[ +- ] Barbarian: Path of the Dragonheart
Tales whispered around campfires speak of fearsome warriors who fight with the strength of dragons burning in their veins. There are few who walk the Path of the Dragonheart, for it is one of unparalleled resilience on the battlefield. A dragonheart's rage is fueled by a unique bond forged with a dragon, endowing it with increased stamina and fortitude.
Becoming a dragonheart might happen in different ways. Some sources say that these men and women gain their abilities by slaying a dragon and eating its heart. Others claim that a dragon can share its strength with a worthy soul through a deep, spiritual bond. Still, more argue that the heart of a dragon literally beats in the chest of the warrior who follows this path. Though the exact nature of these barbarians is surrounded by mystery, they are undeniably destined for greatness.

[ +- ] Paladin: Oath of Heroism
The Oath of Heroism is taken by paladins who strive for the greatest accomplishments in legend and deed. Their passion for renown and glory drives them on great journeys and epic quests. While many find an early grave, the few who surmount every adversity are praised far and wide.
Often known as heroes, valiants, or paragons—madcaps, by their critics—paladins who swear this oath yearn for more than just rooting out and destroying evil; they seek to do so in the most inspiring and glorious way possible. Their armor and weapons are bright and polished, often accompanied by a flowing cape―the more ostentatious, the better.

Using traps formed by unique primal magic, Bounty Hunters are experts at disorienting, disabling, and capturing their targets, wherever and whatever they may be.

[ +- ] Rogue: Ruffian
You thrive in rough and tumble brawls, rubbing shoulders with thugs, bouncers, and bodyguards―anyone willing to crack a few skulls to get ahead. Where most see a statue, brick, or cooking pan, you see the perfect weapon to bash down anyone foolish enough to get in your way.

[ +- ] Sorcerer: Rakshasa Bloodline
Your innate magic comes from the meddling of a devious rakshasa, a manipulative and tiger-like fiend that uses illusions and enchantments. One of the devilish creatures might have claimed you as a prize after scheming against your family, then imbued you with power for its own nefarious ends; maybe somewhere in your ancestry, a rakshasa took on the guise of a family member long enough to taint your line; or perhaps one of your ancestors slew a rakshasa and was cursed to bear children that resemble the infernal monster. However it came to be, the rakshasa's powers of misdirection and manipulation course through your veins.

[ +- ] Sorcerer: Slaad Symbiote
A slaad egg has been planted inside your body, whether by misfortune or on purpose. Instead of hatching as tadpole to devour your body, however, the egg of the toad-like creatures has stabilized within you. The chaotic elemental energy of the slaad egg grants you sorcerous abilities and supernatural health. Eventually, however, it may use you as a means to reproduce its shapeshifting kind via the destructive chaos phage.

[ +- ] Wizard: School of Transfusion
While most arcane tradition focus on techniques that build upon a single school of magic, the School of Transfusion combines transmutation and evocation, using one to enhance the other. When you infuse armor to return attacks, weapons to wield the elements, or yourself to take on an elemental form, the derivative schools of magic take on a whole new meaning.
