The Storykeeper

Path of the Storykeeper Barbarians hold to the stories of those gone before and protect the stories of those they surround themselves with. Often enraged when those stories are put in danger, they call on heroes of old and feats of legend to protect the stories they desire to protect.

Hero's Quest and Call

Starting when you choose this archetype at level 3, you gain the ability to call upon the attributes of legendary archetypes during your rage. This archetype is determined by rolling on the Archetype table.
