Aasimar Fighter Build Guide
Soar into battle and smite your foes with the divine power of an Aasimar Fighter!
Why Aasimar Fighter?
The Aasimar's celestial gifts make them a natural fit for the disciplined martial prowess of a Fighter. Your innate resistance to damage and the ability to heal with Healing Hands bolster your already impressive durability. This means you can stand on the front lines, soaking up hits and protecting your allies, far longer than many other characters. The Fighter's combat maneuvers combined with your Aasimar abilities create a potent offensive force.
With a Hit Die of d10, Fighters are meant to be tough, and your Aasimar traits only enhance this. You'll start with solid stats like a 15 in Strength (or Dexterity) and a 14 in Dexterity, giving you a strong foundation for hitting hard and acting quickly. While your Intelligence might be low at 8, your focus on the battlefield will be unparalleled.
