First appearance |
Genasi are creatures in the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game. They are planetouched, being mortal creatures who have in their veins some blood of creatures from one of the Inner Planes. In the Planescape campaign setting, they are available as a race for player characters. Genasi are also featured as a character race in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting.
Genasi who come from a different elemental stock show different powers and abilities. The most common genasi by far are the ones who are related to the four classical elements - air, earth, fire and water - though para-elemental genasi also exist.
