From publisher blurb:
Check out the Shaman - a 5E compatible class!
The breath that escapes the lips of the dwarf fogs briefly in the cold air before disappearing. Calloused, strong fingers run through the cold dirt as the sound around him dulls. Like his ancestors before him, he focuses. Suddenly, the dwarf slams an ancestral totem depicting his clan’s insignia deep into the soil; his eyes gleam a striking blue on impact. A roar rips through his throat as the form of a bear shreds outward, replacing his dwarven physique. In a matter of seconds, the shaggy-haired dwarf fades, and a ferocious grizzly bear with the same strikingly blue eyes rumbles forward.
Shaman are one with the mysterious energy that exists throughout Erenel. The power they possess could manifest in the form of spirits, both humanoid and animal-like, or something entirely sinister if the Shaman were to be convinced to tread a darker path. Either way, they act as guardians of the unseen, listeners of the past and future.
Creating a Shaman
When you create your Shaman character, consider your Shaman’s relationship to the spirit world. Does your Shaman use their ability to bolster and defend a clan, letting the ancestors guide them. Do they serve as a medium, allowing the living to communicate with the dead and serve as a tribal healer? Maybe they listen to the elements, gaining extraordinary powers from the might of the Elemental Lords?
Included Subclasses
Blood Rite
Blood Rite Shamans spend the life essence found in their veins to empower themselves. This ancient magic is known as Hematurgy and is often seen as macabre in nature. Regardless, none can deny the power found underneath their scars.
Dragon Speaker
A shaman who reveres the might of dragons hopes to form a connection with dragonkind. The shaman believes ascension is possible if one can avoid a dragon's destructive tendencies while elevating the primal power that inspires awe from many.
Primal Disciple
The Primal Deities of Erenel are ancient world protectors from before the Great Sacrifice. As a disciple of the Primals, you are charged with maintaining the balance of the natural order and helping guide others into their service.
Spirit Guardian
Many shamans revere the spirit guardian as the perfect example of a protector spirit. Protectors of the weak, your clan and your adventuring companions, spirit warriors stand alongside others bolstered by the spirit world.
Storm Keeper
A connection to the elemental planes comes naturally to most shamans. Storm Keepers see themselves as an exhalation of the union between the Planes of Air and Water onto the world. They are the eyes of the great storm, seeing themselves as protectors to shape the natural world.
