Evonpire 1840 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Paladin Addition ~ Lion’s Roar (Raymond Swanland) Main Lore The Following would be added under the redines of “The Unspoken Weakness” Spoiler A Paladin would find themselves unable to cast Lion’s Roar while in a Voidial Hollow, or the proximity of a Voidal Tear as they’re lacking their own aura and courage, and thus would not be able to share it with others. The Following Spell will be added under “Mist Weaving” Spoiler Lion’s Roar Created by the Apostle Azrael “the Breaker” in the ages of yore, this technique instilled his courage upon the Grey, ensuring that they would fight to their end, and surely they did. Lion's Roar is the inner aura of a Paladin being stretched to the size of [15] Meters, and any within this border would soon feel the Lion’s embrace upon them over the course of [2] Emotes, touching them with the Mists and instilling the Paladin’s allies with courage at the cost of [2] Embers. Accompanying the expanding of the Borders would be a loud Xannic-Infused shout, or sort of visible sign. After [5] Emote Rounds, the Aura would begin to fade away. Lion’s Challenge Like Xannic Fervour, Lion’s Roar gains an augmentation upon a Paladin being twice-ordained a Vindicator of Order. In addition to the latent courage effects of Lion’s Roar, they gain the ability to make their presence known to their enemy on the battlefield, drawing them to begin focusing on the Vindicator, essentially challenging them. This ability would be only usable on Darkspawn, having no effect on Descendant-kind due to their untainted souls. Lion’s Heart Those who take up the mantle of Wrymstalker are able to calm the nerves of their allies. Granting them courage, and providing calmness in battle, allowing their aim to be uninhabited by external pressures, whether this be because of stress, environmental, or fear wracking upon the Paladin and their allies. Though, unfortunately, there is no respite for physical ailments affecting their allies. Lion’s Roar is a tier 3 spell for all Paladins which gains an additional effect upon a sub-type being chosen. Lion’s Roar requires [2] emotes to cast, and costs [2] Embers. Lion’s Roar and all of its Augments effects expire after [5] Emote Rounds. The Wave of Mists does not inflict any sort of pain upon Darkspawn, though, it would inflict feelings of scorn and bitter cold that typically accompanies Xannic Mists encountering Darkspawn. Lion’s Roar only affects beings in the [15] meter range. Any Fear-Inducing Spells or Curses are temporarily broken by Lion’s Roar due to the abundance of Xannic Mists, after it expires, they would immediately resume. "Allies” is defined as anyone who is not actively fighting against the Paladin and their allies, or isn’t a known Darkspawn. Any former Corcitura who have been purged by Xannic means would find themselves filled with fear, as per their lore. Negating any beneficial effects of Lion’s Heart and the base-level Lion’s Roar. This cannot be used to metagame the identity of any Darkspawn. A Tell, ex. A literal roar, or a shout, must accompany Lion’s Roar when cast. Lion’s Challenge has no effect on mundane Descendants, solely Darkspawn, ex. Zar’Akal, or a Nephilim. Lion’s Challenge does not force the Darkspawn to immediately begin attacking the Vindicator, OOCly, it is up to the affected target's player whether the taunt will be ignored or not. Alternatively, if both parties are willing a roll could be used to determine success. Lion’s Challenge cannot be used outside of combat. Lion’s Heart simply calms the nerves of the Paladin and their allies, and does not guarantee their blow/shot will hit. The following would be added under “Orisons” Spoiler Lion’s Roar - Unchanged Mechanics from Lion’s Roar without Augmentation. Retains effect for 5 emote rounds before lightstone is used up. Purpose/Credits Evonpire - For being me Valannor - Consultation Nivndil - Grammar Paladin Community - Consultation Lion’s Roar has been a Paladin spell that has been a part of our kit for years, having been a part of the Magic in various editions of the lore, save for the most recent write. So, I felt it would be proper for its return to us, in-addition to some flavor quirks to make it more thematically appropriate for Modern Paladinism. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evonpire 1840 Author Share Posted November 12, 2021 12 hours ago, Ryloth said: this would therefore affect a dratho-zha enchantment despite not directly purging the rune nor destroying the enchanted object correct? I'm not too familiar with Draans and Vehement Smithing or anything beyond basic azdrazi knowledge. But, its intended use would be temporary relief for five emotes, before immediately returning. So yes, temporarily which I think is fair enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
