Outsider

Outsiders come from beyond the mortal world. They may resemble other types, but their origin, and perhaps their substance, lies outside the Material Plane: they are shaped by planar origin, cosmic allegiance, divine or infernal purpose, or otherworldly essence.

Senses: Spirit Outsiders have no conventional physical senses. They have Blindsense 15 feet (Strong Magnitude), an unseen, otherworldly awareness of their surroundings.

Subtypes

• Celestial: defined by radiance, judgment, mercy, wrath and higher purpose.
• Infernal: defined by domination, contracts, punishment, flame and cruel order.
• Abyssal: defined by hunger, savagery, chaos, corruption and destructive impulse.
• Void-Born: defined by distance, silence, cold stars, emptiness and alien cosmic force.
• Spirit: defined by immaterial presence, omens, passage, memory and unseen guidance (see Senses).
• Heraldic: defined by messages, decrees, duty and supernatural authority.
• Tempting: defined by desire, bargains, seduction, false promises and the price of a soul.
• Exile / Wanderer: defined by displacement, broken allegiance, hidden purpose and a fractured nature.
