Fallen Seraphim (3.5e Race)

Fallen Seraphims

Personality

Banished from the celestial planes, stripped of their immortality, these being wander the human realm in search of purpose. Coming to terms with their mortality, they are often found forming pacts with adventurers whom they find to be strong companions. They lack common sense with things such as eating and sleeping. Most die early on, starving or going mad with the concept of mortality. Few will find peace of mind and a sense of purpose. However, their love for knowledge is something they never abandon.
