Anointed in Tales of the Valiant
Tales of the Valiant Players Guide (pg. 112)
Anointed
Anointed heritage characters have accepted a supernatural connection to extraplanar creatures or cosmic forces.
Selected by fate, favored by divinity, or made to bear an ancestral burden, you have wholly embraced a mystic purpose beyond your understanding. Your birth may have been marked by omens or you may have experienced a calling later in life.
Characters who bear this heritage come from all manner of backgrounds and lineages. Many forsake blood relatives and birthplaces to seek others who share their great purpose.
Anointed communities are few and often scattered, but those within them are loyal to one another, bound by common goals and calling. Opposing anointed factions may clash violently, especially if their goals or otherworldly bonds conflict. As such, anointed individuals often foster relationships and join culture with sympathetic clergy or cults from a young age. An anointed character might even serve as an emissary or herald to their guiding power, undergoing sacred rites or performing acts of devotion to understand their destined path.
