Mysteries of the Realm

Branded Soldier Mysteries of the Realm

In-game Description

Bearers forced to fight for the nations that enslaved them. Able to cast powerful magicks yet entirely disposable, they are often placed on the front lines in battle, or assigned to highly dangerous scouting or assassination missions.

An Inescapable Fate

Bearers forced to fight for the nations that enslaved them. To stymie the urge to flee, the penalty for desertion is death, and soldiers are encouraged to keep a close watch on each other to prevent others from doing so—the Brand upon a soldier’s cheek presenting an additional obstacle. And so most follow their orders, turning steadily to stone with each draw on the aether—to lose one’s life to the curse being lauded as a hero’s death.
