Characters & NPCs for Aicyng Adventures

Forged in the crucible of close combat, Fighters stand at the front line where steel meets bone. Masters of hand-to-hand combat, they strike with relentless force while weathering blows that would break lesser warriors. Their bodies become armor, their instincts a shield.

• Heavy armor specialists
• High survivability and front-line control
• Excels at soaking damage and protecting allies

Whether holding the line against a charging beast or carving a path through a crowded dungeon corridor, Fighters embody raw martial skill. Their superior strength and defensive prowess make them the unshakable core of any adventuring party.

Where others falter, Clerics stand firm. Their prayers can restore vitality, shield the party from dark magic, or unleash sanctified wrath upon the undead. Though not as heavily armored as a Fighter nor as magically destructive as a Wizard, a Cleric is the heart of a resilient party—its guardian spirit and unwavering healer.

• Powerful healing and restorative magic
• Divine spells to repel or destroy undead
• Balanced mix of combat and support

Using the power of shrines to gain divine gifts, the cleric provides a key component for your party.

Great power demands focus. Wizards rely on their keen minds and vast knowledge of ancient magic, channeling energy through incantations few dare even to whisper. In the hands of a skilled player, a Wizard becomes the party’s most devastating force.

• Masters of destructive and utility magic
• High intelligence unlocks powerful spells
• Ideal for players who enjoy strategy, planning, and magical supremacy

Wizards purchase and learn their arcane craft from other wizards. Like a Cleric, the secondary skill can be modified to give a lot of variance to the Wizard. For example a secondary skill of Melee Combat could be used for a Battle Wizard sub-class.

When rations run low or poison stalks the swamps, it is the Ranger’s knowledge of herbs and terrain that keeps the party alive. From high cliffs to deep groves, the Ranger is both scout and sentinel—ever watchful, ever ready.

• Exceptional ranged attackers
• Expert foragers and wilderness survivalists
• Ideal for exploration-heavy adventures

In the wilds the ranger can make the difference between starvation or continuing the journey.

A Paladin’s prayers strengthen companions, smite foes, and ward against the darkness that gathers in forgotten halls. When they raise their weapon, it is not only their own strength that answers—but the echo of divine will itself.

• Can heal and empower their party
• Strong melee presence with holy magic
• Ideal for players who want both martial and mystical abilities

Like to a cleric divine magic is granted by visiting shrines. While the cleric defends, the paladin charges the front lines much like a fighter.

Their finesse in combat makes them elusive foes—darting in for precise strikes before an enemy can even turn. When obstacles arise, the Thiefs lockpicks, powder, and ingenuity keep the adventure moving forward.

• Masters of locks and getting past obstacles
• High agility and precision in combat
• Perfect for players who enjoy problem-solving and tactical finesse

Thiefs are the masters of lock picking and using powder to get past obstacles, both skills are highly valued when in depths of a dungeon.
