[QUOTE="mcmillan, post: 7708620, member: 6681949"] The most significant part of the Devas' previous lifetimes is creating a connection to a character that has been alive for 500 years due to divine energy. It probably wouldn't hurt if you just wanting to have an Aasimar and say they've effectively become immortal. There is one major NPC Deva that at least in the 4e version had the ability to manifest aspects of previous lifetimes, but this was unique enough that you could probably make up an explanation based on summoning versions of himself from different times or something like that if you really don't like the Deva flavor. As for the languages, when I played I basically just declared each of the major nations to have it's own language, with Common serving as sort of like Latin as a language spoken in multiple nations. Explicitly tying it to one of the official languages from the players handbook just made for strange bookkeeping when it didn't always make sense. Saying Deva speak Primoridal is just to represent many of them living in Risur. [/QUOTE]
