Rookery Angel

Rookery is a slang term for a slum, the bad part of town. In Baldur's Gate, that's the Athkatla Slums, but there's an Athkatla in every city. The people there aren't all bad. Most, in fact, are just folk who've gotten a bad shake from Life. Most are simply poor and trying to get by. 

Those people need tending as much as anyone, but the mainstream religions overlook them, these destitute, weak, infirm, these down-trodden souls to cater to the wealthy who give the churches their financial power. 

You used to be a rising student of theology. You were one of them, the mainstream clergy, saying prayers for the aristocrats paying their way to the afterlife. That was before your first trip to Athkatla, a trip that changed everything.

Now you're one of the other them. The poor living in the bad part of town. They're your flock now. They are the ones who need you. 

You've learned some Rogue's skills to get by. Stealing from those who can well afford it. But your days as a Cleric adept brought you into contact with the power of the divine, and you have the gift of healing, the power to confront Evil. A power that's growing inside you.

You're an oddball now for certain. As handy with a set of thieves' tools as with a holy symbol. As useful with a dagger as with a prayer book. And you've come up with a plan a for a way to truly help your flock. 

You've heard tales of and have spoken with adventurers returning from quests where they have recovered great wealth. From the camps of goblins, the dungeons beneath decrepit old castles, the rough mountain lairs of dragons, mounds of gold coin and magical artifacts. Holy relics lost for  hundreds of years. Legendary swords once wielded by long-dead heroes. Enough treasure to feed all of Athkatla for a year for a mere day's work. 

There is a strong pull there, a call to your heart that this is the way for you. It's time to see what the gods have in store for you on the road of adventure. It's time to find your path.

At 17th level, you gain the ability to transform yourself into an avenging angel for one minute. This ability can be used three times between long rests.

The form you assume is a winged humanoid who is so bright, one can't pick out facial details or determine the creature's gender, but it appears roughly 8' tall.

While in this form you are wielding a flaming two handed greatsword but holding it in one hand. The blade is a Greatsword, +3 that does 2d6 slashing + WIS + an additional 3d6 radiant damage on a successful hit.

You are holding a giant shield that reflects light in every direction and you have an armor class of 23. Unless one is already blinded or naturally sightless, they may be blinded in the presence of this shield on a failed Constitution saving throw.

While in angel form you can cast Sunburst, Fire Storm, Earthquake, or Gate. You can cast these spells once each in the three times you take this form, but you must still abide by the one minute length of the transformation.
