- “Fear not, friends, for we do the work of the gods.”
Prerequisite: Cleric
When evil bubbles up from the Abyss and spills into
the world, when insane hordes raid and plunder civilized lands, or when lawlessness threatens society,
you fight back to preserve the world. You shoulder
this burden willingly, but you can lighten the load
by uniting your companions behind your holy mission. You lead through your inspiring presence, wise
words, and brave deeds, with the goal of one day
ushering your allies to the glory that awaits bold
champions of your faith.
You are a soldier of your god, but not a proselytizer. All deities and their servants have a place in
the world. Your role is to unite disparate beliefs and
achieve a common victory. Your tolerance, however,
does not extend to those agents of ruin who would
subvert your harmonious message with their ambition and greed.
When you sing hymns and recite scripture in
battle, a silver halo appears above your head as a
symbol of your belief and divine blessing. Its light fills
your comrades with hope and purpose, helping them
to rise above the mundane and seize their destinies.
Battle Chaplain Path Features
Battle Chant (11th level): Whenever an ally
hits an enemy that is adjacent to you, you can mark
that enemy. The mark lasts until the end of your next
turn. If the enemy marked by you makes an attack
that does not include you as a target, you can shift 1
square as a free action.
Shielded Priest (11th level): You gain proficiency with light and heavy shields.
Stirring Action (11th level): When you spend
an action point to make an attack, one ally adjacent
to you or to the target of your attack can also make
a melee basic attack as a free action, with a bonus to
the attack roll equal to your Strength modifier.
Deeds not Words (16th level): When you bloody
an enemy, reduce an enemy to 0 hit points, or score a
critical hit with a melee attack, an ally adjacent to you
gains a bonus to damage rolls equal to your Strength
modifier until the start of your next turn.
