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 wind. According to legend, as a wind adept, you are descended from the God Jupiter, and you may exhibit some similar traits to depictions of the god. Your hair might have a yellow or green hue, your eyes might be purple or green, and you might find that you are more flexible and slender than the average person.
- Skill Proficiencies: Acrobatics, Stealth
- Tool Proficiencies: Choose either Alchemist's Supplies or Thieves' Tools
- Languages: Primordial (Auran Dialect)
- Equipment: A bottle of black ink, a quill, a small knife, a quartz pendant, a set of common clothes, and a pouch containing 10 gp
As a Wind Adept, you can interact with certain magical objects, blessed by Jupiter, that would be mundane to others. You have a natural affinity for wind and lightning, and can sense it's presence. You might be able to sense a coming storm, or detect a change in air pressure. You are happy when you feel the wind on your skin, and you are uncomfortable going underground. Places with stale, uncirculated air might make you uneasy.
In addition, if you have the Spellcasting or Pact Magic feature, the spells on the Wind 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.)
