Advices on creating Feats :
+
Abbots are leaders of a monastery.
  
A Feat is a massive advantage granted to the finest of the finest after a life of training. Most normal people don't have Feats at all.
+
A [[Ecclesiastic (bishop)]] gains both the Feat [[Reputation]] and [[Rich]].
A person with the Agile Feat, is qualified to be in the Olympics (not win, but at least participate)
 
A person with the Rich Feat is the richest man in his city.
 
Etc..
 
  
While creating a Feat, make sure with your Game Master that there is no other Feat that would be Synonym (e.g. would have the same final game effect). If yes, add it as a Synonym rather than create a new Feat.
+
A [[Ecclesiastic (priest)]] gains the Feat [[Charismatic]].
  
For example, Courage is a synonym of Fanatism, not because they are the same concept, but because they have a similar in game effect.
+
A [[Ecclesiastic (canon)]] gains the Feat [[Rich]].
  
And finally, make sure that the Feat is useful but not too useful, this depends on the scenarios and campaign you're playing.
+
A [[Ecclesiastic (abbot)]] gains [[Rich]] or a Feat of his choice in the list of Feats granted by the [[Monk]] archetype.
  
Advices on creating Archetypes :
+
A [[Ecclesiastic (other)]] gains the Feat [[Rich]].
  
A typical archetype is either :
 
One Feat imposed and two to be chosen in a list
 
or
 
A disadvantage that grants two feats freely chosen.
 
  
The goal of an Archetype is to guide a new player on how to create a very cool and coherent character.
+
If his background justifies it, he also gains the [[⭐ Faith]] Feat (regardless of his rank).
  
 +
Additionally (except if he is an [[Ecclesiastic (bishop)]]) he gains one Feat of his choice in this list :
 +
*[[Knowledge]]
 +
*[[Fanatic]]
 +
*[[Sleepless]]
 +
*[[Knowledge (apothecary)]]
 +
*[[Knowledge (medicine)]]
 +
*[[Knowledge (cryptography)]]
 +
*[[Noble]]
 +
*[[Photographic Memory]]
 +
*[[Reputation]]
 +
*[[Well Connected]]
 +
*[[Miracle]] (even if the character isn't third level)
 +
*[[Revelation]] (even if the character isn't third level)
 +
*[[Talented]]
 +
*[[Foreigner]]
 +
*[[Venerable Age]]
  
Advices on creating Prowesses :
+
If the character chooses the Feat [[Venerable Age]], he only gains one additional Feat of his choice outside this list or two Feats of his choice inside this list.
 +
This is an exception to the rule, normally a character is not able to have two archetypes.
  
A Prowess can only be used once per scenario and allows the character to do a special action.
 
  
A Prowess is a type of non-visual spell. It is possible only if there is an explanation to the limit of the scientifically plausible and it is up to the player to justify it with the game master before using his prowess.
 
  
For example, it is humanly impossible to heal someone who has been decapitated, but it is not impossible to treat someone who's throat have been slit. It is very difficult, very rare, but scientifically plausible.
+
Note that not all monks have this feat and the character may de facto be a monk from any of those orders without having it.
  
Unlike normal Feats, a character can acquire the same Prowess several times.

Synonyms: Bishop, Deacon, Priest, Cleric, Abbot, Canon


Special: Archetype

Ecclesiastic is an Archetype, it is a special kind of Feat. A character can only have one Archetype in total. Apart from that, Archetypes are like normal Feats and may be taken at character creation or on any level up. On your sheet, mark Ecclesiastic as one of your Feats and add all Feats gained separately.
