Cleric
From Adventure Band
(Redirected from Mystic)
The Cleric is a spellcaster who gains the power to work miracles by following a spiritual regimen of meditation and rituals. The word "cleric" is a bit of a misnomer because a cleric doesn't have to be affiliated with an organized sect. We use the word "cleric" because it's the term for this class in other games (both 5E and Pathfinder). In Adventure Band, clerics don't get their powers directly through prayer. They practice rituals prescribed by a sacred mystery and thereby gain spiritual powers.
Creating a Cleric
Unlike other classes, an Archetype is required.
Archetypes to be developed:
When you take your first level in a cleric class, you gain
- Whatever free stunts are provided by your archetype
- Two additional stunts, which you can choose from any list you have access to: your Ancestry, Archetype, background, or any unrestricted stunts you want.
- Three first-level spells
Consider taking an Aspect related to your creed and/or your position in a religious order -- or outside it!
Spells
Recommended Skills

- Will prepares the cleric to face supernatural opponents such as fiends and undead.
- Academics is appropriate for clerics who have formal education.
