===Celestial===

A celestial 'dark' puppeteer is perhaps an angel possessing a sinful but repenting mortal body as a host, or maybe a powerful holy person who return to their old worldy body to still do good. Either way they lose all the undead abilities and gain a few more to make up for it. 

'''Lose:''' Fast Healing, Rejuvenation and Undead Type and Traits.

'''Size and Type''': The creature’s type changes to [[SRD:Outsider Type|Outsider]]. Do not recalculate the creature’s [[SRD:Base Attack Bonus|base attack bonus]], saves, or [[SRD:Skill Points|skill points]]. It gains the [[SRD:Angel Subtype|angel]], [[SRD:Extraplanar|extraplanar]], [[SRD:Incorporeal|incorporeal]] and [[SRD:Good Subtype|good]] subtypes. Size is unchanged.
