Shaman

The enigmatic ritualists called Shamans hail from the wintry northernlands of Hashan. The class was born in 288 A.F. of the modern age, when Firefox Sly opened the guild of Shamans to the world. Drawing their strength from the darker side of mysticism, the class of Shamans is not inherently aligned with any ethos. However, they tend to draw those who embrace the secrets of the shadows more readily than the light.

Forsaking their ties to the earthen magics, Shamans embrace the power of Spiritlore, allowing them to seek out and bind long-lost spirits into their body. These spirits grant a multitude of new powers, as well as augment their existing abilities in Vodun and Curses.

Spiritlore

Upon entering a trance, practitioners of Spiritlore may bind the spirits of one or more ancient spirits to them, augmenting the Shaman's already impressive arsenal of abilities with new features. Additionally, one may choose to further attune oneself with a particular spirit and unlock even greater powers. The most skilled practitioners are even rumoured to be able to attune themselves with multiple spirits, or even of being able to sever their spirit from their body and traverse incorporeally.
