Conduit ~ Divine Servant Specialty

Themes: Divine magic channeled directly through the self—pure, unfiltered power of the gods made manifest.

Description: Your deity allows you to channel light or dark energies without a miracle being required.

Added Grace: You typically gain grace by demonstrating the power of your god - either by impressing others by means of its use, or inviting it directly into you.

Benefit: Through your deity’s blessing, you gain a sacred spell. After prayer each day you gain heal or harm spells, depending on your deity. The spell your deity provides is listed in the Divine Font entry for your deity; if both are listed, you can choose between heal or harm. Once you choose, you can’t change your choice short of an ethical shift or divine intervention.

The Sacred Spell can be used a number of times per day equal to your Combat Mastery. It’s level is equal to your Divine Servant tier.

Conduit Evolutions

Core (10): Avatar’s Pulse — Once per day, you harness a trickle of your deity’s power. For 1 minute, your aura increases by one step, you emit bright light [holy] or darkness [unholy] in a 30’ radius, and you gain damage resistance 3.

Core (20): Overflowing Font - Whenever you cast your Sacred Spell, choose one additional minor effect:

  • Heal: Target also gains resistance 2 to all damage until the start of your next turn.

  • Harm: Target also takes a –1 status penalty to attack rolls until the end of its next turn.

Whenever you heal or cause damage via a Font, the power erupts outward — all allies within 10 ft gain temporary HP equal to your INS (if Heal) or all enemies within 10 ft take 1d6 spirit damage per tier (if Harm, basic ZEN save).

Core (30): Pure Vessel – Your Divine Font ignores resistance to its damage type. Healing from it also restores creatures normally immune to magical healing (like constructs or undead, depending on your deity’s allowance). Additionally, your SPR is considered 2 higher for purposes of determining the outcome of a deity using you as a vessel.

Core (40): Accords of Bestowment - You gain your deity’s blessing and as an action can bestow it upon others at your discretion. You may grant it to a number of creatures equal to your SPR, but for every two you grant your ZEN is reduced by 1 (Rounded up: 3 Bestowments is a loss of 2 Zen). Any creature benefiting from the Accords receives empowered Fonts if you channel positive, and you can target them with most Miracles and Sacred spells at a range of 30’ as if they were adjacent to you. Finally, you know the Status of any creature affected by the Accords, regardless of their distance as long as they are on the same plane. You may dismiss an Accord at any time as an action, but must refresh the bestowment once per week.

Core (50): Incarnation - You have become the perfect Conduit, channeling divine energy without limit. Gain the following benefits:

  • Your Font Sacred Spell can be cast once per round without consuming a use, making it considered at-will.

  • Your Font casting time is reduced by 1 action.

  • You never incur drawbacks from possession or serving as a vessel to your deity. Other deity’s cannot impose their will upon you, granting you a Critical Success against all effects except by those committed by a Prime Avatar - and even those you gain advantage against.

  • You gain a +2 bonus to all saves against spells from the Divine Tradition.
