Divine fighters and healers appointed by their god, seraphs are imbued with sacred purpose. A wide array of deities exist within the realms, and thus there are numerous different types of seraph. The ethos of each member of this class traditionally aligns with the domain of their god including such missions as: defending the weak, enacting vengeance, protecting a land or artifact, and upholding a faith. Some seraph ally themselves with an army or locale, much to the satisfaction of their rulers, but some of these crusaders fight in opposition to the follies of the Mortal Realm. It is better to be an ally to a seraph, as they are terrifying foes to those who defy their purpose.
Class Features
Seraph's Hope
Spend three Hope and either reroll a Prayer Die or refresh one of your used Prayer Dice.
Prayer Dice
At the beginning of each session, roll a number of d4 dice equal to your Spellcast trait and store them to the right. You can spend one or more of these dice at any time to aid yourself or an ally within Far range. You can use the spent die’s value to reduce any incoming damage, add to any roll result after the roll. Additionally, you can instead exchange the value for that many Hope you can give to any PC in range. Clear these dice at the end of each session.
