[QUOTE="Grogg of the North, post: 8944429, member: 6682960"] What level are you starting at? I saw you have a hefty amount of gold to play with so I'm assuming higher than first level. If you can start off with your Level Adjustment already gone, then Aasmir is a lot more appealing (Less bookkeeping ;) ). Even if you can't, assuming you start a level behind everyone else, you'll rapidly catch up after "paying" for your level adjustment. The stat boosts work well with cleric since you'll need wisdom for spells and charisma for turning. And if the game is going to have a lot of social interaction, having a good charisma score will definitely help. The other racial bits are neat as I said earlier. With the exception of Light 1/day. Just seems silly to add that on when you have darkvision. Plus, you get that celestial flavor to go with your PC! EDIT: So it turns out you get Daylight and not Light. I was wrong there. Daylight is much more useful. Also, ask your GM. As a Native Outsider, you may also get automatic proficiency in all simple and martial weapons, armor, and shields. You get the armor and shields from cleric, but maybe you can wield a longsword now. Or a longbow. ;) It's kind of a nebulous gray area since Aasimar don't have racial hit dice. But it never hurts to ask. [/QUOTE]
