Air Shaman
Description
|
Air Spirits are often called zephyrs and live on wind swept plains or high in the mountains. They embody both the brutal power of storms and the gentle breeze of spring. Their personalities are often mercurial and they can be unpredictable. They may be playful and energetic, but anger them at your peril as they make deadly foes. The wielders of air spirit magic tend towards agility and intelligence, solving problems with speed and wits over brute force. They are most often seen with ranged weapons.
Spirit Powers
With each rank the shaman gains either improved spirit stats for Manifest Spirit or an additional Imbue Power as well as a spell of that rank. Additional spells may be purchased for 2 GXP x Rank.
