阿斯莫的祖先中拥有一个天界生物甚至是一个神的血脉，并且具有不可思议的在世界上行善的潜力。与此同时，他们的血统也使他们与众不同，常常导致被迫害、嘲笑或被从迷信或落后的社区流放。一个阿斯莫在逆境中屈服于痛苦，走向邪恶，这并不是什么新鲜事。
The aasimar bear the legacy of a celestial being or even a deity in their ancestry, and have incredible potential to do good in the world. At the same time, their heritage marks them as different and often leads to persecution, ridicule, or exile from superstitious or backward communities. It is not unknown for an aasimar to give in to bitterness in the face of adversity and turn to evil.
阿斯莫是人类，也是一些善良的外来生物，比如一个真正的天使，一个天界生物，羽蛇（couatl），翼蛇人（lillend），甚至是一个善良神祗的仆人或化身的后裔。(当然，其中一些生物必须使用魔法，才能形成与人类伴侣相匹配的形态。)虽然有着善良外界生物血统的精灵、矮人、侏儒和半身人都存在，但这些杂交品种并不是真正的阿斯莫。
Aasimar are the descendants of humans and some good outsider, such as a true celestial, a celestial creature, couatl, lillend, or even a servant or avatar of a good deity. (Some of these creatures must use magic to assume a form that is compatible with a human mate, of course.) While elves, dwarves, gnomes, and halflings with good outsider ancestry are reputed to exist, those crossbreeds are not true aasimar.
阿斯莫看起来像人类，除了一个与他们不寻常的祖先有关的显著特征。这些特性（以及导致这些特性的祖先）的一些示例如下:
Aasimar look human except for one distinguishing feature related to their unusual ancestor. Some examples of these features (and the ancestors that cause them) are:
金色的眼睛
银色的头发
翡翠的皮肤（异界神侍planetar）
肩膀上的羽毛（星界使徒astral deva、鹏羽天使avoral celestial、异界神侍、炽天神侍solar、小号亚空天族trumpet archon）
头发上的羽毛（鹏羽天使）
珍珠般的乳白色眼睛（勒迦天使ghaele celestial）
响亮的嗓音（翼蛇人、小号亚空天族）
明亮的黄玉眼睛（炽天神侍）
银色或金色皮肤（炽天神侍）
小片彩虹鳞片（羽蛇或翼蛇人）
golden eyes
silver hair
emerald skin (planetar)
feathers at the shoulder (astral deva, avoral celestial, planetar, solar, trumpet archon)
feathers in hair (avoral celestial)
pearly opalescent eyes (ghaele celestial)
powerful ringing voice (lillend, trumpet archon)
brilliant topaz eyes (solar)
silvery or golden skin (solar)
iridescent scales in small patches (couatl or lillend)
阿斯莫明白他们是特殊的，即使他们不明白他们真正的血统。许多来自潜在血统的阿斯莫甚至不知道最初是什么生物产生了这个血统。两个来自同一血统的阿斯莫通常具有相同的特征。
Aasimar understand that they are special, even if they do not understand their true heritage. Many aasimar from a latent bloodline don’t even know what creature engendered the line in the first place. Two aasimar from the same bloodline often have the same distinguishing feature.
阿斯莫的寿命和年龄与人类相同。
Aasimar have the same life expectancy and age categories as a human.
历史History
费伦的大部分阿斯莫都来自于穆尔霍兰德的神祗。当神系的凡人化身击败了伊玛斯卡(参见《被遗忘的国度战役设定集》，185页)，他们定居下来，把凡人当作恋人和配偶。这些结合的半天界后代成为了那个国家的贵族，他们通过与纯种人类的婚姻淡化了神圣的本质，创造了阿斯莫。他们中的许多人离开了这个国家，去寻找一种与他们的祖父母无关的命运，所以穆尔霍兰德周围的土地比其他任何地区都有更多的阿斯莫。
Most aasimar in Faerun are derived from the deities of Mulhorand. When the mortal incarnations of the Mulhorandi pantheon defeated the Imaskari (see the FORGOTTEN REALMS Campaign Setting, page 185), they settled and took mortals as lovers and spouses. The half-celestial offspring of these unions became nobles of that country, and dilution of the divine essence through marriages to pureblooded humans created aasimar. Many of these aasimar left the country in search of a destiny not tied to their grandparents, and so the lands around Mulhorand have more aasimar than any other area.
性格Outlook
大多数阿斯莫对他们的人类邻居都很警惕。即使是那些由懂得自己血统的父母抚养长大的孩子，也无法逃脱其他孩子和成年人异样的目光，因为人类害怕与众不同的东西。阿斯莫通常会经历大量的偏见，这对于那些真心想帮助他人在一个充满敌意的世界中生存的善良的阿斯莫来说更加痛苦。阿斯莫通常被认为是冷漠的，在大多情况下，这是一种由于多年的误解而产生的自我保护措施。阿斯莫经常带着混合着嫉妒和尊敬的心情看待真正的天界生物和其他善良的外界生物。幸运的阿斯莫偶尔会从他们的天界祖先那里得到指导和建议，而这些阿斯莫更有可能是典型的天界美德的例证。
Most aasimar are wary of their human neighbors. Even those raised by parents who understand their heritage cannot escape the stares of other children and adults, for humans fear that which is different. Aasimar usually experience a great deal of prejudice, which is all the more painful to the goodinclined aasimar who truly wants to help others survive in a hostile world. Aasimar are often seen as aloof, when in many cases this is a protective measure born of years of misunderstandings. Aasimar often look upon true celestials and other good outsiders with a mixed envy and respect. The lucky ones receive occasional guidance and advice from their celestial ancestor, and these aasimar are more likely to exemplify the stereotypical celestial virtues.
因为阿斯莫最喜欢的职业是圣骑士，所以他们中的大多数人都遵循这条道路，至少在一段时间内是这样。圣骑士阶层的哲学在阿斯莫的心中产生了共鸣，他们天生就适合拥护秩序和正义的职业。一些阿斯莫，尤其是那些非秩序外界生物的后代，成为了牧师，因为他们天生就比大多数人更聪明，更有魅力。即使是没有成为神圣施法者的阿斯莫，也会被与神力相关的职业所吸引，比如神力斗士，因为光明的召唤是非常强烈的。
Because an aasimar’s favored class is paladin, a majority of them follow that path, at least for a time. The philosophy of the paladin class resonates in the aasimars’ hearts, and they are innately suited for a career championing law and good. Some aasimar, particularly those descended from a nonlawful outsider, instead become clerics, since they are naturally wiser and more charismatic than most humans. Even aasimar who don’t become divine spellcasters gravitate toward divine-related classes such as the divine champion, for the call of the light is very strong.
并不是所有的阿斯莫都能发挥他们的潜力。一个邪恶的阿斯莫黑暗卫士或术士是一个可怕的对手，莎尔和赛特这样的神祗腐蚀阿斯莫，把他们变成痛苦而愤怒的生物，从不公正的迫害中保持着积怨。
Not all aasimar live up to their potential. An aasimar blackguard or sorcerer of evil is a terrible opponent, and deities such as Shar and Set love to corrupt an aasimar, turning her into a bitter, angry creature nursing old grudges from unjust persecution.
阿斯莫角色AASIMAR CHARACTERS
因为阿斯莫能敏锐地感受到神力的召唤，他们通常会成为牧师或圣骑士。一些阿斯莫把他们超凡脱俗的感觉带到音乐艺术中，成为有成就的吟游诗人。仍然存在阿斯莫会爱上费伦的荒野,成为德鲁伊和游侠。
Because they feel the pull of deific power so keenly, aasimar are often clerics or paladins. Some aasimar bring their otherworldly sensibilities to the art of music, becoming accomplished bards. Rarer still are aasimar who fall in love with Faerun’s deep wilderness, becoming druids and rangers.
受欢迎的职业:圣骑士。阿斯莫的血脉迫使他们去寻找和反对邪恶，无论它潜伏在哪里。
Favored Class: Paladin. Aasimars’ very blood compels them to seek out and oppose evil wherever it may lurk.
进阶职业:神力斗士，神力信徒和大祭司是阿斯莫最常见的进阶职业。
Prestige Classes: Divine champions, divine disciples, and hierophants are the most common prestige classes for aasimar.
阿斯莫社会Aasimar Society
阿斯莫很少有兄弟姐妹是另一个阿斯莫，因为超自然血脉的遗传是一个不确定的事情。正因为如此，很少有阿斯莫认识他们的同类。在他们罕见的遇到另一个阿斯莫的时候，他们之间有一种不言而喻的理解，一个阿斯莫很可能会在争论中站在另一个阿斯莫一边，而不考虑其他从属关系，只是为了亲缘的味道。
Aasimar rarely have siblings who are other aasimar, for the heredity of the supernatural is a chancy thing. Because of this, few aasimar get to know another of their kind. On the rare times they encounter another aasimar, there is a sort of unspoken understanding between them, and an aasimar is likely to take another aasimar’s side in an argument, regardless of other affiliations, just for a taste of kinship.
阿斯莫甚至比半精灵还要稀有，他们没有自己的社会。很少有人有机会遇见其他的阿斯莫或天界生物，所以他们试图融入他们父母的文化。如果他们有自己的社会的话，阿斯莫将会形成一个守序或中立善良的社会，专注于慈善事业，帮助穷人，并致力于根除邪恶。在一些罕见的地方，阿斯莫可以找到真正的接受并去寻找其他在其他国家出生的阿斯莫的消息，希望作出安排，把孩子带到避难所，在一个他或她被珍惜而不是被认为是奇怪的异类的环境中长大。
Aasimar, being more rare than even half-elves, have no true society of their own. Few have the opportunity to meet other aasimar or celestial beings, so they attempt to blend into the culture of their parents. If they had such a thing, aasimar would have a lawful good or neutral good society, focusing on charitable works, helping the needy, and campaigning to eradicate evil. In a few rare places, aasimar can find true acceptance and search for news of other aasimar born in other lands, hoping to make arrangements to have the child brought to the sanctuary and raised in an environment where he or she is cherished, not considered strange.
语言和文字Language and Literacy
阿斯莫没有自己的文化语言，尽管那些意识到他们的血统的人通常学习天界语言。阿斯莫通常会学习她父母的语言，并可能学习其他适合他生存的地区的语言。
Aasimar have no cultural language, although those that realize their heritage usually learn Celestial. An aasimar usually learns the language of her parents and may pick up other languages appropriate to her region.
除了野蛮人，所有的阿斯莫都有读写能力。
All aasimar are literate, except for barbarians.
阿斯莫魔法与知识Aasimar Magic and Lore
阿斯莫种族没有特有的法术，但是喜欢那些能增强他们天赋能力或者能让他们攻击邪恶的神术。有些阿斯莫很幸运，能从真正的天界生物那里学到秘密的魔法，并小心翼翼地守护着这些知识，以表明天界对他们的信仰并非毫无回应。
Aasimar have no spells unique to their race, but favor divine spells that enhance their innate powers or allow them to blast evil. Some are lucky enough to learn secret magic from a true celestial, and guard that knowledge carefully to show that the celestial’s faith in them is not unfounded.
阿斯莫魔法物品AASIMAR MAGIC ITEMS
阿斯莫种族没有特殊的魔法物品，但是有些人找到了获得真正的天界生物通常使用的武器，比如魔法巨剑（勒迦天使、亚空天族、异界神侍和炽天神侍）或者扰乱狼牙棒（星界使徒所使用的）。
Aasimar have no particular racial magic items, but some find ways to acquire weapons common to true celestials, such as magic greatswords (used by ghaeles, archons, planetars, and solars) or maces of disruption (used by astral devas).
阿斯莫神祗Aasimar Deities
阿斯莫没有种族共同信仰的神祇，但经常崇拜他们超自然祖先所服侍的神祇（或者，如果祖先是神祇，那就是神本身）。因为费伦的大部分阿斯莫都是穆尔霍兰德诸神的后裔，所以他们中有很多人都为这些神服务。一个出生在旧帝国之外，或者旅行使她远离了这些土地的阿斯莫，可能会拥有一个与她的新国家相适应的志同道合的守护神。
Aasimar have no common racial deity but often worship whatever deity their supernatural ancestor serves (or that being itself, if the ancestor is a deity). Because most aasimar in Faerun are descended from Mulhorandi powers, a large number of them serve those gods. An aasimar born outside the Old Empires, or whose travels have taken her far from those lands, might take a like-minded patron appropriate to her new country.
因为一些穆尔霍兰德神祗被描绘成有着动物的头部或者与某些动物有紧密的联系，阿斯莫因为这些神或者他们的超自然神仆但诞生而来，通常会与那种动物有亲缘关系，有时与那种动物有微弱的相似之处。
Because several Mulhorandi deities are portrayed with animal heads or have strong ties to certain animals, aasimar descended from these deities or their supernatural agents often have an affinity for that sort of animal, and sometimes have a faint resemblance to a creature of that type.
与其他种族关系Relations with Other Races
虽然阿斯莫大部分是人类，但他们很少觉得自己能融入人类社会。相反，他们与其他混血儿——即半精灵和半兽人——相处得最好，因为他们通常和阿斯莫有着相同的被排斥的经历。
Although aasimar are mostly human, they rarely feel like they fit in among human society. Instead, they get along best with other halfbreeds—namely, half-elves and half-orcs—because they and aasimar usually share the same sort of semi-outcast background.
阿斯莫既不接纳矮人、精灵、侏儒和半身人也不躲避他们，因为尽管这些种族没有迫害神魔裔的历史，但也没有庇护他们的传闻。所有类型的元素裔和阿斯莫之间的差别都太大了，无法引起同情或亲缘感。提夫林是最能引起阿斯莫怀疑的种族之一，因为这些被神圣感动的阿斯莫理解那种的召唤，因此能够猜到那些流着邪恶血液的提夫林会受到到什么样的诱惑。
Dwarves, elves, gnomes, and halflings are neither embraced nor shunned by aasimar, for while these races have no history of persecuting the planetouched, they don’t have a reputation for sheltering them either. Genasi of all types are too alien compared to an aasimar to elicit sympathy or a sense of kinship. Tieflings are the one race that garners the most suspicion from an aasimar, for those touched by the holy understand its calling and therefore can guess what sort of temptation those with unholy blood must hear.
阿斯莫装备Aasimar Equipment
阿斯莫种族没有不同寻常的装备，不过在他们的武器装备中，他们更喜欢拥有神圣或驱除邪恶外界生物的附魔能力的武器。
Aasimar have no unusual racial equipment, although in their armaments they favor weapons with the holy or evil outsider bane special abilities.
动物和宠物ANIMALS AND PETS
由于阿斯莫缺乏一个真正的社会，作为一个整体，他们并不比其他任何一个种族更经常养宠物。然而，由于他们的天界血统，他们比真正的人类更有可能获得天界生物的信任和接受。此外，阿斯莫的穆尔霍兰德血统通常和与关联他们神圣祖先有的动物有着密切的关系。
Because of their lack of a true society, aasimar as a whole don’t raise any particular creature as a pet more often than any other kind. Because of their celestial bloodlines, however, they are more likely to gain the trust and acceptance of a celestial animal than a true human might. Also, aasimar of Mulhorandi descent have an affinity with the animal associated with their divine ancestor.
