Planetouched



Planetouched were mortal creatures whose lineages trace back to outsiders, including celestials, fiends, and elementals. Outsiders who could reproduce tended to be inter-fertile, therefore being able to mate with just about any other creature they desired. If the offspring of these unusual unions proved to be itself fertile, planetouched were born within a few generations.
