Priest

Classes Designed by Joseph Cittadino • Art by Steven Belledin, Eric Deschamps, and Anna Steinbauer

About this class

Priests are anointed messengers, chosen by divine aspects like deities, cosmic forces, or powerful celestials and fiends, to be their conduits into the world. Nothing can separate a priest from their divine aspect save death, and many are unsure of even that. Priests have charisma both natural and divine, winning others to their side as easily as they call down divine judgment on their foes. Priests spend time working on growing their relationship with their divine aspect, proselytizing, or creating places of worship.

Class features

  • Divine Domain

    Choose a Domain other than Splendor or Grace that is thematically fitting for your divine aspect; that Domain becomes your Divine Domain. When you take a domain card, you can choose cards from your Divine Domain up to half your level (rounded up). When you select your Divine Domain, take a card from it you qualify for. You also gain an additional Loadout Slot that can only be used for cards from your Divine Domain.

  • Miracle Worker

    At the beginning of each session, you gain Miracle Tokens equal to your Spellcast Trait. When you or an ally within Far range fails any die roll, you can spend a Miracle Token to let that creature re-attempt the roll. You clear all Miracle Tokens at the end of each session.

  • Thaumaturgy

    You can perform harmless, subtle magical effects related to your both your Divine Domain and the divine in general at will, such as turning water into wine, causing an object or your body to glow with light, making flowers and plants bloom if Sage is your Divine Domain, or making your eyes turn jet black and your voice sound demonic if Dread is your Divine Domain.

Class items
