(All buffs and debuffs last for 3 rounds unless otherwise specified.)Īt rest, the Occultist will attempt communion with the dark and impossible forces of the void in an effort to strengthen himself and the party. Note: New Occultists will always come with the Wyrd Reconstruction skill. The void, however, is an unpredictable power, and consequently skills effectiveness can vary dramatically, and usually come at a cost of light, or stress. Debilitating curses and maddeningly impossible support skills are his specialty.

The gate to hell is open, and this man will seal it away with the very power it gave him.Ī lifetime of scholarly inquest into ancient and forbidden lore has opened the Occultist's mind to the powers of the void. At camp, he practices rituals and rites that can empower his allies and even bring them back from the brink of death, but many of these eccentric practices can leave both the Occultist and his companions troubled. This technique is powerful, but unpredictable as it may restore a man to perfect health or tear apart their flesh. While mostly destructive, the Occultist can also use his profane powers to reconstruct flesh and heal wounds. His eldritch powers can rend the souls of even the most foul of beasts leaving them motionless, but at the cost of calling the ever-looming shadows closer. With his curses, he can expel a foe's strength or open them up for devastation. From the back, he can channel his baleful energy to strike those hiding in the shadows or pull them forward, removing all filth from his presence. His pursuits in antediluvian apprehension have left his body fragile and weak, but it has made his mind sharp and his capabilities most versatile. The Occultist, however, has utilized that same knowledge to further his understanding of the eldritch. Many have sought it out, but those who discover the truth of this world's secrets have found the revelations too much to bear.

Since time began, it has been the folly of men such as the Ancestor.
