The Heroes¶
Alrinkiri¶
Mask¶
Two large, circular eyes of red pigment broken by concentric rings of tiny black beads set into shallow grooves. Below the eyes, a narrow, rectangular face extends, made of shingled, bright yellow fish scales.
"As the wandering glider I have been. From now on, when I wander further a piece of this place shall wander with me."
Mask Power¶
Alrinkiri finds that if they relax their muscles while wearing the Wandering Glider mask, their face turns gently toward the distant Napsune Mountains. Somehow they know that is their location. That is where they must go! Something is there for them. Their mask shows them the way and protects them.
The mask pulls them to the Napsune Mountains
- 1/day Show the Way
- Trap finder feat
Branches¶
Primary: Uzunjati
*Secondary: Tempest-Sun
Thesis¶
Working with Ahassunu to rediscover their old memories.
Alrinkiri now feels drawn to the Northwest. They can almost hear the echoes of names… Teskra … Syrasis … The Winding Way … Eternal Oasis … Inperantike Rakiendos. The last mysterious name creates a twang of fear in Alrinkiri's deepest being.
In Shadow Jula Kiri found stolen old texts from the Jistka Imperium… there is a whisper of a place the Shadow Maagambya was researching in the Napsune Mountains. This information was sent back to the school for further research.
Chimwemwe¶
Mask¶
Long, narrow bronzed beak with a tear drop shaped head, and iridescent blue feathers.
Mask Power¶
Once per day as a free action the feathers light up, constellations glowing as bright as a torch when realigns crystal on his bracer. This changes the energy type of his Megavolt from electricity to frost, fire, acid, or sonic for 10 minutes.
- Change megavolt energy type to frost, fire, acid
- Change megavolt energy type to sonic, and for 10 minutes
Branches¶
Primary: Cascade
*Secondary: Uzunjati
Thesis¶
Astrological principles of time and place.
In Shadow Jula Chim explicated his thesis in much greater detail, using his time on that plane to study the differences and similarities in the stars.
Akoril¶
Mask¶
A nearly ephemeral lattice that he weaves feathers, both real and just the magical idea of feathers.
"I am Akoril, I am the Glimmering Hyena."
Mask Power¶
Once a day as a free action Akoril can drain his mask, making it shimmer brightly as it aligns his mind to the surrounding ley-lines, granting him a wizard metamagic feat of half his level or lower for 10 minutes.
- 1/day metamagic of 1/2 level for 10 min
- 1/day single action can create a distortion lens
Branches¶
Primary: Emerald
*Secondary: Tempest
Thesis¶
Something about the interconnected flow of magic and how ley lines power everything.
Akoril is teaching Binji, and her Broom of Wonder twisted ly lines to show him new ways to bend reality.
Wisps¶
"I am Curling-Wisps-of-Smoke Reliava. I am the Blazing Spider."
Wisps beads and white feathers decorate the top, with sides that look like smoking embers. The surface is covered with small gray feathers and two large pointy beads like a spider's fangs.
Mask Power¶
The smoking embers on Wisps' Blazing Spider Mask begin to actually smoke when she performs. Luckily, the red-hot embers are harmless… at least, to her. Once per day she can make the smoky wisps curl around her like a spider's web, making ghostly illusions of a story to give her a +2 circumstance bonus to a check involving storytelling. She can use this to bolster any check where visual figments might be appropriate, such as performance, deception, diplomacy, etc. After that, the embers go cold.
- 1/day +2 circumstance bonus to a check involving storytelling. She can use this to bolster any check where visual figments might be appropriate, such as performance, deception, diplomacy, etc.
- 1/day performance reroll
Branches¶
Primary: Emerald
*Secondary: Tempest
Thesis¶
Anadi history at the Maagambya.
Wisps also studied the shadow-Maagambya in Shadow Jula, learning that their school was founded by a consortium of wizards and is a twisted versino of everythign the Maagambya stands for.
