Shaman
Hailing from the untamed northlands, Shamans were the spiritual leaders and guardians of their people. Claiming an astounding attunement to the wilds and their patron deity Mogdrogen, Shamans are capable of wielding the terrible forces of nature against their foes or even calling upon savage beasts to come to their aid. Shamans excel in the use of brutal two-handed melee weapons, but can easily adapt to other tools of war when conjuring their primal powers.
Shamans are brutal melee fighters capable of unleashing the power of lightning storms upon their foes. Those eager to release their primal side, to charge recklessly into battle and wreak havoc, will find the Shaman to be a perfect fit.
Features
Stormcaller
Shamans have an unparalleled control over lightning and storms. Every strike of their enhanced weapons delivers a devastating blow infused with electricity.
Untamed Savagery
Embracing their wild instincts, Shamans are bloodthirsty, yet exceptional, melee fighters, excelling at spilling the blood of their foes.
Animal Companions
Shamans form a pact with Mogdrogen, the beast god, allowing them to call animal allies to their side. Briarthorns, insect swarms and Mogdrogen’s guardian are all at your disposal.
Skills
Primal Strike
“The first rite undertaken by novice Shamans is to imbue their favored weapon with the raw force of a thunderstorm. Those that survive this critical step become scions to Mogdrogen’s will and guardians of their people. This attack requires a Two-Handed Melee weapon.”
Wind Devil
“Shamans were often called upon to bring rain in times of heavy drought. This ritual has been manipulated by clever Stormcallers to conjure a swirling wind devil that lifts rocks and debris into the air, battering foes and ravaging them with the harsh power of the elements.”
Wendigo Totem
“Wendigo Totems represent a darker side to Shaman rituals, embracing the vicious duality of nature: one must die so that another may feed and live. Once placed, the totem will drain the life from nearby foes, all while creating a soothing aura that heals allies. The totems are taboo to most tribes though as the primal hunger spirit invoked to power the totem is perilous to control and has driven many shamans mad, filling them with an insatiable hunger that inevitably leads to cannibalism.”
Summon Briarthorn
“Briarthorns are tenacious beasts, born of brambly woods and wild magic. Skilled Shamans can call upon these creatures to aid them in battle. Only one Briarthorn can be summoned at any one time.”
