  • Magic Resistance. Kindness has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
  • Magical Weapons. Kindness’s weapon attacks are magical.
  • Peaceful Presence. Any creature within 60 feet of him cannot be frightened.
  • Shapechange. Kindness can use a bonus action to shapechange into any kind of Medium-sized humanoid or back into his true form. All his statistics are the same and any equipment he is wearing or carrying is transformed with him. If Kindness dies, he reverts back to his true form.
  • Water Walker. Kindness can walk on any body of water.

About

Kindness wanders the slums and attempts to ease the suffering of ordinary people. He appears as a healthy young man with long brown hair and a brown beard. Wearing simple clothes, he blends into crowds. As he travels through the slums, he radiates a gentle energy. Kindness can travel to other worlds but spends the majority of his time on the Material Plane.

Atonement. This powerful being walks the earth simply to help others. He feels deep empathy for all living things. This wise celestial knows that everyone is connected, in reality there is no separation.

Open Heart. Kindness won’t think twice about providing food and drink for anyone who needs it. He’ll simply magically create it and continue on his path.

Formless. The celestial can change shape into any kind of humanoid. He often does this to go unnoticed and watches how people treat him differently depending on what form he takes.
