Description:
Though the paladin’s typical armor and weapons have long been buried with his body and are lost, the particularly blessed and pious man passed his most prized possession on to his son, expecting the young man to take up the mantle and labor for all things good and just under Zasnas, God Of Judgement. It continued this way, passing from each generation of paladin to the next, all doing the will of Zasnas. Unfortunately, the day came when a young mother passed on gruesomely in battle, so when the book was ultimately passed to her young son, his anger at what he considered to be a traitorous god caused him to fall far from the family tree. Unable to stand the sight of the book and its false promises, he hocked it to a magic peddler, hoping to never see it or hear of Zasnas and his judgments again.
Abilities:
- Plot Ability:
The Divine Scales: Under the guidance of Zasnas, the user will begin to feel in their heart when they are in the presence of those who have acted in ways against his laws. The draw to these sinful creatures will be palpable, and opening the scripture’s empty pages will enlighten the user to the sins of those the God of Judgement wishes to judge. Should the user not yield to the god’s demands, they will endure a painful blight for twenty-four hours or until they correct their erroneous decision, whichever comes first [The user must have OOC permission to use this ability on a player character, a player-owned NPC, or an Event NPC in any form].
Name: Vital Pulse
Rank: User Rank Advanced (Up to S+)
Category: Auxiliary
Type: Passive
Description: Having the ancient book near the user’s body causes a warming sensation to pulse through the body, warming every fiber of muscle and sinew, every bone and tendon. The heartrate grows stronger and remains steady, even under strain. Zasnas has smiled upon the user and uses his divine power to provide a user rank advanced passive buff to HP multiplied by 2x.
Name: Mana Blessing
Rank: User Rank Advanced (Up to S+)
Category: Auxiliary
Type: Passive
Description: The scriptures are warm to the touch, and as the user runs their fingers along the god’s promises, an ancient power absorbs through the skin and runs up the arms in wispy gold swirls. Zasnas shares some of his divine magic power with the user he uses as an instrument of his judgment, buffing either their MP or SP by a user rank advanced passive increase multiplied by 2x. Use it well.

Description: Inside the book of Zasnas’s divine words are many requirements, rules, and orders any devout paladin worth their salt is expected to adhere to. Should their worship of the god and their judgments weigh true, the last page of the book, which was formerly blank, will reveal itself in a flash of blinding light! Like every other tattered parchment page within the book, the writing is subtle and shimmering gold. The curling calligraphy is hard to read, but not impossible.
“Come, Hyzdon, ultimate servant of lord Zasnas, and aid thy devout follower. Reign judgment!”
A leather hilt topped with a golden sphere will emerge from the pages. Should the user grab it, they will be compelled to draw it the rest of the way out, revealing a sword, and throw it. Don’t worry, it won’t hit the ground. It will hover, drawing metal from the ground and surroundings to form into proper armor. The blade glows a ghastly pale blue from, serving as the silent soul within. It’s a golem of sorts, but acts on its own as it sees fit with little regard for the user. As long as it remains within the ability's MT range of the book and user, it will hold form and relentlessly attack those judged guilty by his god by swinging or throwing its mace or with potentially bone-shattering kicks and punches. Should it forego MT damage, once per post the golem’s ethereal glow will intensify and then release a blinding light pulse from within the armor to damage any enemy within the ability's Burst range of it, also blinding them for one post, though they can only be blinded once every other post. Foes must be hit again to be blinded again. If the Multi Target version of this attack is chosen, the golem can peform a number of attacks equal to the maximum duration of this ability in any given post it is active. The golem possesses HP equal to 25% of the user's max HP and vanishes upon reaching 0 HP or when the duration of this ability is over. This golem can use either Spell Damage or Strength as basis for its damage calculations, though only one may be chosen in any given thread and cannot be changed for the remaining duration of the thread once chosen. The user must declare which stat is used upon activation of this ability.
