Planetar

Planetars were an order of angels inhabiting the Celestial Planes. They were the mighty generals of celestial armies that had also been known to help powerful mortals on missions of good, particularly those that involved battles with fiends. Along with solars, they were the most powerful of the celestials, apart from the celestial paragons.

Planetars were known to be in service to the deities Deneir and Ilmater, among many other examples.

Description
A planetar usually appeared as a handsome, powerful, and muscular humanoid creature  with opalescent   emerald skin. They had opalescent, white-feathered wings,    stood between about eight  and nine feet (240 to 270 centimeters) tall, and weighed about 500 pounds. They were typically bald.

Not all planetars appeared like this, however. For example, the Shards, the planetars in service to Selûne had long, flowing blue hair and pearly white skin.

Abilities
In addition to the magical powers common to all angels, planetars could pray for and cast divine magical spells like the most powerful of clerics. Beyond this, they had innate access to a wide range of powerful magics, for which they did not need to pray. These included the ability to restore victims from ailments and raise the dead. They could create a barrier of magical blades, trigger a massive earthquake, send waves of exhaustion over their enemies, charm large groups of monsters at the same time, call down a column of divine fire, and stun with only a single word. Several times per day they could transform themselves into nearly any creature or object. Whenever they desired, they could create a continual flame of light; turn invisible; smite fiends with a burst of holy power; remove curses, diseases, and fear; dispel magic, and even speak with the dead. They bore all of the immunities and resistances of other angels and were surrounded by the same protective aura of good. Furthermore, they could only be permanently harmed by magically evil attacks; they could regenerate from any other injuries.

Planetars could see in the dark and in low-light, and they always saw things as they truly were, being able to see invisible and shapechanged creatures and objects, hidden traps, and evil auras. They could always sense when someone was lying

The great wings of planetars allowed them to fly at great speeds with excellent maneuverability in the air.

Planetars, like all other angels, could use magic to speak any language. Some scholars reported that they could also communicate telepathically within 100 feet (30 meters).

As with other aasimon, planetars could not be permanently slain unless on their home plane. If their bodies were destroyed anywhere else, their life forces would return to their home plane, where their bodies would reform over a period of 40 years.

Personality
Planetars gave off a sense of strength and confidence.

Planetars were soldiers, first and foremost. They served as the generals of divine armies and sought to slay every evil creature set in their path. While they did understand the need for diplomacy, they preferred a straight battle to any other form of accomplishing a divine mission.

Combat
Despite their vast array of magical powers, planetars were more likely to wade into melee with their powerful, two-handed greatswords or bastard swords—especially with swords known as celestial blades, which glowed with radiant light and were engraved with the holy symbol of the deity that the planetar served. It was said that only a planetar could wield such a sword.

Society
Planetars were found on the slopes of Mount Celestia, on the pastoral fields of Bytopia, in the forests of the Beastlands, and among other Upper Planes.

As celestial stewards, planetars directly served the good deities. They were only sent to the Material Plane to aid the most powerful and faithful of their deities' mortal servants.

Ecology
As outsiders, planetars were not dependent upon their environment for survival.

On rare occasions where a planetar would take a mortal lover, his or her aasimar descendants would often have emerald skin or the traces of white feathers at the shoulder, as evidence of the celestial heritage.
