### The Sun in Rags
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A deity that resides within the Pathways of the Raven King. Its rights are the
|
||
|
|
ones the alternate Kaldur / Arconis uses to hide from other outer gods and to
|
||
|
|
make the pathways safer. The Sun in Rags glories in the decay of the physical
|
||
|
|
and the enlightenment of the mind. It either is, lives in, or is just strongly
|
||
|
|
associated with the sun that shines between worlds.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At Tier 3 you'd get:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Sojourner Magic: -6 saves vs conjuration, +3 saves vs illusion, +3 saves vs
|
||
|
|
necromancy
|
||
|
|
- Sun's Casting: Necromancy spells are cast 1 level higher, spells with the
|
||
|
|
\[Light\] descriptor are cast 2 levels higher. Undead you create that would
|
||
|
|
normally be vulnerable to light are not. These bonuses double if you are
|
||
|
|
standing in area of bright light.
|
||
|
|
- Flesh is Rags (Su): Anytime you take 10 or more physical damage from a single
|
||
|
|
attack, you may, as an immediate action raise the light level around you by 1
|
||
|
|
step. The radius of this effect is 40 ft. If you take 20 more physical damage
|
||
|
|
while standing on solid ground, you may do the same targeting your blood and
|
||
|
|
flesh that falls to your feet.
|
||
|
|
- Light is Being (Su): As a swift action, you may take one point of Con damage
|
||
|
|
and teleport to any space in your line of sight that is lit by bright light.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Forming a connection with the Sun in Rags requires that you have seen the sun
|
||
|
|
between worlds with your own eyes and the completion of a ritual that requires a
|
||
|
|
mirror portal to the Paths and the corpse of a creature that had an Int score of
|
||
|
|
12 or higher. The ritual takes 3 hrs to complete and a Knowledge (Arcana) test
|
||
|
|
DC 15 and a Knowledge (Planes) test DC 20.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### The Chiliarch
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A deity that lives on The Manse demi-plane (another interstitial plane, but one
|
||
|
|
you are mostly unfamiliar with). The Chiliarch typically appears as a humanoid
|
||
|
|
covered with wounds, with bleeding eye sockets and an empty mouth. He is blind
|
||
|
|
and mute, but sees and communicates in other ways. The Chiliarch understands
|
||
|
|
suffering, but endures.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you embrace his teachings, at Tier 3 you would get:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Sojurner Magic: -6 saves vs Conjuration, +3 saves vs evocation, +3 saves vs
|
||
|
|
enchantment
|
||
|
|
- Fading eyes: Your natural sight range ends at 30 ft and you receive -4 to
|
||
|
|
sight based Perception tests. You are immune to sight based attacks that
|
||
|
|
originate from over 30 ft away. You gain tremorsense with a range of 90 ft.
|
||
|
|
- Colonel's Endurance (Su): For every active point of bleed you receive DR 5/-
|
||
|
|
this stacks with every point of bleed. As a standard action you can give
|
||
|
|
yourself the bleed condition up to your Sojourner Tier, so long as you carry a
|
||
|
|
broken bladed weapon.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To form a connection with the Chiliarch, you must have been brought below 0 hp
|
||
|
|
and stabilized without outside healing. You must perform a ritual which requires
|
||
|
|
an iron door frame gilded with silvered symbols (100 gp), and ritualized self
|
||
|
|
mutilation of walking on broken glass and cutting yourself with a broken weapon
|
||
|
|
12d4 damage. You must pass a Knowledge (Planes) DC 20 test, but the DC is 4
|
||
|
|
lower for each 5 ranks you have in Profession (soldier). If you have ever lead
|
||
|
|
other intelligent beings to their death in combat, this DC is 4 lower.
|
||
|

### The Lost Hour
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The book also contains a brief description of a deity called The Lost Hour, a
|
||
|
|
being that wanders at will between worlds with a magic map of time, but does not
|
||
|
|
have enough information for rites. It also suggests that the fey have a method
|
||
|
|
of hiding from outer gods, but not what it is.
