Exemplar: Advanced Class


Description

Across the land, it’s not uncommon to find religious orders dedicated to the eradication of the enemies of the Divine.

Exemplars are holy warriors who are granted divine power by their faith and Oaths they make. They are venerated soldiers of their faith, exacting their diety’s justice in the name spoken by them in their soft moments of faith. Most Exemplars begin their training as Clerics, and take to the martial, militant training granted by Fighters to better guard them against the forces of darkness - namely, undead and Demons and in some faiths, Angels.

Exemplars utilize powerful divine magic both of Radiance and Darkness, augmented by their chosen faith, to exact retribution over undead, demons, and even angels; they are a force to be reckoned with wherever those beings stir. Still, without those lurking threats, the Exemplar is able to engage in physical combat using the power granted to them by the divine to help shape the battlefield.

All Exemplars over their career take a number of Oaths that bind them to their faith. They are imperious and stalwart in these devotion, and breaking their oaths is the greatest sin an Exemplar can commit. Those who break their oaths too often will eventually be named Oathbreakers, and be exiled from their religious sect or even face the wrath of a Divine. 

Requirements

Warning: Heavy Roleplay requirements are present in Exemplar, due to the mechanic of their Oaths and the Oaths that must be followed therein. Characters should be advised that Exemplar is a heavy roleplay class, and that breaking the oaths in the Divine Hand role can lead to serious loss of class function.

“I call my faith: divine and right, I wield and shape creation's light,

With fervent plea and ardent zeal, I summon strength for woe and weal,

From realms beyond, my power's source, With prayer and faith I give it force,

As vessel for the will divine, I claim the power that is mine…”

Incantation: None

Call: None

Target: None                                        Duration: Passive

Delivery: None                                        Refresh: None

Accent: [Chosen Accent]                        Effect: Special

Whenever this character uses a Power (including spell) or attack that has the Radiance or Darkness Accents, the character may substitute that Accent for their Divine Hand’s Role Accent instead. In some places in this document [Chosen Accent] may be used, this means the Accent granted by the Divine Hand Role. This can be done at-will.

Additionally, levels of Exemplar count as Cleric levels for purposes of Faith’s Resilience, Greater Healing Touch, and Healing Touch. Exemplar is a Divine-Casting class for purposes of Refreshing Prayer or Commune with Nature.

Ancient Traditions  [Innate]

Requirement: Exemplar Level 1, Druid Level 1

Incantation: None

Call: None

Target: None                                        Duration: Passive

Delivery: None                                        Refresh: None

Accent: None                                        Effect: Special

While modern Exemplars generally come from clerical backgrounds, the concept predates modern practice, and with a little effort these traditions can be resumed.

The Exemplar may use the Druid incants instead of Cleric incants for Exemplar powers. Any time an Exemplar spell would add points to your Healing Touch pool, you may instead add those points to your Life Tap pool. Additionally, levels in Exemplar count as levels in Druid for calculating the Life Tap pool.

Divine Grace [Innate]

Requirement: Exemplar Level 1

Incantation: None

Call: None

Target: None                                        Duration: Passive

Delivery: None                                        Refresh: None

Accent: None                                        Effect: Special

The Exemplar is a vessel for their deity’s righteousness. Because of this, the Exemplar is granted a certain level of mastery over the realm of their Divine benefactor, allowing them to draw upon divine power.

An Exemplar gains a point of Divine Grace at levels one, two and five. These Points refresh after completing a Long Rest. Most Exemplar Powers use Divine Grace as a resource, but they can also be used with the Grace powers listed under the Divine Hand Role. Points of Divine Grace granted from the Divine Hand role are additive with points granted from Exemplar.

Chosen One [Innate]

Requirement: Exemplar Level 2

Incantation: None

Call: None

Target: Self                                        Duration: Passive

Delivery: None                                        Refresh: None

Target: Other Individual                                Duration: Instantaneous

Delivery: Touch                                        Refresh: Long Rest

Accent: Radiance                                Effect: Cure, Heal, Mend, Grant Barrier, Drain

By laying of the Exemplar’s hands upon the afflicted, they may channel the divinity of the highest powers to ease the pain of the tormented. This transference of life and light leaves the Exemplar in a weakened state, but sacrifice is the burden of the chosen.

Once per Long Rest, the Exemplar may choose a target to Touch and call “Cure Conditions of your choice, Heal 10, Mend 10, Grant Three Barrier by Radiance”. The Exemplar is then afflicted by Short Drain Final, unless they expend a Divine Grace.

This powerful spell washes the target in life-energy. It provides two charges to the caster’s weapon or charges two spell balls. If the target is a corpse, it will bring it back to the living with 1 Life Point.

A Grant Life Effect, used on an Undead, will cause the creature to immediately discorporate and take Spirit Form.

Casting this spell adds ten points to the Exemplar’s Healing Touch pool if they have one. If the caster has the Peacecaster skill, instead they will add eleven points into their Healing Touch pool if they have one.

Note: This spell may be cast more than once per Long Rest.

If cast with a Master level spell slot the delivery becomes Verbal and the call becomes “[Name or Description] Grant Life, Heal to Full, and Grant 5 Barrier by Radiance” instead.
