The spellcasters in the world of Weyard are called Adepts, all naturally drawing power from one of the four elements. You are one of these spellcasters, and your controlled element is fire. According to legend, as a fire adept, you are descended from the God Mars, and you may exhibit some similar traits to depictions of the god. Your hair and/or eyes might have a red or orange hue, and your body temperature might be slightly warmer than average.
- Skill Proficiencies: Athletics, Intimidation
- Tool Proficiencies: Choose either Glassblower's Tools or Smith's Tools
- Languages: Primordial (Ignan Dialect)
- Equipment: A bottle of black ink, a quill, a small knife, an igneous rock pendant, a set of common clothes, and a pouch containing 10 gp
As a Fire Adept, you can interact with certain magical objects, blessed by Mars, that would be mundane to others. You have a natural affinity for fire and heat, and can sense it's presence. You might be able to sense warm objects or creatures, or locate a nearby campfire. Hot, dry climates don't seem to bother you as much as others, but cold or humid biomes will leave you feeling drained or uneasy.
In addition, if you have the Spellcasting or Pact Magic feature, the spells on the Fire Adept Spells table are added to the spell list of your spellcasting class. (If you are a multiclass character with multiple spell lists, these spells are added to all of them.)
