[Divine] NPC - Divine Champion (of the Aureliate)

Added 2022-08-29 14:02:00 +0000 UTC

If you need an Aureliate god antagonist, here they are. At minimum, this champion will work for any god and will be a moderately strong encounter, but things get very interesting once you bring in the legendary actions. The legendary actions are designed to reflavor this champion to a scion of their god - the first one grants it a combat-long buff for their god, and the others improve their combat prowess. Each one has movement and attack legendary actions, which will stack with their bonus damage and make them pretty deadly if they can catch you.

Imagine if two champions were to work together ...

Where gods cannot directly interfere with the affair of mortals, they select special champions to execute their whims. Gods typically offer their power to the most faithful of their followers with an unshakable belief secured by equally unbreakable will, though rare moments of desperation see them bestow a lost soul with the title.

These ascended devotees are almost like divine angels, imbued with divine favors in the form of radiant weaponry, protection, and magic. They wander the mortal plane wielding the might of their gods like a precise scalpel. Champions of good deities seek battle against ancient terrors that would make commonfolk crumble while champions of evil secretly work to topple civilizations. Those with neutral intent are allowed to act according to their own convictions.
