I flew up in the air and did a max level Searing Sun Burst (8d6+12) on him and his minions. It was like Goku doing the Kamehameha. It obliterated all the ghast minions and all was left was Orcus.

[@cybercoven6502]

I'm playing a Scorge aasimar sun soul monk and cause my dm let me I gave them boots of flying so now......I can go super Saiyan at low levels

[@mahanershadiam2928]

First time playing and chose protector my first level aasimar got surprised by two dopplegangers Since then I've been playing as one of the DGs in the party with the face of my aasimar and my aasimar has been captured and sent to BBEG. the DM won't tell if his alive or not I told him if he is he has fallen cause he thought his god would save him by now

[@skepticalbookwyrm4236]

I’ve played soooo many aasimars. Scourge Eldritch Knight, Scourge Divine Soul Sorcerer/Treachery Paladin, Fallen Hexblade Warlock/Revenge Paladin... I have a Protector Astral Self Monk(UA) planned for a future campaign too. I think they are tied with tieflings for my most played race

[@AzraelThanatos]

I've been playing a Crown Paladin Protector Paladin, playing for the heavy armor tank type with the Protection Style and Shield Master...being able to light up and fly is something that's proving incredibly useful as soon as you gain it, and the bonus damage during it is a nice bonus at times. Group house ruled that with healing hands, that instead of it, I could up my Lay on Hands to 6x paladin level rather than the normal 5x. Light is thematic but relatively useless due to having darkvision, but it is nice to have a cantrip there. And, dear lord, the crown paladin is extremely good for a crusader type paladin, and can work well similar to the Crusader class from 3.5

[@christophershrimplin1849]

[@jamesgonzales6882]

Im playing a scourge Barbarian/Pally the radiant damage it does to every one including it self helps it stay in rage even if I am not able to reach some one to hit on top of that using pally smite ability and the healing hands are not casting spells which means i can use them when raging.

[@ashenCombatant]

you know... I once had an idea for a divine soul sorcerer that I have yet to play. Concept is basic, since you have godly magic flowing through your veins, and with that high charisma you can start your own cult. Basic character goals was to be recognized as a true god and be able to take back his place with the gods (because either fallen, or half god). This character also combines some of the strongest spells from either spell class, although it lacks having a ton of spells... but hey, was just a fun concept for an aasimar I had.

[@jumbothick2984]

Not sure if you forgot to include the Variant Aasimar or if you simply didn’t think they warranted covering, but they get a bump to Wisdom and sacrifice the extra shroud damage or flight for more spells. As in lesser restoration and daylight once a day, not bad spells. I am currently playing a Variant divine soul Sorcere and loving it. Being able to twin guiding bolt is awesome and not to mention healing from extreme range.

[@Lucaccino17]

I'm pretty sure those are considered null and void as soon as they came out in Volo's but I could be mistaken

[@jumbothick2984]

I could see that, I have been playing for awhile so that is certainly a possibility.

I play a scourge aasimar monk, way of the sun soul. She recently discovered her angelic heritage, and the sun soul abilities are reflavored as her angelic abilities. Her other monk abilities are the result of growing up with a thieve's guild, and them teaching her to be sneaky and how to fist-fight. Her radiant consumption is reflavored as her angelic guide possessing her.

[@imyourrealdad2379]

Currently I’m entertaining the idea of a Protector Aasimar Swashbuckler build. Not trying to min/max the abilities and stats. More of a role playing element that sees my character run away from his railroaded destiny and urge to fight evil. Tragic backstory, becomes a bounty hunter, in it for himself kind of guy. Depending on future events he might multiclass because of his desired path and choices or not at all. Have to wait and see what’s in store.

[@Perial51]

I planned to play an Aasimar as soon as a player decides to play a Tiefling, just for the dynamic between those two.

Just started a new campaign with a Protector aasimar, Celestial Warlock. Will be taking Pact of the Tome when I hit 3rd level.

[@melvixen1943]

Sunsoul-monk might work well with the scourge. Like you said earlyer the monks ability stack well with asimar. Now "Radiant sun bolts" count as spell attack and synergize with radiant consumption. You could switch the sunsoul with a revived rogue (ua) with a similiar effect for bolts from the grave and sneaks.

[@XperimentorEES]

For the scourge subrace I was thinking of the barbarian path of the storm herald, either the ice to gain some shielding against the self harm, or setting yourself on fire for even more proximity damage lol.

[@varasatoshi3961]

Thematic suggestions for your Aasimar. Any: Divine soul Sorcerer Celestial pact warlock Glamour Bard? (Flavor it as instead of fey magic it's holy seductive power) Always cleric, always Charisma bonus lends itself very well to paladin. Protector: Definitely Cleric Maybe druid Still divine soul (Very very flavorful) Fallen: Zealot Barbarian Oathbreaker paladin Vengeance Paladin College of Whispers bard Scourge: Zealot Barbarian Vengeance or Conquest Paladin Any squishy caster because radiant consumption is a good panic switch to pull when you get caught out by some goblins - just kabloom!

[@Rathkryn]

Protector Aasimar College of Swords Bard.

[@ashenwuss1651]

Glamour is a Feywild based subclass. In the Summer Court, Celestials are just as welcome as Fey. Selune could have blessed a pregnant Fey mother and creared a celestial baby. Celestials do indeed work very well for Glamour and Feylocs

[@fmj25]

I'm currently playing a scourge aasimar college of eloquence bard, but since the Greek gods exist in our campaign and the paladin has Apollo as his patron god, I reflavored the aasimar to be a demigod. It'll make things rather interesting when the bard finds out that his godly father, who's been absent from his entire life, is in regular contact with the paladin..... I must say, it's lots of fun.

[@Dusk_Daze]

This is super late, but I'm about to introduce an Aasimar Hexblade as an antagonist in a high level campaign. They're the 'Champion of Horus-Re, God of Vengeance' and act as a kind of the anti-paladin. The party just (accidentally) left a small child behind to be eaten by zombies, so they're about to find themselves in conflict with a half-divine.

I am currently playing a Protector Aasimar as an Oath of Devotion Paladin on a D&D campaign on Twitch. Sir Scandalon Obadias IV has been much fun thus far.

[@Dalarish]

I am between campaigns right now, but one Aasimar i would like to play is a Protector, divine soul sorcerer with one or two lv dips into paladin.

[@mitchdunn1230]

My Aasimar, is a Dex based Sorc(DB)/Pally. The important stats after racial buffs etc, are 18 Dex, 16 Con, and 20 Charisma. I think I have Str at 14, Int at 12, and a 14 Wizdom. No armour, but still a Rapier Sorc/Pally with a 17ac in thin robes is awesome. And ya... Both as an Aasimar, and a Dragon Blooded. lol Really makes for an interesting Noble Blooded character. lol.

[@Xandersgame]

Protector divine soul sorceror,, I've had to twin revivify more than i care to admit -.-

[@JanusHoW]

I personally love that combo. It's the perfect combo for building a sorcerer for a team where nobody wants to really be the heal bot. Plus, you can say that "my daddy was a deva/planetar/solar, how about you?"Also, popping out those wings, taking to the air and lobbing fire and radiant damage everywhere makes for a very badass moment.

[@Zarsla]

Protector Aaismar Divine Soul + Celestial Warlock. Current Aasimar, very fun at level 3. Moved the +1 wis to dex(Thanks Tasha's) very nice since we use standard array in my game.

[@spencerdawes-bailey3763]

[@anonymous36247]

I haven't figured out the best way to combine it yet but I want to play a warlock scourge who knocks his opponents prone and grapples them and then goes Nova with the cloak of spiders and consumption simultaneously

[@Klaital1]

I am planning to make a protector Aasimar redemption paladin as my next character, I feel like that particular oath fits perfectly with protector thematically.

[@ultimateninjaboi]

I quite like the combo of a Protector aasimar doing a Monk/Paladin split, going Sun Soul and Redeemer. Probably not an optimal build. But a lot of thematic fun and versatility.

[@Anonymous-wk1jt]

I played a Scourge Aasimar Paladin called Valathorn. He was sent by his god to act as an advisor to a queen of a kingdom that believed in his faith. While we were facing a rival kingdom, the kingdom I was part of cane to our aid and we ended up being part of a massive war. My DM let me have permanent wings I could retract or let loose at will, with a 50ft fly speed. So flying through the battlefield carrying people of the ground and swinging my longsword was an unforgettable experience 😂

[@michaelng351]

Playing a Neutral Good Scourge Aasimar moon druid. Highly aggressive both inside and outside of combat. Pretty versatile in terms of utility/damage/healing/travel and a butt-ton of RP

[@Marcomagnuss]

I made a fate sorc with a Prot:Aasimar. The origin of how being a normally religious coming of age ceremony changes my character to be overloaded with magic from blessed magical water when normally it would be just plain water. How the water became blessed is unknown to all parties. I even made the part where wild magic is suppose to be under more control to be even more unstable by rolling with dis-advantage instead of advantage.

[@Stefan-xt5sk]

If your DM allows you to homebrew the Scourge Aasimars 'Radiant Consumption' into 'Necrotic Consumption', which radiates Darkness and shadow around you as well as dealing necrotic damage, that could also be a pretty epic shadow sorcerer.

[@richardhealy]

I'd allow it.

[@destroyerinazuma96]

@@richardhealy rule of cool ftw

[@destroyerinazuma96]

Fallen Aasimar may also work with some sort of Barbarian/Hexblade build. Not necessarily for the hitting with your Cha mod part, but for the better crits and the Hexblade Curse. If you take two levels you'll get invocations, three levels you'll get a boon. With pact of the blade you get magical weapons. You can't do the "add Cha mod to hit" Hex warrior trick on two-handed weapons, but you don't need it cause your primary stat will be Strength. Heck, you can summon a javelin and throw it around :) Stats wise you can still expect to max Str by level 8 and your Cha multiclassing toll will be cheap. You might even go heavier on the warlock side and still use demonic rage when its convenient/necessary. You mentioned Zealot but Totem Warrior is also very strong, and while Bear is a staple Wolf will help your allies tremendously.

@@GallowglassAxe Done exactly the same, it's my favorite monk build protector as sun soul, essentially angelic DBZ character with all of that monk speed boosting your flight speed, and your radiant energy bolts boosted with additional radiant damage from the transformation--on top of all that the +1 WIS is a nice little helping hand to your Monk AC and DC.

[@GallowglassAxe]

@@Apillis124 I know right! Not to mentiont the Sun Burst they get at level 11 is pretty much the Kamehameha. When I played them the BBEG was Orcus and his minions.

[@moquips]

The downside to a Scourge caster is that Radiant Consumption would trigger concentration checks every turn, so spell choice is HUGE

[@leodouskyron5671]

moquips true but you get a bonus to con - that other poor guy that you are burning doesn’t get that. Also, if it was a worry to you go get warcaster feat and/or do a sorcerer (con proficiency) build makes that concern trivial.

[@moquips]

​@@leodouskyron5671 there are obviously ways to help mitigate the impact, but it takes several levels, and a specific build. You could also take the Resilient Feat for Con to gain proficiency in con saves outside of being a sorcerer, plus war caster like you mentioned for advantage, but that uses A.S.I.'s. Or you could just not use Radiant Consumption with concentration spells. The point is a Scourge Caster requires more thought

[@crankysmurf]

I was playing a 7th-level Protector Aasimar Paladin of Devotion (the party's "tank") when my party encounter the second final boss of a "Lost"-type of magical island -- an aboleth. I used her Radiant Soul to summon her incorporeal wings and fly above the waters of its lair and fight it, being immune to both its Enslave powers and disease causing tentacle strikes. The final boss was Demogorgan himself attempting to go through the portal that the aboleth had activated. Long story short, our party gained a full level by stopping the demon prince from entering the world (he got two heads in before we closed the gate).

[@jacobtremblay4337]

Playing a Scourge Aasimar Ranger / Gloomstalker, that is named Hawk Belmont, will be multi classing into Rogue. It’s a crazy combo but it works and has versatility.

I've been playing an Aasimar Celestial Pact of the Tome Lock for the last 6 or so months. I've themed the invocations as best as I can. Been a lot of fun, themed him around having a Coutle as his Guardian/Pact holder. So he's got an annoying habit of never telling a lie. He is the party healer, oh and he carries a cursed orb which gives him 5 more spell slots... Lowers his max health temporarily when he used.. and steals the souls of casters around him when they fall. I am going to take them to Sorc, divine Soul to further expand on thier magics, and eventually be better equipped for fighting other spell casters.

Super late but maybe that will inspire someone ^^ Starting to play Protector Aasimar Cleric with Twilight Domain and having Selune as Goddess.

Have long wanted to play a mage-hunting Spirit Guardian Barbarian Fallen Aasimar, tragic backstory etc. A sort of Cassandra character. The Angelic guide warning of danger and to total disbelief as evil mage conclave swept away her village. Her grief = her rage as her spirit guardians flit about the battle field defending her allies. When she totally looses control out come the wings and she screams radiating fear and agony. I was inspired by Thor appearing in Infinity War with Tree and Rabbbit, the axe scything down enemies, leaping into the air screaming "BRING ME THANOS!!" Currently, DMing Tomb of Annihilation and one of my PCs is a protector Aasimar Celestial Pact of The Tome Warlock. Very interested to see where this goes.

Played as a Protector Celestial Warlock for a while which was fun. Roleplay wise it was a case of being an "evil" Race rebuilt by the Patron in a reverse of the typical "dying man sells soul for another chance at life" scenario, birth Race didn't have any mechanical impact. Took a level of Wild Magic Sorcerer as the new body being not quite stable which I enjoyed

[@reienna6410]

i know on dungeons and dragons online...which i wanna say was 3.5 rule set...probably wrong here...but my aasimar was a favored soul protector...and people loved her deeply...as she wouldnt die, could be in the thick of it with everyone else and throw out those commanding huge heals to save people without much effort. sadly i dont recall if favored soul is even a selectable class anymore

[@Nilandia]

Currently playing a Protector Divine Soul Sorcerer. Haven't really drawn on her mechanical racial abilities too much, though. Instead, I've been pulling heavily on the roleplay aspect, and she is currently passing herself off as a Human. She grew up in a Human kingdom where the church of Saint Cuthbert is extremely powerful and influential, even in politics. So, she believes revealing herself as having divine blood would not only open her up to being a target from evil entities wanting to take out a champion of good, but also she could prove a huge complication to the existing social and political power structure. Further adding to the complications is that she is a devoted priestess of the church of Saint Cuthbert, but current plot developments strongly imply that her father is a solar in the service of Corellan Larethian. She's still coming to grips with that idea.

I'm an Aasimar Protector Monk. I'm glad I chose the right thing.

[@Nerdarchy]

Right is subjective. If you are having fun you chose right. Nerdarchist Dave

I am planning on playing a necro aasimar, but with the idea of beeing a "good necromancer" instead of the usual evil type lol

[@JPF.94]

Is this an old video or did Dave’s hair grow back 🤔

[@finnmacky7106]

It's probably a re-release. There have been more of these lately from various KZbin creators.

Fallen oathbreaker paladin with a dip in warlock. It is so op and fun. Playing a little bit more evil than I should. But nothing hurts me at 100%. So fun

Protector asimar, cleric lvl 1 life domain and druid shepherd lvl 8

Protector Aasimar Light Cleric is my personal favorite

[@jthompson7175]

I played in a level 20 short adventure. The DM told us we'd be up against undead and demons, so I went Scourge Aasimar Oath of Devotion Paladin with Great Weapon Master. I was just about unstoppable. Edit: Yes, my inspiration was Doom. ;)

I'm playing a fallen aasimar barbarian in Rime of the Frostmaiden. She's from Tribe of the Bear and I choose the Path of Wild Magic for her. Mechanically, it's not so awesome as my Tabaxi Monk from the Way of the Drunken Master, but it's veeeeeeery cool play her. I love necrotic shroud. Her name is Lilitu and I think it's beautiful! 🤗

[@shisno314]

I can’t believe you didn’t include the light cleric in with the scourge aasimar. Sure the racial bonuses don’t exactly fit with a cleric, but the radiant racial ability just thematically fits so damn well with a light cleric.

This is my jam... Right now my favorite character I play is a homebrew half-High Elf, half-Protector Aasimar Life Domain Cleric. She doesn't know she's an Aasimar yet. (Homebrew world, DM is letting me have some fun with it.) I also played a Fallen Aasimar War Domain Cleric... that was fun. :D

[@migueltome3270]

That’s is amazing! I had a similar idea with my character. In our setting, my character thought he was a regular human his whole life, once I used channel divinity near death, the father figure deity broke the news that I was not human but an assimar.

[@christosgiannopoulos828]

I wanna play a protector aasimar and I'm between divine soul sorcerer and circle of stars druid. Which one would you suggest ?

Ted acting like a 7 year old who expects his babysitter to read his mind = on point
