April/May Theme Poll

We are doing something a little different for this poll. 

Due to all the interest and questions we've been receiving from people on social media asking us about our world and the ongoing war between the Blank and the Arcanuum we want to better develop both sides by doing a two-month long release, (one faction released in April, and one in May) but we need your help! 

Which faction do you want to see first, AND which subclass do you want to see used for that faction?

Factions                                                                                                                   

The Blank

Zealots who hate magic, deny gods, and rely entirely on advanced technology, robotics, and arcanhile, an antimagic substance, to destroy spellcasters, magic items and magical creatures. Led by the Nameless Man, the Blank is an incredibly powerful faction that controls vast regions, forcing magic from the land. 

Love them or hate them the Blank are a  faction of technologically advanced, mage-killing elitists. This release will feature new constructs, blank soldiers, high-tech weapons, and technologically enhanced creatures. If rifles, constructs, and arcanapunk gear is what you want, join the Blank and put down those pesky spellcasters! 

The Arcanuum 

Called freedom fighters by some, and terrorists by others the Arcanuum works in secret to thwart the plans of the Blank. Arcanuum members seek to preserve magic by any means necessary, whether that means casting fireball into a crowded street or ferrying fledgling spellcasters from Blank-controlled regions in secret. 

This release focuses on new spellcasters and magical monsters. If powerful magic, strange creatures, and fighting for your cause no matter the cost is what you desire, join the Arcanuum in Magic and Mayhem. 

The Subclasses                                                                                                            

Barbarian Path of the Mageslayer - The Blank

The Barbarian Path of the Mageslayer is a subclass of technology-enhanced warriors able to resist the effects of magic owed to their physical augmentation. If invulnerability to the spells of beholders, insane mages, or enhancing your physical form with machinery is what you seek, the path of the Mageslayer is for you. 

Paladin Oath of Antimagic - The Blank

The members of the Blank don't use magic and some paladins are so dedicated to the cause of rooting out magic and destroying it they take the oath of antimagic, enhancing themselves with cybernetic augmentations that allow them to cast "spells" to defeat mages. Focused on counterspells, antimagic, and mage slaying, if you always wanted to fuse technology, warrior's training, and a strange "not" magic, this is the subclass for you. 

Paladin Oath of Secrecy - The Arcanuum

The arcanuum is made up of more than mages, some paladins take an oath to protect the magic users of the Arcanuum or those that work in secret. These mysterious paladins focus on keeping the secrets of others, silencing those who might spread their secrets, and act as assassins, guardians, and more. If you have always wanted to play a mysterious soldier stepping from the shadow, this is the subclass for you. 

Barbarian Path of the Mad Mage - The Arcanuum

Some barbarians are enhanced with magic afforded to them by the Arcanuum allowing them to cast spells or enhance their attacks with magical powers. If you've ever wanted to play a swole-gandalf, this is the subclass for you. 

Be sure to vote on your favorite faction/theme and subclass, really looking forward to fleshing this out!
