Half Asuras are rare indeed. These creatures are naturally the offspring of a union between a chaotic servant of good powers and a particularly brave and righteous human. Half Asuras often keep many of their immortal parent but the most significant trait are the burning eyes, a symbol of the righteous wrath that animates those beings.
Half Asuras are emotional characters with a explosive temperament. No one should ever make a glorious half asuras go angry or he will have to challenge a fearsome opponent. Most half asuras are skilled warriors fighting with all the rage and the passion that animates them but a few chose other specialties and eventually become master in their art.
Basically then half asuras tend to be awesome warriors, extremely skilled with their weapons witch they use to fight against their foes. Half Asuras are particularly skilled with any kind of sword and giant spears witch they use while fighting on a mount. As another link to their parents half asuras often ride flying mounts like pegasi or griffins.
