1. What is the homeplane of the asuras ? Archons are from Mount Celestia, eladrin in Arborea, guardinals in Elysium and aasimons don't have a homeplane. But the asuras ?
2. I know from the manual about the planes of law that archons are created from lawful good petitioners. Those become lantern archons and, theoretically, could ascend to tome archon status. It's the same with the eladrins and guardinals ?
3. What exacly is the status of the aasimons ? What is their origin ? I know that archons can turn into aasimons. Under what conditions ? And it's the same for the eladrins, guardinals and asuras ?
Solars, deva, planetars

Asuras are created by various chaotic good powers (ones that dont feel aasmion fit them) and as awhole, have no home plane. Realistically their home plane will almost always be one of the three planes that are good and chaotic. They roam the upper planes freely. There is only one form of Asuras and they are mortal, but created from petitioners, by a power, not born.
Guardinals and Eladrins are mortal and are born from guardinals/eladrin parents. They are born into one form, live in that form, grow old in that form (this could take dozens of mellenia), and die in that form (barring some extreme unatual event, as always). It could be argued that they are not proper celestials, but they are powerful, nearly universally good creatures of the upper planes.
Aasimon are created by good powers form worthy and willing petitioners. They start as aganthinon warriors and exceptional one can eventuall be promoted into and then through the ranks of the celestial stewards (all other Aasimon). Aasimon are gernerally not ranked higher than any other form of celestial, the other celestials are simply more specific to a certain plane. The exception, of course, are Solars. Solars are unquestionably the greatest of all celestials and possibly the greatest of all non-divine beings.
When an Archon or Asuras strays from the path of their fellows, but remains good, they may be accepted into the ranks of the Aasmion instead of being exiled or destroyed.
