Sentinel | Achaea

Woodlore

Sentinels are known to travel with a number of animal companions who will assist them in battle, ranging from the harrying raven, to the small but vicious fox, to the noble wolf, and more. Their knowledge of the outdoors enables them to lay cunning traps for their enemies; some are merely a hindrance while others are lethal. A Sentinel's skill with a handaxe is unsurpassed, and many Sentinels wield spears or tridents as well.

Metamorphosis

In servitude to Nature, Metamorphosis is the ability to bond with the spirits of various animals. These range from the mundane squirrel to the fantastic icewyrm. Each morph has its own powers and strengths that enable a variety of tactics and utility skills.
