@ebthestarryknight replied to your post: "Any time Taliesin plays a homebrew class, he..."
WHAT!! ASHTON WAS AN AASIMAR??
Holy shit I always assumed he was a half elf for some reason (I think something Matt said in a description of a flashback) but this changes everything!!
In the episode 34 flashback, Matt describes Ashton's elven father so I can see where the confusion comes in. Also if you look at Ashton's character art, they actually have the tops of their ears broken off because of the fall so you can't tell if they're elven or humanoid:
Tumblr media
4SD from what I'm aware of isn't everyone's taste but it does reveal a lot of nice character stuff from the players and a whole lotta lore. In that particular ep, that's where Taliesin revealed the original aasimar heritage and that Ashton has been sort of repressing the fact.
Because I am a NERD and I know DnD lore, aasimar usually have one or two human parents so it totally makes sense if Ashton's mother was human or even an aasimar herself. And aasimar kids usually serve as a portent or a gift from the gods so they are extremely revered and highly sought after [I think there was a moment in the first campaign where Matt mentioned a demon lord trying to buy aasimar slaves]. Wouldn't it make sense that if Ashton's dad, an arrogant Hishari cultist, saw this and went "hmm you know what? If somehow the gods gave me a kid with heavenly blood that LITERALLY EVERYONE EVIL WILL BE AFTER, maybe they will allow me to access more divine stuff" before opening an elemental rift?
Then cue said open rift that caused a bright flash of white extremely similar to the Apogee Solstice incident that teleported wee kid Ashton to the middle of the Bassuras desert.
Actually during that flashback segment, you can see Laura mouthing to Marisha "aasimar?!?" and half the cast getting bewildered at the father reveal.
