About this class

When you have a cause, you’ll stop at nothing to see it done, revolutionists take this ideal to the extreme. While often physically impressive, revolutionists’ true skills lie in their ability to fight for a cause and rally others to their side. They commonly begin as ordinary folk living in a place of control or misconduct of those in power, but become radicalised against a side and seek to see it’s end, either through organised protests or violent uprisings, often both. Their pull over the wants and fears o people to aid their cause is the revolutionist’s primary trait.

  • The Cause

    As part of your character creation, work with your GM to create an additional experience that sums up the cause that you fight for, this starts at +3 and can be increased when leveling up as normal. When you make a roll that utilities this experience, gain a Zeal regardless of the result. Start with 3 Zeal, this reflects your personal momentum for your cause and can be spent on furthering it’s ideals. Additionally, when preparing as a downtime action, you can choose to gain 1d4 Zeal instead of a Hope.
