Strifering

Your natural armor soaks 2 points from any single source of damage. If the damage dealt from a single source would be reduced to 0, you take no damage (any subsequent source that would be reduced to 0 deals 1 instead, and then 0 on the next subsequent source, alternating in this way with each subsequent source). Whenever you rest to recover HP or wounds, you require supply equal to 1 gp per HP or wound to repair yourself.

You have the power to ward off evils opposed to your faith, be they undead hordes or the powers of other unholy creatures. For each such opponent, you may spend 1 MP to force them to make an opposed spell check using Deft in order to attack or cast spells against you. You cannot cast concentration spells or attack while warding off evil in this way. Moreover, you may make an opposed spell check using Deft to expend MP and dispel the magic of such opponents (per the spell Dispel Magic). To absorb an opponent’s magic, you must spend MP equal to the MP your opponent spent to cast the spell.

You are a rebel with a cause, training against the grain to overcome the limitations of your origins. When making attribute checks that involve mundane physical skill, you may negate any disadvantage conferred by your origin. The GM gets the final say as to whether the check qualifies. You start with 1 extra weapon skill.
