THE VAN DOCKS’ ARSENAL OF ARMIGERS V0.9.2

beta launch - updated august 17, 2023
<link to original Google document>
We dedicate this book to our gaming group—Abigail, Daron, Genesis, Luke, Parker, Teleia, and
Thomas. This wouldn’t exist without you all, and we wouldn’t want it without you anyways. May our
campaigns be long, our sessions filled with fun, and our stories transformative. And, of course, here’s to
more natural 20’s!
Based on the “Vanguard” class concept by Blake Cargill.
ON THE COVER
The Van Dock twins—Seraphine, a cunning wizard,

and Dalin, a charming armiger—arrive from their
portal, ready to strike the creatures waiting for them
on the other side with Dalin’s arsenal of bonded
weapons.

CHANGELOG (v0.9 to v0.9.2)
NEW CONTENT :
• Final subclasses! (These’ll be the last subclasses for a while. 12 is plenty!)
• Harbor Inheritance (subclass). Focused on turning their armory into a habitable demiplane and on invoking aspects of their
armory into the world, harbors are a utility subclass that provides plenty of support for exploration and downtime.
• Osmose Inheritance (subclass). Absorbers who can integrate their bonded weapons into their bodies and can even learn to
absorb parts of other creatures. This shapeshifting subclass provides a lot of versatility for players who like options.
• Temperament Inheritance (subclass). Powerful empaths, temperaments are psychic sponges that can funnel strong emotions
into a rage-like state, but this can drain them. A high-risk/high-reward class with plenty of Insight-related utility!
• All subclasses have a descriptions page with a d20 table for relevant character traits to help flesh out your armiger! :)
• New Feats section with some new weapon manipulator-related feats!
MODIFICATIONS/CHANGES:
• The Armiger’s Armory feature is now an extradimensional plane (not a demiplane), and you can bring people into it for a limited time
at 1st level. We also clarified the rules regarding what happens when you die and how the armory interacts with extradimensional
items. (The ability to turn it into a demiplane is now a feature of the new Harbor Inheritance subclass and will also be an ability
provided by a soon-to-be-developed magic artifact.)
• While a weapon is bonded to you, you can now ignore the Heavy property. This made sense to us since you can control a heavy
weapon with Telumkinesis anyways. May as well just ignore the property entirely.
• We moved the ability to regain links from the 6th-level Greater Bonds feature to 2nd-level and made it its own proper feature called
“Draw Power”. This significantly changes the armiger’s power level and resource management!
• Renamed the 4th-level “Other Connections” to “Connection Style” and added the ability to swap out benefits every time you get an
ASI - according to the new precedent from TCoE.
• Due to the changes to the 1st-level Armiger’s Armory feature, the 14th-level Manifested Armory feature has been changed, too. It’s
functionally the same but with some additional addendums and clarifications.
• The Avowed’s “Better Together” feature has moved the ability to cast a cantrip as a bonus action after attacking into a link feature
(called Spellweave) due to concerns that the BA cantrip was a little too much.
• The Caper’s Unconventional Bonds feature now allows bonded improvised weapons to be thrown (20/60) when used in a Grand
Strike to make up for their smaller damage dice. And the Caper can bond with an improvised weapon as an action once per long rest
This page is intentionally
(instead of as a 1 Minute ritual).
• The Caper’s Razzle-Dazzle link feature is now limited to a number of creatures equal to your Charisma modifier instead of all
designated creatures within range. left blank.
• The Spartan now gets proficiency in Tinker’s Tools and Woodcarver’s tools (both, not just one!), and we threw in expertise when using
Smith’s tools.
• The Spartan’s Modified Grand Flurry link feature has been buffed and clarified!
• The Spartan’s “Power of the Bond” feature has been replaced with “Dedicated Fighter” which gives them a Fighter’s fighting style and
a new link feature called One Powerful Blow.
• The Spartan’s Break Through Immunity link feature has been replaced with the Tour De Force link feature that builds on synergies
from the new One Powerful Blow link feature.
CLARIFICATIONS/ERRATA:
• Clarified that Bonded Weapons doesn’t take up an attunement slot but that you may attune to a weapon and bond to it simultaneously
(if the weapon has the option for or requires attunement).
OTHER:
• We added Alucard from Castlevania to the inspiration list.
• Countless typo’s and minor rewordings because art affects layout and vice-versa. C’est la vie.
• ART, DESIGN, AND ILLUSTRATION IS NOT FINAL!

Docks have been putting together a formal dossier on their
investigations into armigers. This is that document.
Using This Document

One of the most important parts of bringing a character
concept to life in Dungeons & Dragons is the class (and
subclass) you choose. Often, this is a difficult task that requires
you to juggle multiple considerations—your personal vision,
the effectiveness of the options, the party composition, house
rules, restriced sourcebooks, etc. So, it can be frusturating
when you can’t get a character built in a way that satisfies your
concept, especially when it’s due to a lack of good options.
Therefore, this document is hopefully a help in turning your
concepts to reality by providing new options that fill a trope that
we believe hasn’t been thoroughly covered—the bladedancer,
swordmancer, weaponmage, telekinetic weapon manipulator,
master of levitating blades. Whatever you want to call it, if
you’ve ever wanted to sling a sword, this is for you.
Notably, we’re not trying to provide "gish" options. Hybrid
mage-fighters have been done the world over. Our focus is on
weapon manipulaion, not spellcasting with a sword.

Armiger Inheritances - Subclasses
As an armiger grows, they inevitably bond to something that
becomes fundamental to their being. This thing—whether
concept, ideal, object, place, or person is more than another
connection; it influences the armiger and imparts them with
unique abilities. As such, these special bonds are called
“inheritances”, and though armigers of the same inheritance
might share similarities in ability, each armiger may be bonded
to something completely unique.
Armiger inheritances are detailed in Part 3 of this document.
Other Character Options (Preview)

The armiger by themself may not satisfy every person’s
execution for a weapon manipulator. We get that. Therefore,
we’ve developed a number of other character and class options
that might better suit your needs. From simple feats to entire
subclasses, we’re optimistic that you’ll find something that
works!
A preview of four feats we’ve developed for weapon
manipulator concepts is available in Part 4 of this document.
Future Chapters & Content

We’re not stopping at just a class, some subclasses, and a few
feats. We have big plans for the future of this project that add
so much more than just cool options. Some of the content will
extend to cover spellcaster options, general adjustments to the
canon 5e weapons, and more! Here’s a quick preview of the
other parts:
• Part 4: Other Character Options
• Part 5: Seraphine’s Spellbook of Swordmagic
• Part 6: Arsenal Armaments
• Part 7: Armigers of the Realm
• Part 8: Night at the Museum
You can read more about our future plans by checking out
page 75 of this document. Early ideas are detailed for the
curious!

If you want to help us see all of this through, please consider

thoughts, and ideas; try out the armiger in real play and let us
know how it goes; theorycraft the options in the book and try to
break them; or simply, share the project with your friends and
gaming groups. Thank you!

PART 2: The Armiger
LOG #3
Dalin’s recently learned to bond to multiple swords at once. Mot only has it made
him more of a competent fighter, it’s made him more inccorigible and irritating...
Weird. I’ve also noticed that you’ve gotten more annoying ever since I got up to five swords at
once. Hmm... Sister, are you jealous?
Armiger
The wealthy weapon collector raises his eyebrow at the
oncoming highwaymen. They assumed he was unarmed, and
while the collector had no weapon on his person, he wasn’t
without them. As his golden weapons begin to shoot out
from golden portals, the collector relaxes into the seat of his
carriage, comfortable knowing that the bandits would soon be
dealt with.
The charming dancer pleases the audience with her
impressive ax juggling, but the audience is completely
beguiled when the glowing axes suddenly disappear into thin
air. That is, except for the dancer’s quarry in the front row, who
suddenly feels a blade in his torso. Bounties paid more than
show business anyways.
The elven commander was a legend among their troops.
They were known for having lost both hands in battle, yes, but
they were even more well-known for being able to control their
vast collection of weapons with subtle movements of their
body. The saying went that so long as their commander could
move their eyes, the army would remain undefeated.
Armigers are manipulators of weapons in a way that no
one else is. Able to control weapons via the connections they
create with their arsenals, armigers aren’t just defined by their
unique power or by their incredible presence, but by their
bonds.

of themselves. Evolving and growing as they do, an arsenal
reflects the nature of its armiger in appearance, ability, and
more. An armiger’s power is more than their arsenals, however.
Armigers are charismatic figures with strong forces of
personality. The armiger’s charisma comes from the fact
that their powers are based on their ability to bond. Whether
with weapons or with people, armigers are especially apt at
connecting with things outside of themselves, though this
doesn’t mean all armigers are likable. Regardless, all armigers
are a force to be reckoned with, whether due to the power of
their personality or the power of their arsenals.
For Their Bonds

As much as armigers create and use their bonds, they are also
beholden to them and influenced by them in powerful ways.
Without their bonds, an armiger’s abilities suffer, and as many
armigers secretly fear, they are nothing without them.
As such, armigers are almost always adventurers. Whether
for gods, kingdoms, organizations, ideologies, or loved ones,
armigers undertake all manner of quests to strengthen their
bonds and grow new ones along the way. In doing so, an
armiger grows, too. So, even solitary armigers might keep a
pet, and even a malevolent armiger might keep a retinue or
close rival.

PART 3: Armiger Inheritances
LOG #10
Armigers are metaphysical conduits in a feedback loop. Their strongest connections
influence them and grant them their abilities, so then, they strengthen those
connections to grow in power. So on and so forth.

Avowed Inheritance
Avowed armigers wield power they could never have earned on their own. Perhaps this power was earned when their ancestors made
a deal with a devil, or maybe your armiger has been granted power so long as they maintain service to a deity or organization. Whether
blessing, curse, or something else, avoweds connect to the pacts and vows that source their power.
The arsenals of avoweds tend to reflect their loyalties. An avowed with ties to devils may have their armory appear as a smoldering
study with ebon bonded weapons crackling with hellfire; their links may appear as contracts tied around their waist. On the other hand,
an avowed sworn to protect a village may have an armory that mimics a well-known landmark, their bonded weapons may look like
local relics, and their links could appear as animated folktales tattooed on their body.
My temple has asked for your death. Don’t take it personally. — Lady Hecate, templar of the Crimson Way
Traits for an Avowed
Avowed armigers are made unique by the nature of their vow. Each armiger may be bound to a different agreement with a different
entity for different reasons, and it is in these specifities that one avowed armiger really stands out from another avowed.
Consider adding one or more of these traits when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Avowed Relationships to their Patron, Oath, or Vow
1 Zealous. You are unwaveringly loyal to your patron, oath, or vow, and will go to great lengths to fulfill your obligations even if it puts
you at odds or in danger.
2 Haunted. You are haunted by visions, dreams, or memories associated with your patron, oath, or vow, which serve as a constant
reminder of your commitment.
3 Watchful. You maintain constant vigilance to secret messages from your patron, oath,or vow, always on the lookout for signs, omens,
or threats. Others might call you superstitious or paranoid for reading into everything, but you just think you’re vigilant.
4 Marked. There is a physical or visible mark on your body that symbolizes your connection to your patron, oath, or vow, making you
easily identifiable to others. When you disobey, the mark burns.
5 Unsure. You believe that your patron, oath, or vow has orchestrated a great plan for you, but you aren’t sure what it is, causing you to
constantly seek out help or prophecies that guide your actions.
6 Vengeful. You took your patron, oath, or vow as a way to empower yourself for some greater vengenace or payback. It’s all a means
to an end. Perhaps your last act of vengeance will be to destroy the source of your powers.
7 Given. You were given to your patron, oath, or vow by someone else (and often at a young age). You didn’t have a choice. This might
bug you or not, since you don’t really remember life before from your patron, oath, or vow anyways.
8 Penant. You’ve previously broken an agreement with a patron, oath, or vow and now you seek redemption or a new purpose to regain
what you’ve lost. Your current patron, oath, or vow could be the same one as before, or it could be a new one entirely.
9 Powerhungry. You feel your connection is holding back on you and are constantly seeking ways to curry favor and increase your
abilities. But, you also fear the day you might lose all the power you’ve worked so hard to gain. You won’t let that happen.
10 Tormented. Your patron, oath, or vow is a constant burden, and you often find yourself plauged with doubt, guilt, or inner turmoil.
You may even be looking for a way to break your agreement—perhaps through death? Or perhaps not even death can free you?
11 Geasbound. Your are under a magical geas or binding that forces you to fulfill your obligations to your patron, oath, or vow, and
failure to do so comes with dire consequences.
12 Leveraged. You are compelled to stay true to your patron, oath, or vow because of what would happen if you didn’t. Perhaps the
leverage against you is a terrible secret you can’t let people know about, a loved one held as hostage, or something else.
13 Enigmatic. For whatever reason, you keep your connection a secret, and you purposefully try to keep the true source of your powers
hidden from others. Maybe this secrecy is demanded of you or maybe it’s for your own safety?
14 Vessel. Your patron, oath, or vow has branded you a vessel. Your presence and force of personality are otherworldly, and people often
mistake you for some kind of divine being. Or maybe people just see what you are becoming?
15 Remnant. You used to belong to an organization devoted to your patron, oath, or vow, but now you are the only one left to finish the
work that was started.
16 Curious. You committed to your patron, oath, or vow out of a deep desire to unravel its mysteries, but your endless curiosity often
puts you in dangerous situations. Curiosity killed the cat, but hopefully, satisfaction will bring it back.
17 Heretic. You were kicked out from a previous organization or institution because of your unorthodox connection to your patron, oath,
or vow. You may not have their support anymore, but you still have your commitments.
18 Ancestral. You are from a long line of people who have upheld the connection to your patron, oath, or vow, and you bear the weight
of familial expectations when it comes to fulfilling your end of the deal.
19 Fluke. You developed your connection and commitments by some kind of accident. Maybe a friend messed up the runic sigil that
was used to invoke the patron, oath, or vow... or maybe it wasn’t an accident after all?
20 Indebted. You took your patron, oath, or vow in a moment of need. Time passed, and nothing happened. So, you didn’t think it was a
big deal. That is, until the time came to fulfill your end of the agreement.

EMA MAILAY - Codename: Ace
Caper Armiger. Rumor has it she’s actually a dragon in
disguse, but so far we have yet to find any evidence.
Caper Inheritance
Few people expect to be struck by a playing card, a tankard, or a coin, and fewer expect it to hurt like it does when used by a caper
armiger. Capers are cunning, and they tend to eschew what other armigers consider convention to bond with almost anything. Often
capricious and charming, capers might moonlight as carnival performers, con men, or acrobats.
Capers’ oft changing arsenals reflect their improvisational nature. Armories might look like a marble amphitheater one day, a gaudy
caravan the next, and a grand ballroom the following day. Their bonded weapons might seem more like fashion accessories than
weapons. And, a single caper’s links can run the whole gamut from hard-to-notice to loud-and-obvious over the course of a day.
Here: you use that sword, and I’ll use this napkin. Let’s see who wins. — Lucky Lyle, regular tavern brawler
Traits for a Caper

Capers armigers are performative characters, and it is how they perform that can make one differ from the other. It doesn’t matter as
much whether one wields cards and another uses spoons for weapons, what really makes a caper distinct is their stylistic flair.
Consider adding one or more of these quirks and flairs when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Caper Quirks and Flairs
1 Stage Persona. You have a distinct persona that you adopt at specific times. Perhaps you assume a vigilante character when
adventuring, or you put on a flamboyant mask when you enter combat. You may have one or many different personas.
2 Dramatic Flourish. You have a tendency of adding extra gestures, poses, or vocal inflections to your every ection, making even simple
tasks seem like performances.
3 Fancy Speech. You speak in a specific and unusual way. Perhaps you use antiquated language, speak in flowery metaphors, or even
have every other sentence rhyme. Regardless, your speech is peculiar, distinct. and often an easy way to identify you.
4 Stage Fright. Despite your flair and showmanship, you suffer bouts of anxiety and nervousness anytime you are about to perform or
take attention, which only subsides once you finally step into the spotlight.
5 Superstitious Rituals. You have elaborate rituals and prepartions that must be done or else you feel “off” and have trouble doing
whatever you aim to do. It could be a specific warm-up routine, necessary meditation, or a personal mantra you always recite.
6 Perfectionist. You have an obsessive drive for perfection, constantly critiquing your own performance, seeking to improve, practicing,
and exploring new techniques—even if it means pushing yourself to the brink of exhaustion.
7 Personal Style. You have a distinct fashion sense that you rarely deviate from. Whether your personal costuming is flamboyant or
subdued, others can recognize you simply by what you wear.
8 Monologuer. You’re prone to break into impromptu monologues or soliloquies, even in everyday situations, much to the confusion,
amusement, or annoyance of those around you.
9 Peoplewatcher. You are fascinated with observing the behaviors and expressions of people around you, often mimicking them and
adopting their accents, mannerisms, or physicalities.
10 Move Announcer. You think its better when things have names, so you often announce your moves just before doing them. These
names could be straightforward (“surprise attack!”) or convoluted (“secret technique: surprise’s sudden striking sword slash”).
11 All about Appearances. You are known for your immaculate appearance, and your meticulous grooming to maintain your appearance
borders on neurotic (even psychotic!). People might fear your reaction should you ever be dirtied or soiled.
12 Nemesis Dependent. A hero is only as good as their nemesis, so you’ve worked to develop at least one meaningful rivalry. If you
don’t have at least one rival working to thwart you, you don’t know what you’d do.
13 Legend-in-the-Making. You want your life to be remembered long after your death, and that is why you actively try to be the stuff of
legends. Unfortunately, it also means you’d rather do unnecessary heroics or dangerous stunts than act mindfully.
14 New Life. Your early life was simple, drab, and dull, and perhaps that is why you now drool at the thought of living a life of
excitement. Whether you miss the old life or are glad its over, people who used to know you would be shocked to see you now.
15 Prankster. You enjoy playing silly antics and theatrical pranks to add an element of drama and surprise to the lives of people around
you. And, most of the time, your pranks are safe and good-natured... mostly...
16 Protagonist Syndrome. You are the main character of your own story. And to the chagrin of those around you, you are also the main
character of their stories, too.
17 Under Their Shadow. At least one of your parents was well-known, respected, and maybe even a celebrity. Hoping to get out from
under their shadow, you have a complex about being compared to them. You will be known for who you are, not for whose you are.
18 Ironically Terrible. Despite your delusions of grandeur, your actual artistic abilities are embarassing at best. But, that still doesn’t stop
you from giving it your all.
19 Lost Self. You’re so used to fake identities and playing characters that you aren’t really sure who you are anymore, so you spend way
too much time looking to find yourself. Are you even sure that your name is your name?
20 Compulsive Wit. You can’t let a single thing go unanswered. Whether you always have a particularly witty retort prepared or need to
make sure you get in the last word, silence isn’t golden when you’re around; it’s priceless.

Endurant Inheritance
Whether bad karma or bad luck, endurant armigers have experienced notable pain, brokenness, and injury. However, they did not find
defeat in their darkest hour. But power. Endurants connect to loss, suffering, courage, and hope. Though they might face derision or
discrimination, endurants are testimonies that nothing can stop an unstoppable force.
Endurants’ arsenals tell their tales like scars. One’s armory may look like the battlefield where they faced tragedy, their bonded
weapons rusted with blood, and their links represented as a phantom limb. Meanwhile, another’s armory may look like a place they
find refuge in—such as their childhood home or an infirmary—and their homely bonded weapons may be etched with names, their
links doubling as security blankets, such as lucky tokens or plush animals.
Handicapped?! HAH! I can do more with a wink than you can with your whole body. — Commander Xifeng
Traits for an Endurant

Though all endurants show remarkable tenacity, every endurant is scarred by their own tragedy. It is the nature of an endurant’s great
traumas that give meaning to their struggle to survive and overcome.
Consider adding one or more of these tragedies when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Endurant Tragedies
1 Loss of Loved Ones. You have experienced the pain of losing family members, close friends, or loved ones, leaving an emotional void
that is hard to fill.
2 Betrayal. You have been betrayed in a major way by someone you trusted, resulting in a deep sense of mistrust and difficulty forming
new connections.
3 Torture. You have endured immense physical and/or psychological torture in your past, leaving you with haunting memories and a
lingering fear of reliving those experiences.
4 Unknown Tragedy. You survived a tragedy so severe that you have supressed all memory of it. Whatever it was, you live in the
aftermath of that event, though you may not even realize it.
5 Disfigurement. You bear a physical disfigurement, such as scars, burns, or missing limbs. Whether the disfigurement is a natural
one you’ve had since birth or one inflicted upon you, it serves as a constant, traumatic reminder.
6 Solitary Imprisonment. You have spent a significant period of your life imprisoned, enduring confinement, isolation, or the cruelty of
captors. Perhaps you can’t remember the last time you saw sunlight or met someone who wasn’t your jailer?
7 Major Defeat. You have witnessed or been part of a brutal and devastating battle, resulting in traumatic memories and perhaps even
survivor’s guilt.
8 Assault. You’ve have survived a violent assault, leaving you with both physical and emotional scars that continue to affect your daily
life. Perhaps your assaulter(s) still live(s)? Perhaps you’ve already taken vengeance?
9 Forced Separation. You have experienced a forced separation from loved ones, such as being torn apart from your family, friends, or
home. Maybe you can never go back or maybe you’re fighting to return.
10 Childhood Abuse. Your experienced abuse during your formative years, leading to deep-seated emotional wounds that still impact
your behavior and relationships.
11 At Fault. Your have experienced a significant failure that resulted in dire consequences, leading to guilt, self-doubt, and a sense of
responsibility for the aftermath.
12 Harmful Addiction. You struggle or have struggled with a terrible addiction, whether it’s to substances, magic, or compulsive
behaviors, which have caused personal turmoil and strained relationships.
13 Lost Identity. You have lost your sense of identity, whether through amnesia, identity theft, or a traumatic event that shattered your
perception of self. Do you seek to find who you once were or to build the new person you are now?
14 Forced Servitude. You have been enslaved, coerced into servitude, or manipulated into a life of exploitation—resulting in a deep-
seated resentment towards authority. Your master(s) or previous master(s) may still be alive today, and they may want you back.
15 Cursed Bloodline. Your bloodline is somehow cursed, leading to unfortunate events, tragedy, or a constant struggle against your own
inherent nature.
16 Crisis of Belief. You have experienced a profound betrayal of your beliefs or principles, leading to a crisis of faith or a drastic shift in
your worldview.
17 Scarred Survivor. You have witnessed a horrifying massacre or genocide and made it out alive, leaving you traumatized and haunted
by the memories of the atrocity.
18 Harrowing Encounter. You had a terrible encounter with a malevolent supernatural entity, leaving you with haunting nightmares and
a persistent fear of the unknown.
19 Chronic Disease. You had or perhaps still have a debilitating disease, sickness, or other condition that has impacted your life.
Perhaps neither magic nor medicine has helped? Perhaps you still seek a cure or are trying to make most of the life you have left?
20 Traumatic Shame. Sometime in the past, you did something so terrible that you still carry the weight and heavy shame of it. Perhaps
you might still be reaping the condemning consequences of your actions? Maybe you always will?

Endurant Features Rise Above
Beginning at 7th level, you rise above your problems—
figuratively and literally. You gain a limited fly speed equal
to your walking speed. You hover with this fly speed, but you
cannot rise more than 1 foot off of the ground. This fly speed
cannot stop you from falling, but it cushions you as per the

When you choose this subclass, your Telumkinesis is replaced
with Basic Telekinesis. This functions like Telumkinesis,
except the range is extended to 60 feet, you can also
telekinetically manipulate any unattended object that weighs
less than 10 pounds, and you can use your Basic Telekinesis
as a bonus action or as an action instead of just an action.
Because your telekinesis is more versatile than
Telumkinesis, you can achieve a variety of harmless effects—
such as manipulate or use an object, open an unlocked door or
container, stow or retrieve an item from an open container, or
pour the contents out of a vial.
You also learn the Telekinetic Projectile link feature.
Telekinetic Projectile (1+ Links)
As a bonus action, you can expend 1 or more links to hurl one
loose, unattended object within 60 feet of you that weighs 10
pounds or less. Make a ranged spell attack against a creature
within 60 feet. You are proficient with this attack and use
Charisma for the attack roll. If you hit, you deal bludgeoning,
piercing, or slashing damage (your choice) equal to 1d4 + your
Charisma modifier. For every link expended beyond 1, the
damage increases by 1d4 and the range increases by 5 feet.
Telekinetic Bonding
Also at 3rd level, you do not need to physically touch a weapon
to bond with it, though it must be within 5 feet of you during the
entirety of your bonding ritual. Additionally, you do not need to
touch a weapon to remove your bond from it, but it must also
be within 5 feet of you while you remove the bond. Finally, you
do not need to touch an item or piece of equipment in order to
transport it to your armory, but it must be within 5 feet of you.

Harbor Armiger.
“Rescues” children from their families
and takes them to her “orphanage”.
Yikes. Codename: Evil Stepmother
Harbor Inheritance
Even adventures can get homesick, and when they do, there are fet better to have around than a harbor armiger. Harbors connect to
familiarity, home, comfort, privacy, or safety. Whether home is a literal place or a concept, harbors develop extraordinary power over
their armory and over the physical environments around them.
Harbors’ arsenals often reflect their idea of home, whether that is a specific safe place, a memory, or something else. A harbor from
a coastal town may have a beachside armory, bonded weapons that smell of the sea, and links that appear as sand. Meanwhile, a
harbor who shelters escapees may have an armory that appears as a clandestine inn, bonded weapons that take the shape of symbols
of freedom or liberation, and links that symbolically communicate words of safety in thieves’ cant or some other hidden way.
Follow me quietly. I will shelter you. — Strelitzia, member of The Road of Liberty
Traits for a Harbor

Harbor armigers are identified by their armory demiplane, which becomes a manifest reflection of harbors in a much more salient way
than other armiger kin. Thus, what a harbor’s armory is says more about the harbor than they may even realize.
Consider having one or these specific armories when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Harbor Specific Armories
1 Ancestral Home. A recplica of your cherished family home or estate, carrying generations of history and memories, where the
portraits of ancestors adorn the walls, whispering tales of their triumphs and struggles.
2 Sacred Grove. A secluded grove or forest, perhaps even modeled after a sacred druidic site, where the ancient trees seem to sway in
harmony with a mystical presence.
3 Lighthouse Overlook. A cliffside lighthouse with a breathtaking view of the ocean, representing hope and guidance, where the distant
horizon holds the promise of uncharted lands and adventures.
4 Abandoned Library. A forgotten library filled with your knowledge, sparking curiosity and a thirst for learning, where long-lost tomes
reveal forgotten memories and secrets of your past.
5 Guildhall. A guildhall where you hone your skills, fostering a strong sense of camaraderie and belonging, where the clang of weapons
and the laughter of friends resonate through the halls even when no one is around.
6 Ruined Castle. The ruins of a once-grand castle, symbolizing past glory and fueling a desire for restoration, where ivy-clad walls echo
with the whispers of bygone royalty.
7 Whispering Caves. A network of caves where whispers echo mysteriously, holding secrets and ancient tales, where the soft
murmurings seem to tell of long-lost treasures and the mysteries of the subterranean world.
8 Elemental Nexus. A place where the elemental forces converge, resonating with your elemental affinities, where the air crackles with
energy, the earth trembles with power, and the water dances with life.
9 Hidden Grotto. Appearing like a hidden underwater cave filled with sourceless luminescence, representing discovery and mystique,
where the otherworldly glow from the depths radiates throughout.
10 Old Chapel. An old, fading chapel with a sense of sacred history and quiet reflection, where flickering candle flames dance in the
shadows of weathered statues, carrying the prayers of your past.
11 Musical Inn. A vibrant inn or tavern known with lively music emanating from an unknown source, fostering creativity and inspiration
and creating an atmosphere of celebration and artistic expression.
12 Enchanted Labyrinth. A magical labyrinth filled with riddles and tests, symbolizing self-discovery and growth, where hidden rooms
and parts of the armory have to be navigated via twists and turns.
13 Everburning Forge. A mythical forge that never goes out, representing a passion for craftsmanship and creation. The forge’s heat
and fire ebb and flow with your own passions.
14 Mirage Oasis. A mirage-like oasis surrounded by empty desert, holding secrets and mirroring the elusive nature of your dreams,
where the shimmering waters reflect images of dreams you’ve had recently.
15 Carnival of Wonders. A carnival filled with marvels and oddities, evoking a sense of wonder and nostalgia, where colorful tents are
beset with fantastical imagery. The mysterious sideshows are illusory representations of important moments in your life.
16 Dark Hideaway. A clandestine hideout with a dark exterior but a very homely and welcoming interior, creating a sense of safety and
privacy. The well-used blankets and rugs strewn throughout the hideaway feel like a comforting embrace.
17 Seasonal Glade. A glade untouched by time or age, offering respite and a connection to nature’s eternal cycle, where the seasons
quickly change but the glade remains unchanged, a sanctuary of timelessness.
18 Guardian Statue. Your armoary contains a majestic guardian statue, representing protection and courage. Most of the armory is
actually inside the statue, and it’s vigilant gaze seems to watch over and guide creatures inside.
19 Starlit Observatory. An observatory atop a mountain, offering a connection to the cosmos and a sense of wonder, where the vast
night sky becomes a canvas of your arsenal, creating constellations of your bonded weapons.
20 Foggy Monastery. A secluded monastery, serving as a serene and meditative retreat for quiet contemplation, where the silent haze
masks the sound of your heart, allowing for moments of inner peace.

Dearil? Daeril? Dayrill?
Codename: Blackblood
Lethe Armiger.
Likely a vampire (or worse?).
Caution: Unnervingly charming.
Can suddenly disappear.
Lethe Inheritance
The dark side of the moon. The sound of darkness. The entity beyond the sixth veil. Lethe armigers connect to things unknown, deathly,
forgotten, or dark. They are an omen and a reminder that there are things out there that exist beyond imagination and comprehension,
and lethes are often transformed in equally aberrant ways. They are easily mistaken for arcane tricksters, hexblade warlocks, or
shadow sorcerers, and their abilities make them natural assassins or bounty hunters.
Armories for a lethe could look like a basement hideaway, the deck of a pirate ship, or an empty void. Their bonded weapons tend to
take on strange and impossible appearances. When it comes to their links, lethes tend to possess subtler links than their peers, such
as esoteric tattoos hidden under their clothes or small amulets on their waist.
Transcend and become. — "Father"
Traits for a Lethe

All lethes are strange in ways that are hard to put to words, and yet not all abnormalities are the same. Every lethe manifests their own
unique peculiarities that can be weird, mysterious, and unusual.
Consider adding one or more of these abnormalities when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Lethe Abnormalities
1 Shadow Threads. Faint, wispy shadows trail behind you like ephemeral threads. These shadow threads can form intricate patterns
and obscure your presence a bit, creating an aura of intrigue and mystique.
2 Cursed Reflection. Your reflection in mirrors or still waters sometimes reveals an eerie and altered version of yourself. As you gaze
into these distorted reflections, you catch fleeting glimpses of an ominous figure that seems to watch your every move.
3 Enigmatic Eyes. Your pupilless eyes are dark orbs like an empty void, but in moments of intense concentration, they briefly reveal
mysterious runes. You have a deep rooted belief that these runes hold the key to the end of the world.
4 Occult Resonance. In eerie locations or during strange occurrences, your body emits an otherworldly hum or resonance. This noise
seems to emit from your heart, and for reasons you don’t quite understand, it sometimes changes volume and pitch.
5 Ephemeral Phantoms. Translucent apparitions briefly appear around you when you are injured, resembling figures from your past or
possibly from another realm. These ephemeral phantoms have never done or said anything, and you aren’t sure if they’re really there.
6 Veiled Shroud. A faint, dark veil seems to surround you, giving you the appearance of being in dim light even in bright light. So far,
you’ve yet to rid yourself of the veil, and as time goes on, you grow more attached to it.
7 Cryptic Whispers. You occasionally hear faint whispers of forgotten and impossible languages carried on the wind. As you listen
carefully, the whispers grow louder, but you have never been able to glean any meaning from them.
8 Sanguine Sigils. Intricate sigils mysteriously manifest on your skin whenever you come in contact with blood. The sigils seem to
change based on the blood’s owner, though you aren’t sure if they actually carry any information.
9 Reality Ripples. In moments of emotional turmoil, faint ripples distort the air around you, creating benign and harmless effects.
Though minor, these ripples are small distortions of reality.
10 Echoing Footsteps. In the quiet, you can hear ever-approaching footsteps. These footsteps get uncomfortably close but never arrive.
Something inside you fears when the footsteps finally catch up to you.
11 Jinxed. Objects nearby may malfunction or behave oddly in your presence, hinting at a mysterious curse affecting your life. Though
inconvenient at times, this cursed aura has yet to impact your life in any major way.
12 The Stare. Your gaze creates an unsettling feeling in others, making them subconsciously avoid making direct eye contact with you.
Whenever you ask what makes your gaze so unsettling, you can never get a satisfactory answer.
13 Etheric Twin. A spectral doppelgänger occasionally manifests, imitating your actions like an temporal echo. This ethereal twin
doesn’t seem to have a rhyme or reason behind their appearance.
14 Aether Veins. Faint, glowing veins appear on your skin when you spend a prolonged period of time in darkness. These veins aren’t
bright enough to shed any meaningful light, but maybe they just aren’t strong enough yet?
15 Uncomfortable Sleepwalker. When you slumber, your body enters a trance-like state that others might find disconcerting. Often, your
body simply stands up with eyes wide open for the duration of your slumber, stoic and still like a corpse.
16 Spectral Chains. Ghostly chains clasp your wrists or ankles. These chains are immaterial, even in the ethereal plane, and nothing has
been able to get them off you. Sometimes, when you show mercy, you swear you feel the chains tighten for a moment.
17 Wailing Voice. Your voice is hollow and low, like a dead cave, and when you speak normally, it feels more like a whisper. However,
when you shout or otherwise raise your voice, it becomes distant and shrill, like a banshee’s.
18 One Lucid Dream. Your dreams are always lucid and continue from one another. You don’t have individual dreams like other people,
but one dream that is simply broken up by your time awake.
19 Memory Intruder. There is a strange figure in your memories that you know wasn’t actually present in them. The figure doesn’t
always appear in the same memories, as if moving through them.
20 Bad Smile. Your smile is unsettling as best, and those who see it often prefer you stoic or frowning. Additionally, when you laugh,
your laugh sounds somehow wrong and causes anxious goosebumps in those who hear it.

Outrider Inheritance
Eclectic explorers, outrider armigers connect to novelty—exotic locations, new experiences, strange planes, fey spirits—driven by
insatiable curiosity. And in doing so, they develop abilities that help them travel and traverse space. These armigers live big lives, bold
lives, or quick lives.
One outrider’s armory might look like a crowded storage decorated with cultural memorabilia, and another’s might be a planar station
touched by the energies of one or many other worlds. Meanwhile, one outrider armiger may possess weapons that look impossible and
boast links that appear as tiny portals. Another outrider armiger may have their bonded weapons look like exotic relics, and their links
are portraits of meaningful memories.
Huh, the Sacred Falls are nice and all, but I’ve seen better. — Dr. Rimor Viator, unimpressed explorer
Traits for a Outrider

Outrider armigers tend to travel far and wide in their pursuit of adventure, novelty, or discovery. Because of their travels, they often
curate impressive collections of trinkets and meaningful memorbilia that reflect the armiger’s life story - memories of their journeys.
Consider adding one or more of these memorabilia when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Outrider Memorabilia
1 Silver Dragon Quill. This quill has a metal nib made from the scale of a silver dragon you met, lending it a touch of elegance and an
affinity for magical inscriptions. The ink stains aren’t random; they form a pattern that spells out the dragon’s name.
2 Umbral Necklace. The necklace is from a particularly rare and fearsome creature of shadow. It’s a reminder of an intense battle
where you risked everything to protect those around you, and it still carries a faint aura of darkness.
3 Traveler’s Map. This map is not just any map; it’s a magical map that updates in real-time. It’s covered in cryptic symbols that only
you understand, detailing your journey through various places and marking locations you’ve visited that are meaningful to you.
4 Crone’s Coin. You obtained this coin during a risky deal with a cunning hag. Although its magic has dulled with time, it serves as a
cautionary tale, reminding you of the risks of dealing with dark forces and the importance of always staying one step ahead.
5 Lock of Hair. This lock of hair is from a close friend, mentor, or loved one who passed away. It’s enchanted with a faint glimmer, and
when held, it brings forth fleeting memories of shared laughter, adventures, and emotional moments.
6 Singing Pebble. This pebble was a gift from a fey creature, and when thrown into water, it creates a small, mesmerizing water show,
accompanied by a soothing melody that calms your spirit.
7 Clockwork Mechanism. This intricate mechanism is a fragment from an ancient and forgotten construct. You found it in a long-lost
ruin, and though you don’t know what it does, you’re sure you’ll discover its secrets one day.
8 Tattered Banner. This banner is from a leader whose fatal end you witnessed. The banner’s tatters are a remnant of a cause that no
longer is what it used to be or that perhaps no longer exists at all.
9 Feyblossom. This delicate flower blooms once every decade without any sustenance, and you happened upon it during a brief journey
to a strange place. Since it has been in your possession, it seems to bloom much more often than before but you don’t know why.
10 Illusionist’s Masque. Once worn by a master illusionist, this beautiful mask fell into your hands when you visited a travelling auction.
The mask used to shift and change, but now mundane, it simply serves as a reminder that appearances can be deceiving.
11 Lost Tome. Bought from an arcane library, this tome is from an unknown civilization that you know little about. Though you cannot
read it because it’s written in a dead language, you hope to one day unlock its mysteries.
12 Shard of Elemental Crystal. This shard was obtained after a harrowing encounter with an elemental spirit. It still crackles with energy,
and sometimes, you think it even reacts to the environment around you.
13 Fossilized Claw. The fossilized claw is from a long-extinct creature, rumored to be the guardian of a hidden treasure trove. Though
you found the claw awhile ago, you have yet to make meaningful advancements in the discovery of the treasure.
14 Locket with a Secret. Given to you as a gift from someone you look up to, this locket contains a small hidden compartment which
hides a cryptic note, a piece of a mysterious map, or otherwise, some clue to a long-buried secret.
15 Harmonic Geode. Found by accident, this mundane-looking geode resonates with a specific musical note when struck, making it
helpful for tuning musical instruments. Perhaps other stones exists that resonante at different frequencies?
16 Spirit Feather. The feather is a gift from a celestial being or spirit guide, which you earned after performing a favor for them. The
feather glows every so softly and feels warm to touch, but you’ve yet to discover any practical use for it.
17 Genie’s Old Lamp. This brass lamp was once home to a genie. It’s emptiness didn’t stop the peddler who sold it to you from
demanding a high price for it. Though it’s more-or-less a mundane lamp, sometimes it ignites on its own.
18 Friendship Token. This polished stone was exchanged as a token of friendship from a fellow adventurer. Since they gave you the
token, you haven’t seen your friend, but a sudden new crack in the stone has you worried.
19 Everbeating Heart. You plucked this organ from the corpse of a defeated undead creature, and though the creature is long gone, the
heart continues to beat softly on its own. Perhaps its leftover necromantic energy? Or perhaps it’s something else?
20 Potrait of an Unknown Person. You found this small portrait in your pocket one day, and though you don’t recognize the subject, you
can’t help but feel some kind of connection to the faded character.

Osmose Armiger.
Uses a friendly name to offset their
intense appearance. Doesn’ t work
Osmose Inheritance
Capable of connecting with the physical essence of creatures and places, osmose absorb matter to transform their bodies like
shapeshifters. They can don new appearances with unique powers, osmose are most well known and most easily identified by their
trademark ability to meld their bonded weapons into themselves, utilizing a distinctly unorthodox fighting style of melded weaponry.
Osmose arsenals change according to the matter their armiger has taken in. An osmose connected with the essence of a fey may
have an enchanting grove as their armory, with whimsical weaponry and links that appear as petal-like wings around their head. But,
as soon as they draw from the plane of fire, the same osmose’s arsenal may transform - the enchanted grove now burnt and ashen, their
whimsical weapons now smoldering and hot, and their petal-like wings now fiery like a phoenix.
Ah~ Take it all in... no, I mean it literally. — Ya’ta’gha’ya’r, aspring comedian and wilderness guide
Traits for a Osmose

As osmoses take in the essence of peoples and places around them, these absorptions inevitably leave a lasting mark on the armiger.
Slowly mutated, you can often tell a lot about the kinds of essences that an osmose absorbs, simply by the leftover effects they exhibit.
Consider adding one or more of these mutations when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Osmose Mutations
1 Abberant Limb. You have an additional limb of some kind from all your times shapeshifting. This limb might be somewhat functional,
but it is obviously aberrant. When you shapechange or transform, your forms tend to also have an additional limb.
2 Spectral Echoes. Faint, ghostly images of creatures you have previously siphoned manifest around you. These echoes aren’t sentient
spirits, but rather psychic remnants that are more nuisances than anything.
3 Growth. When you siphon a creature or environment, a tumor-like growth manifests on your body that immediately disappears once
you end the siphon. Though seemingly benign, you are worried what might happens if it grows.
4 Changing Fingerprints. Your fingerprints are ever-changing and often strange or impossible. Though this could make you harder to
be tracked, the unique nature of the fingerprints often leads back to you anyways.
5 Vestigal Consciousness. A creature you previously siphoned hasn’t really left you and now a fragment of their consciousness resides
in your own, much like an inner voice.
6 Modular Voice. Your voice is strangely malleable. You might just fancy yourself a great impressionist, but your ability to mimic others
borders on being preternatural.
7 Chameleon Skin. Your skin subtly takes on the hues and colors of the environment you are standing on. Though this effect is too
subtle to be of any good use, it’s still noticeable.
8 Mismatched Skin. Your body has become a chaotic blend of various skin types and skin colors. Perhaps an elbow is covered in green
scales, and a thigh is blue and slimey. Sometimes, your transformations even adopt your strange skin instead of their proper one.
9 Kinesthetic Mime. Simply by watching others, you can replicate physical movements and details with incredible accuracy. This
doesn’t necessarily impart the skill necessary to replicate difficult movements, but you can try!
10 Familiar Fragrance. You don’t smell right. Or rather, you don’t smell as you should, and instead, you carry a faint, unique scent that
transcends your various forms and transformations.
11 Bad Eye. One of your eyes seems to be from an entirely different creature, and it sometimes even seems to move on its own whims.
Though you’ve gotten used to the sensation of an eye with a mind of its own, it’s a party trick that can disturb those who aren’t ready.
12 Elastic Body. Your body is surprisingly elastic, able to be pulled beyond normal limits without much negative effect on you. You’ve yet
to really find a use for it, but the elasticity probably plays a part in your form shifting.
13 Strange Stomach. Your stomach doesn’t really work the way that it used to, and now, you need to consume food that is different than
before in order to satiate your hunger. Perhaps you now eat metal, or dirt, or something else you used to find inedible?
14 Extra Digit. You never used to have as many fingers as you now do, but the additional digit doesn’t really seem to affect your life all
that much. Some people may think its strange, but it’s just who you are these days.
15 Odd Organs. Your organs don’t function like normal, and frankly, they might not even look like normal orgrans. Whether in different
places or different entirely, no one is quite sure how your organs function and whether they are even necessary.
16 Designer Scars. You scar easily, and your scars also change over time. Maybe you can even control how your scars present? And
perhaps you morph your scars so that they appear as tattoo-like markings or something else?
17 Hollow. Contrary to regular understanding, your body is entirely hollow and empty, although you function and act like any other
normal creature. That said, when cut or otherwise injured, your mutation is made evident when you don’t bleed.
18 Great Bodily Control. You can control some bodily mechanisms that others can’t. Perhaps you can begin or cease sweating on
command? Maybe you can sneeze at will? Regardless, your mastery over your body is peculiar, if not impressive.
19 Ever Thirsty. Transformations and siphons work your body like nothing else, and you often find yourself thirsty and needing a drink.
Whether this is a physiological or simply psychosomatic effect is unknown, but one thing is certain: you could drink a river.
20 Unconscious Coloring. Whenever you spend enough time with a creature or environment, you unconsciously begin adopting its
colorations in subtle ways - such as a slow change in eye color.

Radiant Inheritance
Some armigers are born great, some choose greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them. Whatever the reason, radiant
armigers connect to great figures—from heroic adventurers to mighty monarchs and terrible tyrants—and their glory flows in them.
Whether for good or ill, they are on the road to divinity, and now, their destiny awaits.
Marked for glorious purpose, radiants’ arsenals reflect their higher callings. Their armories tend to appear as ostentatious museums,
royal courtyards, or heavenly temples. Meanwhile, a radiant’s bonded weapons are commonly decorated with ornate filigree, dotted
with precious stones, and even take on golden sheens. And, a radiant’s links are usually majestic—such as golden orbs circling their
head like a crown.
The High Queen of old lives. She stands before you, made new in me. Now, kneel. — Lord Reyluz
Traits for a Radiant

Radiant armgiers have reason to believe they are called for a great purpose, whether to change the fate of a nation or even just rewrite
a family’s legacy. And, this often stems from the figures they connect to, with each unique role model making each radiant distinct.

Spartan Inheritance
Connecting to simplicity, dedication, or perfection, spartan armigers are masters of one. Whereas other armigers focus on expansive
collections, spartans are determined to perfect a single bonded weapon. This awakens incredible powers in both the armiger and
their bonded weapon even to the point of being able to awaken sentience in their bonded weapon. Spartans tend to follow a similar
philosophy in life as they do with their arsenal, focusing their loyalty to only a small circle of close confidants.
Spartan armories are usually simple and practical, such as a blacksmith’s forge or comfortable sitting room. Their bonded weapons
are unmistakably their’s, resembling their bonded armiger in looks (and even personality). The links of a spartan are often located on
their bonded weapon, such as magical filigrees on the hilt that disappear as they are used up.
That’s a lot of weapons you have. Compensating for something? — Uniko the Sword Saint
Traits for a Spartan

All spartan armigers tend towards rituals, habits, and other rigid traditions, but the nature of these disciplines can differ wildly from
one spartan to the next. That said, plenty of spartans are keen to share their disciplines with anyone interested in adopting them.
Consider adding one or more of these disciplines when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Spartan Disciplines
1 Morning Meditation. You start each day with a peaceful meditation, focusing your mind and preparing yourself mentally for the
challenges ahead.
2 Weapon Maintenance Ritual. You meticulously clean, sharpen, and care for your weapons and armor, ensuring they’re always in
prime condition.
3 Regular Watch. You habitually scan the environment for potential hazards, advantageous positions, and escape routes, allowing you
to adapt quickly to changing situations and maximize your tactical advantage.
4 Daily Conditioning. You dedicate time each day to physical conditioning and training, maintaining peak physical fitness, which you
hope also translates to increased combat prowess.
5 Win-a-Day. You regularly engage in some kind of friendly competition or agreement to keep your abilities in their prime. Whether you
challenge your allies to who can fell the most skeletons or who can hold their breath the longest, you have to experience a win.
6 Tactical Study. At almost the same time each day, you sit down to study the fighting styles and tactics of various foes you’ve
encountered to anticipate your opponents’ moves and exploit weaknesses during combat.
7 Dedicated Training Dummy. You have a dedicated training dummy that you carry around with you to practice combat with. The
training dummy is a nigh-constant companion, seemingly doubling as a security blanket.
8 Post-Combat Recovery. You prioritize recovery after each battle, taking measured time to clean up, cooldown, stretch, and recuperate
as efficiently as possible, even when it’s inconvenient.
9 Until Failure. You do not rest your head to sleep until you absolutely need to, when your muscles can no longer push on, and your
body can no longer move forward. Until then, you continue to work your body and your craft.
10 Day of Rest. You keep a tradition of taking one day off a week, even when out adventuring. You take this day to rest, reflect, and
spend time with loved ones. When you are unable to observe this day, you feel “off” until you can enjoy it.
11 Breath Work. You keep a strict regime of breathing exercises that you observe at various times. These breathing exercises start
simple, but some of them are so specific and complex that others have difficulty understanding what you do (or why you do it).
12 Warmup Routine. You have an extensive and specific warmup routine that you engage in every day and in advance of any strenuous
activity. You are worried about hurting your body if you engage in activity without a proper warmup.
13 Ever Studying. You mainting a strict learning regime, usually in the form of reading whatever books, tomes, or documents you
happen to have on hand. Because of this, you find it hard to resist the call of a library or bookstore.
14 Forever Student. You take whatever classes, trainings, or workshops that you can when the opportunity is presented. Sometimes
they are way more expensive than they’re worth, but you can’t help yourself.
15 Lecturer. You understand that the best way to prove mastery of a concept is if you are able to teach it effectively. As such, you
conducts formal lessons on a regular basis to those who are willing to engage with you.
16 Coach. You see yourself as a sort of coach in the lives of those you adventure with. Whether your party likes it or not, you are quick to
point out their areas of improvements and their shortcomings. You also enjoy leading inspiring rallies prior to missions or battles.
17 High Bar of Excellence. You forget that not everyone is as disciplined as you are, and so you find no issue with barking orders and
demanding high levels of success and execution. Some may even go so far as to call you a drill sergeant.
18 Marcher. You don’t walk or saunter. You maintain a formal march at most times, moving your body with practiced and precise
motions. This can be handy in the right situations, but you tend to march even when it’s unnecessary.
19 Always Fasting. You are always observing some kind of fast. This could be the same fast, such as only eating after sunset, or it could
be more varied, such as refusing to partake in entertainment for one day and then fasting animal meats the next.
20 Clockwork Circadian Rhythms. You naturally sleep at the same time and wake up at the same time. You may even tend to get tired,
hungry, and thirsty at the same times every day. Perhaps your subconscious and even unconscious are just as disciplined as you?

Arsenal of One
When you gain this subclass, you commit to bond with one

armiger abilities are modified as follows:
One Bond. You can only have one bonded weapon at a time.
Flexible Attunement. When you gain additional attunement
slots at 13th and 20th level, you can use these attunement slots
for any magic item instead of just for weapons.
Returning Weapon. When you use your bonded weapon
in a Grand Strike, the weapon automatically returns to you
at the end of the Grand Strike. This does not allow you to
make multiple Grand Strike attacks with the one weapon,
but instead, the Returning Strike improvement allows the
weapon to return immediately after each Grand Strike attack
roll, letting you use the one weapon for multiple Grand Strike
attacks.
Modified Grand Flurry. Since you can only use your one
bonded weapon multiple times in a Grand Strike when you
have the Returning Strike improvement, the Grand Flurry link
feature is more flexible, as described below. This replaces the
original Grand Flurry link feature.
Modified Grand Flurry (1 Link)
When you take the Attack action, you can expend 1 link (no

Symmetric Inheritance
Push. Pull. Good. Evil. Life. Death. Symmetric armigers are especially attuned to the interconnectedness of all things and can take
advantage of these connections to great effect. Symmetrics are often sage. They know every action has an equal and opposite reaction,
and this inspires them to manipulate harmonious cycles for their own purposes.
Symmetric arsenals often reflect a particular cycle or duality. For example, one focused on the metaphysics of good and evil may
have an armory that mixes both abyssal and celestial aesthetics, with black-and-white bonded weapons, and links that appear as
feathered and leather wings. Another may connect with equivalent exchanges—their armory appearing as an alchemical lab or place
of transaction, their bonded weapons may boast alchemical symbols, and their links may appear as a collection of 2-sided coins.
Enemies are a gift, for they give us something to stand against. Honor them with your resistance. — anonymous
Traits for a Symmetric

Symmetric armigers come from all schools of thought and walks of life, despite the common patterns in their ability. As symmetrics
tend to be most naturally sagacious of the armigers, they often develop unique philosophies or proverbs that guide them.
Consider adding one or more of these philosophies or proverbs when creating a symmetric armiger or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Symmetric Guiding Philosophies or Proverbs
1 “Embrace the Gale Within”. This philosophy encourages you to acknowledge and harness your inner strength and passions, using
them to drive you forward like a powerful wind guiding your path.
2 “The Waters War with Dry Land and Give Us Life”. This proverb reminds you that adversity is a natural part of existence and that
conflict is a necessary part of change and transformation.
3 “Harmony Is a Motion”. This philosophy teaches that balance and coordination are essential in all aspects of life, just as in combat
where your movements and decisions should flow harmoniously.
4 “The Blade Shaped by the Spirit Shapes the Spirit”. This proverb suggests that the way you wield your weapon is a reflection of your
inner character, implying that your actions define who you are as a person.
5 “Every Hurricane has a Still Eye”. This proverb emphasizes the importance of maintaining calm and clarity even in the midst of chaos,
both in battle and in life, as it allows you to make more calculated decisions.
6 “Every Wildfire Starts as a Flame”. This proverb is a caution that small problems or dangers can grow into larger tribulations if they
aren’t dealt with quickly, and it encourages you to be quick to put out fires before they can overwhelm you.
7 “Even Small Whispers Have an Echo”. This philosophy teaches that every action you take, no matter how small, ripples through the
world, influencing outcomes and shaping your destiny.
8 “The Shadows Know What the Light Hides”. This proverb suggests that embracing subtlety and using the shadows to your advantage
can lead to a more profound understanding of situations and better outcomes.
9 “The Forge Tempers with Heat”. This philosophy compares challenges to a forge, where you are tempered and refined by trials,
emerging stronger and sharper than before. It encourages you to seek hardships that they may strengthen you.
10 “Every River Knows the Way to the Ocean Is Not a Straight Path”. This proverb reminds you to adapt and change like a river, flowing
around obstacles and always finding a way forward, no matter how challenging the path may be.
11 “Silence Strikes like Thunder and Clears the Mind”. This philosophy teaches the significance of observing silence, especially in
conversations, interrogations, or noisy situations, as silent pauses allow potential for insight and can reveal hidden truths.
12 “Life is a Dance with Fate but Who Leads It?”. This proverb suggests that your choices are the steps you take in life’s dance, shaping
the rhythm of your existence. Do you let fate take the lead or do you move to your own rhythm?
13 “Every Phoenix’s Rebirth Begins With Its Death”. This philosophy speaks of resilience and transformation, reminding you that even
from the ashes of failure, you can rise anew with renewed strength.
14 “The Darker the Night, the Brighter the Stars”. This proverb offers hope in challenging times, suggesting that even in the darkest
moments, there are sources of guidance and inspiration to be found.
15 “One Thread Cannot Make a Tapestry”. This philosophy views life as a tapestry, with every individual’s journey interwoven with
others’, creating a complex and beautiful pattern.
16 “What Is New to Us Is Old to Our Ancestors”. This proverb encourages you to listen to the wisdom of those who came before you, as
their experiences can guide your decisions and actions.
17 “Equilibrium is a Balancing Act”. This philosophy promotes that finding equilibrium and maintaining harmony is an active and
dynamic effort, advocating for calculated choices and staying mindful of potential consequences.
18 “Wisdom Can Be Found in the Foolish”. This proverbs reminds you to not be quick to dismiss any person or thought, as truths and
insights can be hidden in even the most silly banality.
19 “Power Is Not Limited by the Body”. This philosophy teaches that physical strength is just one factor in overall power and that one
should be strong in other ways.
20 “Tomorrow Is a Blank Scroll Written by Today”. This proverb speaks of the unknown future as a blank scroll waiting to be written,
urging you to seize the present and shape your destiny with purpose and intention.

way. Extraordinary empaths, temperaments connect to their own hearts and to the feelings of those around them, and by harnessing
emotional energy, temperaments can achieve a variety of effects. However, as their namesake implies, temperaments can be prone to
dramatic mood swings and can even be overcome by their incredibly strong emotions.
Temperaments’ arsenals are often influenced by a particular feeling. A temperament in love may have pink bonded weapons, a lavish
bedroom for an armory, and links that appear as floating hearts. Meanwhile, an irritable temperament’s bonded weapons may shake
with rage, their armory may appear vandalized and damaged, and their links may appear as a motes of fire that grow around anger.
If I am an example, I am example of the power of our hearts. — Rei Omoi, on the day of her trial
Traits for a Temperament

Due to the psionic nature of temperament armigers, these armigers tend to manifest subtle psychic effects that betray the nature of
their abilities. It is thought that these psionic traits are reflections of a temperament’s subconscious or unconscious mind.
Consider adding one or more of these psionic effects when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Temperament Psychic Effects
1 Telepathic Echoes. You occasionally catch fleeting thoughts from individuals you touch, as if their minds brush against yours, giving
you snippets of their emotions. These snippets are disorderly and hazy, so you can’t make much (if anything) out of them.
2 Emotional Radiance. Sometimes, your emotions subtly influence the emotions of those around you, causing slight shifts in their
moods without your conscious intention.
3 Colorizing Aura. The colors of your immediate surroundings occasionally shift based on your emotions, causing the hues of objects
or light to change subtly - such as red roses slowly turning blue when you are sad.
4 Psionic Hunches. You sometimes get a psychic twinge, an indescribable hunch that you can’t shake off. You’ve yet to successfully
make use of these vague sense, and you aren’t always convinced that it actually means anything.
5 Ephemeral Memories. Images and scenes from your memories occasionally manifest as faint, translucent illusions in your vicinity,
which are visible only to you. These memories are clear and vivid and might even interefere with your visual perception.
6 Telepathic Reverberation. The thoughts of those around you sometimes create a soft, rhythmic hum in your mind, like a distant
conversation in a crowded room. The hum is incoherent and doesn’t give you any insight into people’s specific thoughts.
7 Empathic Mirror. Your emotions become more vivid when you’re around people, and when you spend enough time with someone,
you are prone to adopt their perceived emotions as your own.
8 Mood Lamp Touch. Small objects you touch briefly emit a faint, ephemeral glow that matches your emotional state at the time.This
glow is short-lived and dull, and it isn’t useful as a way to create a light source.
9 Mood-Induced Sensations. The texture and temperature of objects you touch occasionally seem to change based on your current
emotional state, such as water feeling hotter when you are angry. Whether these changes are purely perceived or real is unknown.
10 Nascent Clairvoyance. You sometimes receive fleeting mental flashes of other locations you have never been to before, though these
pictures are often cryptic and open to interpretation.
11 Subconscious Manipulation. Objects around you sometimes respond slightly to your unconscious desires, moving or shifting in
minor ways that few notice.
12 Object Reading. When you touch an object, you get a mental flash of the previous creature that touched the object. These flashes are
brief and muddy, but you might be able to glean the emotional state of the previous creature via the leftover psychic imprint.
13 Sensory Overlap. Intense emotions you experience can lead to synesthetic experiences, where you briefly taste colors or see sounds.
Often, it seems the emotional outburst affects the type of synesthesia you develop - such as fear making sounds purple and white.
14 Distinct Emotional Identities. Strong emotions change you - sometimes literally. When you experience a strong emotion, your
appearance or identity may cosmetically change to match the emotion, such as growing a few inches when you feel proud.
15 Dreamsharing. When you dream while people around you are also dreaming, you sometimes take in pieces of their dreams into your
own. Sometimes, you swear you even get to observe the dreams of other people, though you’ve never been able to prove it.
16 Empathic Synesthesia. The expressed emotions of others are sensate to you in extraordinary ways. For example, strong emotions
may evoke a smell, or perhaps everyone emits a faint emotional aura. However they appear, the effects aren’t actually that useful.
17 Invisible Bonds. After spending enough time with someone, you can see literal psychic threads develop that connect you and the
creature you have spent time with. These transluscent shimmers are immaterial and ephemeral, and only appear in close proximity.
18 Inner Sight. When you look at people, you don’t just see their physical appearance, but you see a manifestation of their psychic
appearance, too. These mental appearances can be symbolic, weird, or abstract, but everyone’s thoughtform is different.
19 Manifest Dreams. When you sleep, your dreams sometimes spill out of your head and appear as hazy illusions around you that other
people might be able to perceive.
20 Animist. You are convinced that there is a soul or spirit in everything - creatures, plants, inanimate objects - and you treat all things
accordingly. For example, you might treat all items with careful respect as a way of showing them gratitude.

VAELRON THE CALM
Code name: Shieldmaiden.
Vanguard armiger.
Don’t point out her blue skin.
Vanguard Inheritance
Often on the frontlines, vanguards connect to warfare, fervor, strength, tactics, or even their allies. They are often more calculating
than their peers and excel in matters concerning teamwork, battle strategies, and combat techniques. Still, what makes vanguards so
impressive is their ability to empower their allies. Even a volunteer militia becomes a well-oiled force when a vanguard takes charge.
The bonded weapons of vanguards almost always look masterwork, reflecting light with such clarity they can be seen at great
distances. Meanwhile, their armories reflect places of combat or training, such as gladiatorial arenas or military barracks. The links
of vanguard armigers take inspiration from battle and war. One might have streaks of blood circling their armor, another might have
magical rondels running up their arm, and a final one may have shifting warpaint.
If you stay beside me, you will never know death. — Steelwarden Qaletaqa
Traits for a Vanguard

Vanguards’ propensity to confront their obstacles head on means they often see a number of victories and defeats. However, every
vanguard armiger is uniquely impacted by the particular triumphs they experience or desire—whether grand or personal.
Consider adding one or more of these triumphs when creating an armiger of this inheritance or as you advance in its ranks.
d20 Vanguard Desired or Realized Triumphs

proved invaluable to the local mages.
3 Great Mediation. Through diplomacy and tact, you successfully negotiated a peace treaty between warring factions, putting an end to

4 Blacksmith’s Assistant. You bested a powerful fire elemental in combat to help a weaponsmith harvest its essence and forge a
weapon imbued with the elemental’s fiery power.
5 Overcome Phobia. You overcame your fear of heights and ascended a treacherous mountain peak. In celebration, you planted a flag
on the mountaintop, symbolizing your triumph over personal limitations.
6 Raid Defender. You defended a vulnerable village from a marauding horde, inspiring the villagers to stand beside you as you led them
to victory against overwhelming odds.
7 Spirit Journey. As a traditional rite-of-passage, you successfully completed a ritual that allowed you to to gain insights and visions
that shaped your path.
8 Posthumous Promise. You fulfilled a sacred oath you made to a dying friend, avenging their death and ensuring their memory would
be honored for generations to come.

people to reclaim their freedom.

light to repel an undead force that threatened to take over.
11 Fighting Champion. You emerged victorious in a prestigious gladiatorial tournament, proving your combat prowess to an adoring

proving that your spirit could not be broken.
13 Big Game Hunter. You hunted down and subdued a malevolent creature that stalked a nearby town, ending its long-lived terror and

impression on all who heard your music.
16 Trailblazing Pioneer. You charted an uncharted territory, mapping new places and discovering points-of-interest, leaving a legacy that
enriched the world’s knowledge.
17 Fabled Bond. You befriended a legendary creature, gaining a helpful contact whose presence brings awe and admiration from those
who happen to witness your connection.
18 Steel Over Spell. You faced down a powerful spellcaster, dispersing their magic and overcoming them without the help of
spellcasting, proving that might doesn’t always need to rely on magic.
19 Diplomatic Achievement. You orchestrated a successful alliance between diverse cultures and races, fostering harmony and
cooperation in the face of a common threat.
20 Living Muse. You became the muse of an artist, who created great works inspired by you that spread throughout the area, offering a
chance to live on in the hearts of generations to come, whether they recognized the works were based on you or not.

and damage calculations, and you can use bonded shields as a
bonded weapon for other armiger features.
