In fact, it is more often used for the distant (2nd generation or later) hybrids than for the direct hybrids of Half-Celestial, Half-Fiend and Half-Elemental, although strictly speaking it covers both. It is uncertain if Half-Fey or their descendants would be considered planetouched, as they are not formally associated with an alternative plane in the [[Great Wheel]] cosmology, but are in the [[World Axis]] cosmology.<br /> <br /> Due to the planar isolation of the [[Demiplane of Dread]], there are no native enclaves of planetouched, though a Dungeon Master may consider the existence of tieflings due to the presence of a small number of fiends in the demiplane. [[Deathtouched]], was similarly non-canonical, would ironically be more likely.<br /> <br /> ==Celestial Planetouched==<br /> The foundation of &#039;&#039;&#039;Celestial&#039;&#039;&#039; Planetouched is the &#039;&#039;Half-Celestial&#039;&#039;, the direct offspring of a mortal and a being native to the Upper Planes. The descendants of these beings are called &#039;&#039;Aasimars&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> The Forgotten Realms are home to a specific Aasimar species called the &#039;&#039;Celadrin&#039;&#039;, which descend from the union of elves and eladrin of the Firre caste.<br /> <br /> ==Fiendish Planetouched==<br /> The foundation of &#039;&#039;&#039;Fiendish&#039;&#039;&#039; Planetouched is the &#039;&#039;Half-Fiend&#039;&#039;, the direct offspring of a mortal and a being native to the Lower Planes. The descendants of these beings are called &#039;&#039;Tieflings&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> The Forgotten Realms are home to a wide variety of tiefling subspecies; the elf-born &#039;&#039;Fey&#039;ri&#039;&#039;, the orc-born &#039;&#039;Tanarukk&#039;&#039;, the minotaur-born &#039;&#039;Baphitaur&#039;&#039;, and the &#039;&#039;Whorgest&#039;&#039;, who descend from the specific union of goblins and a fiendish race of wolves known as barghests.<br /> <br /> ==Elemental Planetouched==<br /> The foundation of &#039;&#039;&#039;Elemental&#039;&#039;&#039; Planetouched is the &#039;&#039;Half-Elemental&#039;&#039;, the direct offspring of a mortal and a being native to the Elemental Planes. The descendants of these beings are called &#039;&#039;Genasi&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> The Forgotten Realms is home to two specific Genasi species called the &#039;&#039;D&#039;hin&#039;ni&#039;&#039;, the product of interbreeding between djinn (genies of Air) and halflings, and the &#039;&#039;Azerbloods&#039;&#039;, children of dwarves and azers (dwarf-like fire elementals).<br /> <br /> The concept of genasi born to the corruptive influence of Ravenloft&#039;s Dread Elementals is netbook canon, having been explored in the article [[Grave, Mist, and Pyre]] in [[Quoth the Raven Issue 07]].</div>
