Homebrew Classes

### **The Alchemist**

***While many people of many walks of life have dabbled in potion making and chemistry, the Alchemist is a class option for those who wish to dedicate themselves wholly to mad science and crazy concoctions.***

### **The Alivener**

***Versed in the arts of Animation and Transmutation, Aliveners grant life to the non-living. Whether hired by gang leaders to create personal militias, contracted by governments to build security, or organized privately to agendas only they are privy to, Aliveners employ their talents to a myriad of uses.***

### **The Arcanist**

***While a Wizard's magic is borne of studious commitment and diligent practice and a Bard's is borne of art that resonates with creation, an Arcanist derives their power from an obsessive study and borderline worship of the Weave and it's inner workings. This makes for spellcasters that make up for in versatility and cunning what they lack in casting power.***

### The Bard (magic-less)

***While most are familiar with the Bard who's music echoes the music of creation, who can sing life back to their allies and strum magic through their guitars, more should be aware of the less fortunate, but nonetheless talented Bards who wield no magic at all. These Bards embrace any number of art styles, managing to inspire and influence not through magic, but through the beauty and mastery of their art.***

### **The Demigod**

***The offspring of one of the Aesar and a mortal race (usually human, but not necessarily), demigods are gifted with incredible physical strength and endurance as well as partial control over their parent’s domain. Whether the child or grandchild, genetic powers can recur after many generations.***

### **The Lightbender**

***Whether wandering sage, righteous warrior, or healer, the Lightbender weaves magic through faith and emotion to conjure weapons, smite evil, travel vast distances, and heal wounds. Also called Enathim, they serve as formidable scions of the celestial planes.***

### **The Mystic (But Good)**

***While some waste away in the stodgy, old magic schools of stifling academia, others tap into the music of creation, and still others call upon nature or deities to aid them in their times of need. Falling neatly outside of these categories is an old and (dare I say it) mystic power known as Psionics. The origin of such power varies from individual to individual: some may have been cursed or scarred by an encounter with an ancient power like an Aboleth or a Mind Flayer; some may have learned this power through meditation and strict self-discipline; some may have simply woken up one day to find they could move things with their minds. Regardless of origin, wielders of psionics are not to be underestimated. (Though far less so than if they were from Unearthed Arcana)***

### **The Shaman**

***Followers of more Animistic teachings than Druids and more primal teachings than Clerics, Shamans commune with the spirits that live in all things. Because of this, their magic is more of an alliance between two equal beings rather than a dominance of one by the other. The Shaman does not serve nature, nor nature the Shaman. They come to an agreement with the other spirits. Shamans are known as teachers, witch doctors, healers, medicine men, and are innately and spiritually in tune with the natural world.***

### **The Shifter**

***Shifters, as the name implies, are united in their ability to change their bodies into that of other creatures. In tune with nature and animals, the Shifter’s form is fluid, taking the shape of whatever creature best suits their needs.***

### **The Witch**

***Tapping into the dark and mysterious powers of the occult, Witches are feared and beloved by the superstitious and underestimated by everyone else. Though similar in many ways, the difference between Witchcraft and Wizardry should not be ignored. While both gain power through study and practice, Wizards combine knowledge and discipline to shape the Universal Arcane while Witches learn ways to bend it to their will by tapping into strange and dark forces.***
