Rather than playing all aasimars or using one of the bloodlines from Unearthed Arcana, we decided to combine several methods to give them a special "oomph". First the GM let us all have lots of bonus starting feats to flesh out our characters - non-combat feats that gave us skill boosts or spell-like abilities. Then we each randomly rolled to get a Heroic Path (from the Midnight setting). Oddly enough, everyone got a path that was really appropriate to their character despite the random choice. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />  In another campaign the GM went for a much smaller way to give the PCs some heroic abilities. When we rolled for ability scores, we rolled 4 sets of 4d6, and two sets of 5d6. This gave every PC two ability scores that had a chance to be slightly higher than average.</blockquote>
