ENTERTAINER
As the Thrones limit education and literacy amongst their people, the majority of storytelling, record-keeping, and entertainment is performed by wandering bards and poets. The role of these individuals in society has thus become performative, administrative, and educational. As adventurers, they boost party morale and are an excellent resource for lore and knowledge of the world and its locales.

SORCERER
Tarisia was once a verdant paradise, until the arrival of corruptive magics that drain the life from its land and fauna. A Sorcerer wields this terrifying and defiling power by harnessing the very life from the surrounding land and people. These magic users are universally feared and often persecuted or imprisoned if caught publicly.

SWORDHAND
Tarisia is a world at constant war. City-States battle each other for control of valuable resources and the people struggle against the deadly environment. Individuals trained in battle are often conscripts of war, or militia trained to defend their homes from the lethal fauna, but occasionally you’ll find a warrior with no allegiances except his own. These are the so-called Swordhands of Tarisia.
