Next #Stonetop playbook: the Lightbearer.
I’m trying to make the world of Stonetop feel fairly “low magic,” and so far I’ve avoided any serious mojo in the playbooks. The Judge has some Censure & a bunch of truth-related stuff, and the Heavy has the Storm-Marked background, but this is the first spellcaster.
My goal here was to create a divine spellcaster who still fit in a low-magic world. To that end, they don’t really cast spells. Rather they can consecrate a flame and then invoke their god’s power into the light it casts.
Flavor-wise, I had a lot of things in mind while working on this: evangelism, Sufism, Gandalf, gnosticism & Plato, Revelation, a little bit of Johnny Cash.
Anyhow, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.
Feedbeck welcome & appreciated!

Totally gorgeous, love the invocations. Not usually attracted to the cleric, but the specificity here is so appealing. Would love to play with this.
Thanks, Dirk! I’m pretty proud of this one.
